Intro to Matte Work (34)
Now that we're familiar with Blender's Compositor, we can start exploring features it offers that cannot be done with the Video Sequence Editor. First up is editing mattes - that is to say, how to get Blender to distinguish between the subject and background in a movie file. By doing that, we can "extract" the subject and use it elsewhere.
The footage recorded didn't give good clean results for any of the 3 methods shown. I chose to keep it to demonstrate the garbage in garbage out principle :)
