Unwanted Person in video

[IncMedia]

What do I do if someone changed their mind on being in a music video. After it is finished. Is that my problem or the record labels problem?

If they signed a release, it's their problem.

If they didn't sign a release, it's *all* of your problems.

It's up to an entertainment attorney to sort it out.

Can't you just blur or mosaic their face?

That'd be interesting... one person in the whole video blurred out...

I'm not up on the legal agreements and all that jazz, so I won't try to sound like I am...

I am sure there is a way to edit the person out without hurting the scene. I guess it would be similiar to how they edit action scenes like in the Matrix, where they remove the cables that are attached to the actors for scenes that have them flying around all over the place. I am not sure what kind of software they use to do that or even how they do it.

you can replace them with Jar Jar binks..

I had this happen once. We had to digitally remove the person from the video. Thankfully, she wasn't in it that much and didn't move around a lot.

if you can post a frame grab, maybe we can figure out how a way to deal with it.
