Thursday 22 March

After todays session, I went up after class to experiment with some After Affects Compositions. The clip I was going to use was the video of when James is walking down that road for a minute. My plan was to rotoscope James out so that I could place the text on the road, as if they where road prints. 

How I did this was straight from Premiere Pro, I exported the clip into After Effects. From here I opened it into a Composition layer. I clicked on the Roto Brush Tool. 

I then made sure to select James, and I let After Effects go through the clip. To ensure it did it better, I made sure to select version 2.0. This is far better at selecting the subject.  Whenever there was a mistake in the video, I paused it and reselected him. 

After it was finished, I froze the clip and started placing the text. I made sure to check the 3D box so that it would be placed in 3D space.

I placed the Text and the sequence was finished.
