1) Stabilize Camera (otherwise our trail will follow the camera movement, not the player movement)

2) Use the luma channel to isolate hair, auto trace masks and add some manually

3) Spend too long making particles 👍

4) Add glow and smoke

5) Color correct + final details


Shirt Remove_Comparison3.mp4

🚧 Removing a logo from a hard hat and shirt

These logos needed to be removed in a series of different shots.

The process here is to make multiple clean versions of the hat and shirt and track them onto the man as he walks towards the camera. You need multiple clean versions to account for lighting changes (see below ⬇️ images).

Armpit_difference.mp4

✨ Removing an armpit stain for a product video. The full shot was ~10 seconds.

I cut a hole where the stain was, rotoscoped the arm over the hole, and created multiple non-stain versions to put under the hole.

The tricky thing here is to account for the shirt fabric as it morphs as she moves her arm.
