Rig Removal Update w/ extras

After working with the footage for a great deal of time, I have realized that removing the barrel from the footage was only the start to cleaning up the clip.
The matchmove came out pretty good, but because of its small problems, the sides of the road had to be feathered greatly. I had to remove many parts of the gun that I intended the road to cover.

This clip is the removal before the road was added. As you will see, there is still rig removal needed for the right side of the clip. The left side of the clip is very clean after many hours of work.

Here the road has been added. There is a great deal of color correction that needs to be done. I’ve requested to Chris that he make a rgb matte for the road’s distance as well an rgb matte for end to end. This will give me x,y accuracy throughout the entire cg road. Also, he has given me a procedural dirt pass for the right side of the road. It might come in hand in aiding the removal of gun.

This clip contains the rough roto applied back on top of the clip. As you will see, there is some roto that still needs to be complete.
Once the road is graded, it might be possible to feather back in the details,especially in the fabric, from the original cilp.

The additional rig removal has put me behind schedule. My goal is to have the rig completely removed and color graded cg road.
