For
this exercise I have cut the clip into two sections. In
the first section the bug is near his head. This is easier
and faster to fix since I can work on a few frames all
at once. I can do this because of the static background.
In the second part, once the insect is in front of his
face, I have to remove it frame by frame.
Debugging
Part 1:(When the bug is not in front of his face.)
First,
I needed to remove the region through which the bug was
flying.
The
black box in the upper left is an area that has been removed
from the footage using the Mask:Shape filter. In
order to apply the Mask:Shape filter to your clip,
you first double click on the clip so that it appears
in the Viewer.
Next
choose the filter from the menu shown in fig 10. (EFFECTS:VIDEO
FILTERS:MATTE:MASK SHAPE, and it will be applied to
the clip.
To
verify that it has been applied to the clip, click on
the filters tab in the Viewer.
