  • NEED HELP with 360 degree image sequence

    Posted by George Shubin on October 23, 2008 at 9:21 pm

    Calling all Cow-sters!

    I have a project that is a image sequence taken with a 360 degree camera. The problem is that there is some graffiti on the walls of the buildings as the people run through the alleyway, the client wants this to disappear.

    Now does anyone know of way to correct for the 360 lens distortion then do the rotos (or whatever to get rid of the graffiti), then return the distortion so it can be viewed as a complete 360 sequence?

    Or are there other ideas out there?

    If you want to see what I am dealing with, have a look at the image link below:

    Any help/ideas would be appreciated.

    Thanks,
    George Shubin

    WHy not just do the roto directly on the sequence as it is? It also looks like you could mask out an area and paste it over the graffiti. With some tracking it doesn’t look too intimidating.

    yes, that was my first take as well, and ultimately that is probably what is going to happen. The problem arises because of the distortion from the lens. The brick line just below the graffiti is curved slightly different then the brick above it, so the lines don’t quite match up. Of course I can bezier distort it to match, but I was hoping that there might be something a little overall I could apply.

    The difference is quite small. I would try a single frame to see how they match up. There is Effect>Distort>OpticsCompensation which is worth a look.

    Good Luck
