Unique Chroma Key Question
Hi,
Fist post here, but I have been following Creative Cow for a number of years now and thought this would be a good place to ask for help.
I am trying to have someone sit on a chroma key background in some way. The character is a king, and we don’t have the budget to actually buy a throne, so I would like to create one digitally. I’m just not sure how to do it.
The camera can thankfully be stationary for the shot so the background can be static. Do I need to create a throne shaped object out of my chroma key color and apply my design to the 3D surface? IF do how would I do that in AE?
Any input is helpful, I have done chroma key work before including pretty complex simultaneous camera and actor moment, just never with someone sitting. I don’t even know what terms I would Google for to find more information about something like this.
Thanks,

Kai –
Here are some things which will help you out – with a locked off shot, the only issue will be matching the scene to the king as far as lighting and camera angle:
