Progress

So I have been keying out certain clips from the footage I shot so that I can put them into AfterEffects. I found out some thing cool that I think might be a benefit to some one.

When I saved the movie in FinalCut Pro with the green screen like I said before. When I keyed it out in AfterEffects I realised that I had some edges on some of the clips that I didn't notice in Final Cut. I started to panic and thought that I had to do over the whole keying thing again, but AfterEffects must have had some thing to use.

Under the same Keylight Effect there is an option right at the bottom that says Source Crops. It allows you to crop the video and better yet, you can key frame it. So if your subject keeps moving, like mine, you can key frame the crop from left to right and so on just as your subject is moving like that.

I can show you what I'm talking about with the problem with the sides. Youre going to have to wait until the final project to see the correction.
