Hey Dave!
Did not know the concept of a garbage mask yet, thanks for the tip, I’ll try it next time!
Take care, Simon

Dear Dave,
I changed the color of the cloth to a more vibrant red. I first tried to pull a key with primatte bud did not succeed. That’s why I turned to masking it. Which technique would you have suggested?
Best regards, Simon

Dear All,
thank you for your help, it’s so much appreciated.
Imm masking a piece of cloth which a woman folds out and arranges it on the floor, for most of the frames the form of the cloth changes so fast and in so many directios that interpolating the frames seems to be no option.
I tried both working with keyframes from the edge frames inwards and Rotobrush, but did not reach successfull results. It might be because of my low level of knowledge, I think I need to understand the refinement parameters of those methods better, but the masks I got where not excact enough.
In the end I found a workaround: I exported the frames as a image sequence, made a mask for every frame in photoshop and re-imported in After Effects. Maybe not the fastest approach but I am sattisfied with the result.
Thank you so much for your help,
best regards, SImon

Hey guys,
thanks for your remarks.

No, I can’t reshoot with BlueScreen. Im not such an expert in rotoscoping so Im thinking about masking every single frame in Photoshop, should be faster, at least for me.

Thanks again, I really appreciate your help,
Best, Simon

Hey David,
as Allen in the other post explained it, Premiere exports the multicamera view with sharp cuts (no lead and end room), and exactly that is the problem. Of course, I’m talking about effect blending for AE, not conventional blending which could be done in Premiere.

Anyone got a clue?
