    I am trying to take some tennis footage without a greenscreen and isolate the player. Is there a couple of automated ways of doing this beside rotoscoping?

    Depending on the tennis court (grass vs. clay), you might be able to pull a key anyway.

    If not, here are some tips, tricks, and techniques [link] that can make rotoscoping much faster.

    Any chance that it’s a locked-down shot? If so, you might be able to pull a difference matte using a clean background plate.
