So basically the guy is turning as the camera comes down? I could understand why it would be difficult to track and replace the screen. Not only is the screen turning (which is really hard to track), but there must be some motion blur in there unless the guy isn’t turning very fast.
If the guy really is just turning on himself, why not try animating most of the thing by hand?

What are trying to do exactly? What is the shot? maybe there is a simpler work around

Basic answer : Will you keep doing alot of freelance? If yes, eat up the fees, make your 200$ and revel in the fact that you’re now up to date and in the clear.
If this is something you do on the side every other month or so, outsource the project to someone else for less. Give that guy 600$ or something and collect the profit.

1- In your comp, scroll over your white area and check in your info palette to see if your white truly is white (255,255,255). If you see more blue value in your white, then thats your problem.
2- Check to see if your plasma is properly calibrated, play with its color settings and such. Maybe you’re in some mode that gives everything a bluish tint. Consumer TVs are manufactured in a way to try and make things look better. They don’t accurately represent what the original image is.

Very well said.
Unfortunately the scene I am working with was a complete nightmare. Camera B was 2 stops below Camera A, they both weren’t properly white balanced and the lighting changes in pretty much every scene. Up to now I’ve managed to make everything look good, its just that its all a bit noisy cause I’ve had to play with the saturations alot just to get the right look I was looking for.
I tried playing with curves a bit, but still the noise remains… no biggie though, the rest of the movie seems to be fine. Its just this one scene that needed ALOT of attention

Terrific post! very informative!
I didn’t try using the channel combiner, BUT, I did take your advice on duplicating the layer and setting its mode to Color then desaturate the dup layer and it worked like a charm! No more noise

Ya sheer costs about 150$ I believe, but you can get a 20 day free trial.
Its a good alternative to Animation cause its compression scheme is AWESOME, it creates super small files compared to Animation. In my opinion its the codec of choice for your situation

At first guess it would be a bit depth problem… but im no expert

I faced a similar situation.
If you want to transfer Quictime DVCpro footage from MAC to PC with lossless quality, use the Sheer codec.

It somewhat worked, but I’m going to try and re-render it as DV footage
