Hi Jack

i have done several fixes like you describe with Re:Flex and it is a very useful plugin. Try to use the automatic alignment feature that will help you when morphing between features that look alike, like the same person, and save you from doing too many splines. Re:Flex also has the ability to blend the different splines at different speed, and that can really help to make the transition more organic looking.

just a few tips :-)

Thanks, Pete from Re:Vision got to me last night and I think I'm on my way. I'll let you know how it goes.

I am working on a feature where they did a one take wonder if a scene and the removed a minute from the middle of the scene. I have to try and move each character to a slightly different position a few frames apart. It's a night scene so I can get away wjth more, plus it's a lock off.

i remember a few years ago we pitched a job and we were betting heavily on a morph solution. I did a test on two stills and it worked great. But when i tried to do it again on stills from the shoot, everyrthing went haywire.... I spent hours and hours drawing and redrawing really intricate masks and the results still came out really unsatisfactory. Maybe I was doing it wrong. Maybe the plug-in has improved. Anyhow if you get it to work I would love to see the results.
