Hi all,
I was just shooting a short film today and one of my shot got dirty because of a light stand..the problem is the light stand is visible in the shot..since the camera is not moving in the shot I was thinking how to subtract that stand from the frame????
Please let me know how to do this..should I use garbage matte ?
Please explain me how to do this either in PP2 or AE 7.0..

For some reason i cannot re shoot this and this has become a huge issue now..
I would really appreciate any help/advise on this...

-thanks
Vivek
 
1. export a full progressive frame

2. bring it into photoshop and paint out the offending stand

3. cut that cleaned stand area and a small feather to a new layer and leave the background transparent.

4. Bring the psd into After Effects or Premiere and lay the patch over top of your footage.

5. Profit
 
Very Good..Thanks you..sounds good..I will try that today...

will let you know if I face any issue..
