Hi
I am trying to key frame a head of a person from a picture onto a short clip of video of a person playing soccer.
I have cropped the head of the person in PS and saved it as a tiff file. When I add it to the timeline above the video clip and drag the scrubber across I can see the video behind the head just fine (except for the two black vertical bars on either side sort of framing the head and video) which no isn’t exactly what I want. Then just to try it out I add Picture in Picture to key frame the head to the movement of the play. When PP is added there is a black box behind the whole thing and you can’t see any of the video behind the head?
I have never tried this effect before so I’m not sure of how to go about it.
If anyone could give some advice (step by step even better) I would really appreciate it!
Thanks
Rick
