  Is it possible to manipulate filmed person moving?

  Posted by Erik Høirup on May 7, 2014 at 3:19 pm

  Hi,

  I am working on some greenscreenfootage, where the actor is movin her head too much in a certain direction. The client was present at the shot, and approved the takes, but now – after – they ask me if I can manipulate the movement of her head, so it doesn´t move as much to the right as it is right now. Filming again, is not possible, this had to be done in post.

  Any cool suggestion as to how this might be possible?

  Thanks,

  Erik

  Hi everybody,

  Thank you for your answers. I have tried the puppet tool, but since the person is in movement, it doesn´t work very very. Unfortunately I cannot post the video, due to restrictions in the contract, so I will give it a shot more today – and then ask my client what Dave suggested, eventhough they say it´s a no-go refilming, it might get ridiculus expensive in post anyway, so better evaluate now which solution is the best 🙂

  Thanks for your help!

  Regards,
