Removing shoes from the frame

[Garinion]

Hello

When I was shooting my movie some of the crew left their shoes in the frame .. and unfortunately I noticed that on the editing ...

It's possible to remove ? the actors walk over the shoes and I think it makes it more difficult ...

Here I have you some pic .. and clean shot (from other take)
Thanks !!!!

Yeah, no biggy with after effects. Just some brave handwork.

1. Stabilize your footage
2. cut the spot from your clean shot with a mask and cover the shoes on a second layer
3. use a third layer from the shoes clip and roto her feet over the other 2 layers.
Blend everything in with soft masks, maybe ad some shadow.

Should be done in less than an hour.

Here is just a quick and dirty one

Seems that some of the crew left the lights in the shot also....

Seems to me both the shoes and lights could be eliminated by zooming in a bit on the clip in post. There'd be a bit of a resolution hit, but it might be acceptable, especially if the footage is HD.
