All,
A couple weeks ago, I posted a message about this ROTO
effort that a producer wanted in which they hadn't had
approval for a certain location and now wanted me to like
change all of the background which was pretty much impossible.
I was finally able to explain that it just could be done
without being noticed and they wanted me to fake a depth of
field thing, etc. Anyway, I'm off the hook on that. So, I'm
on the same project and use that as a lead in to this.
It's a time lapse thing where you see some young girls
growing up, not sure, let's say 10 yrs maybe and so they want
the guys beard to also change to more grays/whites in the
latter half of the movie. I haven;t even begun to look yet
but rest assured, you see the guy in probably 90% of the the
remaining scenes.
My initial response is, you have to be kidding me. Is this
even a realistic objective to thing you can motion track and
recolor a beard for half of a movie? It's a lot of action and
movement, not like a paraplegic in a bed or something but
before I jump on this as a pessimist, what is the take of the
brains in this group?
Thanks ahead.
Eric
