  AE Import Image over Video

  Posted by Donald Bybee on March 30, 2010 at 7:29 pm

  I have a video of a superhero and need to figure out a way to use AE to inlay an image of a building over the entire video. So it looks like he is standing on it. Is there a simple solution?

  In a word: no.

  There are so many variables in this question that it is impossible to give you a helpful answer.

  Assuming the superhero was not shot on greenscreen, you need to draw a mask (rotoscope) around the super hero, then place a shot of the building under the hero in the timeline.

  That’s the thing since I intend to use a greenscreen behind him so I can replace it with some non time lapsed moving clouds.
