i’m not sure if i’m understanding you right, but can’t you just decrease the opacity of the top layer, revealing the bottom 1?

cool ok, think i get what you mean!

open the comp were you want to see the changes happening (not the one your making the changes in) and right click in the composition window and go to new/viewer. then drag the new composition window to where ever you want it.
now open the comp you’re making the changes in, you are now free to edit the other composition in another window and see the changes that are being made.

hope all is cool

hi, i use a similar script and send it to a hotmail account once. in the 1st email window you have to type your server address. if you go file/scripts/email_setup.jsx it’ll tell you what that is there. and then in the 2nd email window you type in your email address, blahblahblah@gmail.com

hope that helps

Hi Georgiana,

I am not a afx genius or anything like that, but if it were me, I would duplicate the layer with the rubbish you wish to remove, create a mask on a clean section of sky, add a slight feather to the mask, motion track the garbage and place the masked sky over the top linking it to the tracking key frames.

job done! Someone please correct me if they feel I am wrong.

not sure how much movement you have in your shot(s) but shouldn’t be too difficult getting it to look good I think.

maybe a little long winded, but you could export your video as a jpeg sequence and then manually corrupt your jpegs in text edit as you mentioned earlier. if its only a couple of seconds here and there, hopefully it shouldn’t take too long.
