Why we like it

Earns its place in the aescripts library as a dedicated bridge between mocha and After Effects, with support that reaches from the newest 2026 build all the way back to CS4.

What is MochaImport+?

MochaImport+ from mamoworld tools connects mocha and After Effects, streamlining how tracking data moves between the two. With it you can create stabilized precomps and transfer masks, effect points, and layers from one application to the other, then distort them in perspective.

The plugin supports a broad set of corner pin and warp effects. Alongside the options built into After Effects, including Corner Pin, CC Power Pin, Bezier Warp, and Card Dance, it works with third-party effects such as Red Giant Warp Corner Pin, BCC Corner Pin, RE:Map Planar, and Sapphire Warp Corner Pin. Added capabilities include keyframing tracked masks, sending masks to and from a stabilized precomp, KBar integration, and scripting.

Compatibility runs from After Effects 2026 back to CS4, covering both current and legacy installs. The most recent update, version 6.0.014, addresses online activation and refreshes the license framework. A demo video is available.

Who is MochaImport+ best for?

MochaImport+ is best for after Effects artists who track shots in mocha and need to bring that data, along with masks and layers, back into their compositions.

How much does MochaImport+ cost?

Frequently asked questions

What After Effects versions does MochaImport+ support?

MochaImport+ is compatible with a wide range of After Effects versions, from the latest 2026 release back through 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, and 2020, as well as the CC 2019 through CC 2014 cycle and the older CS6, CS5.5, CS5, and CS4 editions. That span covers both current subscription builds and legacy Creative Suite installs, so the plugin fits into older pipelines alongside modern ones. Check the developer's page to confirm details for your specific setup.

Which corner pin effects does MochaImport+ work with?

MochaImport+ can distort layers in perspective using several corner pin and warp effects. It works with the options included in After Effects itself, namely Corner Pin, CC Power Pin, Bezier Warp, and Card Dance. Beyond those, it also supports third-party effects including Red Giant Warp Corner Pin, BCC Corner Pin, RE:Map Planar, and Sapphire Warp Corner Pin. That range lets you apply mocha tracking data through whichever of these effects your project already relies on.

What changed in MochaImport+ version 6.0.014?

MochaImport+ version 6.0.014, released on November 11, 2025, focuses on activation. It includes a fix for online activation connection issues and updates the underlying license framework to version 4.4.1. Earlier releases addressed compatibility with comps created in Premiere Pro, resolved a 'Folder is null' error, and added support for time-limited licenses and newer operating systems. If you had trouble activating the plugin previously, this build is the one to install.

Is MochaImport+ free?

MochaImport+ is listed as free in this catalog. Licensing terms can change over time, and the developer, mamoworld tools, handles activation directly, so the most reliable place to confirm current pricing and license conditions is the developer's page. The recent updates also touched the plugin's activation and license framework, which is worth keeping in mind if you run into sign-in issues during setup.
