Or, personally, I would put this part of the clip into AE and keyframe the people 'out' and put a text sign in the background... Using layers as perspective again... Now, that's still A LOT OF pain work, like what we did with putting wings on an actor's back (from the trailer posted at our site www.rapturethemovie.com), where we have to cut the actor out of the background, lay the wings on him, place another copy of him in front, and then cut the other actor's out so the wings doesn't cover him, then apply some 'feather' to make it blurry, and then add shadow so it looks like there's shadow reflecting from behind the actor sitting down. :) Time spent doing this (from cutting to cg wings to posting all together = 24 hours (without counting the time the wings were made with maya)
The other way, make the text in several photoshop files (some full, some half, etc) and probably do a 'frame by frame' way within premiere to slowly emerge the sign or cover it... I know there *might* be another way to keying the character out of premiere, but I have no idea how to do that...

I have a clip of a couple dancing, the camera following them as they move around the room. What I would like is to post a "sign" at a specific place on the wall behind them, so that when the couple move, they would appear to be moving in front of the sign, away from it, etc. I suppose the easiest way would be to make and post a "real" sign--next time? --- In [email protected], "Johnny K.
