Failed Video

Damn :( ....that sucks.........well..isn't there...anything you can salvage from it? I'd hate to see all your hard work down the drain like that :(
It's ok, it just cost me a few hours today :) I'll recoup and film something else tomorrow. I can save a tshirt montage I did at the end lol. This was going to be my 100 sub special.

I don't think you should abandon it. I mean you spent all those hours on that one video so that means you care about your content + you are serious about it. Maybe just post it up and look back at it later to see what you think you could improve on? Since you worked so hard on it I'm sure the people watching will love it.
It's hard for me to finish editing it if I know the problems can't be fixed. I'll take another look and see if I can pick and choose clips out of it. I just don't want to put out anything that's half assed. I rather reshoot the entire damn thing tomorrow.
 
Same boat, dude. You don't *have* to have a masking line though, do you? If you feather the edge of your mask?

I'm still working on one - had to spend about 2 hours with luma key. Freakin shadow was darker than me >.< So much for easy compositing.

Well I'm glad you can save a piece of it!! Yeah live and learn I guess!! Tomorrow, you'll have it perfect :) No doubt.
 
Why abandon ? :(
Cuz it looks stupid to me. :crying:

Man that sucks! I actually like your screenshots, they look like it could have been something really good.

It should have been if I planned it out better haha.

Heart breaking, isn't it :(

It's ok, it's a learning experience.[DOUBLEPOST=1370406323,1370406240][/DOUBLEPOST]

The only way I can see getting through it is key framing each frame in After Effects and making sure that feather is tight. I literally have one clone's hand over another clone's face at a few points lol.

I want to do clones some day, but then I kind of get scared of all this stuff you have to do.

Ahhhhh. Okay, yeah, you're talking frame-by-frame garbage masking for something like that. Suicide would be preferable.[DOUBLEPOST=1370406682,1370406620][/DOUBLEPOST]

Pfffft, it's not so bad. I'm about six hours in, including writing, and all I have left is some audio to record :-)

Just don't have one clone punch another clone in the face, and you're good :P
