Answers.Body: <p>What you're looking for is called <strong>planar tracking.</strong> Instead of tracking points, planar tracking tracks whole clusters of pixels within a rectangle, or a plane (hence the name planar). Fortunately ,most After Effects versions come with a basic version of the most popular planar tracker, Boris FX Mocha. Just search &quot;Mocha AE&quot; in the Effects &amp; Presets panel.</p>

  <p>Problem is that video is static shot, is not a track movement. So, I watched videos that explain how to make Motion 3D Tracking, with the Camera track, but it does not work, and I think is due to my video is static. So, how can I put another video with perspective there? I mean, I want to use something similar to the PS Perspective Crop Tool.</p>

  If it's a static shot, you don't need any tracking at all.
  
  Use the built-in Corner Pin tool to reposition the corners of the thing you want to stick on the wall:
