Sky Replacement
by Reuben Lemer on Jan 15, 2008

Great tutorial! I just have a few queries;

a. Why did you use linear wipe instead of just a feathered mask? Surely an effect like that would take more rendering time?

b. Why didn't you just key out the background at the beginning and put the sky behind the footage?

Thanks,
