Need Help-Rotoscoping the actor (face and clothes)

[Todd Kopriva]

There are some great video tutorials about rotoscoping linked to from this page. I especially recommend the Pete O’Connell videos, which are from the Creative COW rotoscoping DVD.

Thanks. I just looked at Pete’s video and he doesn’t cover what I’m looking for. Everyone talks about animations and adding background, etc…I’m just looking for a video that tells me how to paint clothes and an individual. Most of these videos focus too much on animation. Do you know of any videos or website that only focuses on coloring clothes and pictures (not on photoshop)?

Thanks.

Dave, I did what you told me and the image did improve, so thank you. However, the white collar is very bright and the black sweater has some white spots and I don’t know how to fix it. How can I improve those two?

Here is a sample of what I’m referring to: https://s912.photobucket.com/albums/ac329/EMVA_photo/

Thanks,

one more thing….i was looking at the other frames and I noticed the face has some white spots too. How can I fix it?

Hey Dave,

I have to admit, the lighting is poor.

The video was filmed using a green screen background.

I used keylight, curve, and hue/saturation.

It’s an old camera, Canon XL1.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks
