Comedian background (Watchmen movie)

Just for fun, I tried to see if I could replace the green screen with some artwork from the graphic novel. Didn't work out as well as I hoped.
This is from the recently released behind the scenes look at "Watchmen," based on the classic graphic novel by Alan Moore. The movie hits theaters 03.06.09

You just have to move the background with the camera, so it doesnt look like the house is shaking. Probably know that though.

[GlumPhoenix]

Yeah, I probably could do that but it would take forever.

[ANewMan17]

Yeah, if you could somehow get the camera still, it would look a little more believable. :-)

[GlumPhoenix]

Well, I didn't shoot this. :P

@GlumPhoenix Matchmoving doesn't take that much time. You could even do it with a simple 2 point track.

hmm, well this was posted a year ago... but you would need tracking points on the green screen to matchmove the BG. but of course, you would need more software. just google matchmaking or motion tracking.
