  Photoshop Video & Making it 3D!!!

  Posted by John Benton on February 6, 2014 at 3:24 am

  In photoshop I use the “color range” Selection menu to do very detailed (but automatic selections)
  I can easily select dozens of foreground > middle > background alpha channeled images
  separate the layers a bit and you have an interesting pseudo 3D “Model” built of layers.

  But it is a still image
  & I want to do this with Video

  I am wondering it there is a way to do such a “color selection ” for every frame uniquely
  so that I can divide my video into many “layers” of foreground middle & back automatically
  without having to “animate a mask” with motion tracking.
  (or maybe there is a better automatic way to do it with masking)

  I actually think it might be More difficult in After Effects

  Thanks in advance

  In Photoshop you’d have to do it frame by frame, unless the objects you want to isolate aren’t moving. In After Effects, you could use the RotoBrush, and save days worth of time.
