    Hi people!!

    I don’t know how ‘doable’ this is!! Maybe your expert minds can help me with it!!!
    I have two videos, one which shows a rectangular mirror on a wall
    and another one that shows somebody posing. How can I do to make it look than that person is in front of the mirror?
    should I create a mask? what if somebody passes in front of the
    mirror and hides the reflection partially? could it be done?

    thanks in advance !!!!

    Would have been better if your subject posing had been shot in front of a green screen.

    To remind you, I hope you shot your subject with 2 different camera angles so that we will see him, for example, posing in the mirror from his back, and in the mirror we’ll see his face, and his front body… See what I mean? Like two cameras from two opposite angles.

    Good luck.
