    Hello,

    I am making a short film and trying to learn after effects in the process. One scene requires a box falling to the floor and breaking. Out of the box run a dozen miniature horses. Assuming I have a high angle shot of horses running in a pack and a separate shot of the living room floor on which they are supposed to run, can anyone tell me how I might use After Effects to blend these together to make it look like the horses are actually running on the floor and not in a field? I am thinking of a look like Honey I Shrunk the Kids. I appreciate any guidance anyone can give me.

    Thanks

    luma, chroma, or roto extract the horses then screen or add mode transfer them in with light spill so they don’t have a hard edge and finally color correct them. The perspective camera angles have to match too. Any pov of small objects looking up could also use wide angle lenses.
