Hey thanks for the swift response. i really appreciate your help.

so a reshoot is out of the quesstion, as it was shot a while ago with a redcam which we no longer have.

this is our first project and yes many mistakes were made. as you said planning this would have been helpful lol

the talent does indeed cross the window, and i have created the window mask around her shape. again i must say that i have little idea what i am doing in this field. but nevertheless i am the one doing it.

Essentially we need the inside reflection without the outside tree. i have masked out the windows using a solid and creating an ‘alpha matte’ i believe its called. it is animated to go around the talent as she sits down and looks out the window. this part i have managed ok i believe.

picture a camera in the middle isle of a train, shooting towards one side where the seats are. there is a faint reflection we need of the talent. and then there is a static tree in the background.

is there a way to recreate the reflection? or clone/mask/remove, the tree with minimal damage to the reflection? as the tree is in the more transparent part of the reflection.
