    hi. I have several hour long videos captured from video game scenes that i am trying to put together in a timelapse.
    i have this annoying circle in the middle used in the HUD of the game. What is the best way that i can hide this without distorting the quality?
    (its in the center. )
    keep in mind that the lighting and movement changes gradually so im not sure if one-frame edits will do.
    heres an example.

    The link isn’t clickable, but a quick copy into the url bar does the trick.

    Try the clone brush tool in AE.

    Or mask it off, and put a second copy of the footage underneath, moving the lower layer over by a few pixels.
