Set Extension - Before & After

[LeoLion96]

How did you key the sand without the skin keying, they're a really similar tone?

track and matte on the first like 2 seconds are a bit off, but other than that minor mistake,great job. :)

Hi Al, did you keyed out the shadows too? did you use mocha to track the extension or just the tracking with AE? Thanks

[al28283]

@krakadyll yep, keyed it in AE and got the shadows in there too. No need for mocha with a shot like this as it's just a 2d track so you can do it all in AE or any other compositing software

@al28283 Thanks Brotha!!! Keep it up...

so talented

So wait....How did you do this? I'm kind of new at the program but VERY interested.  If it wasn't rotoscoping, how? You keyed out the sand and ocean?

[PyromaniacStudios]

If I understand it right, the sand was color corrected to look like snow. Otherwise he could have just shot this on a green screen.

[al28283]

not quite, the sand is a solid colour so it acts as kinda a greenscreen and is wasy to key out

[PyromaniacStudios]

Ah I see. That works pretty well then even if the key isn't completely perfect.

@al28283 Do you use adobe after affects?

[Dirtymurder]

Iv seen this done before with cats, double sided sticky tape and BigRed chewing gum, didnt look quite the same. And if you don't like BigRed FUCK YOU

[al28283]

double sided sticky tape is for noobs!

[Kie77]

Wow! How did you do that with no greenscreen? Was it all by rotoscoping? If so it'd take ages?

[al28283]

lol, no. Rotoing is borrrrrring. I keyed it using a few different values to get a decent matte. Around his legs looks horrible up close but it works well enough
