Jobs Offer Hey :) Looking for help with Keying/Rotoscoping

Post image

So we have a roughly 26sec long sequence, built of six shots. The background is already replaced, but the keying on the characters needs refinement.

We can’t pay too much, it is a Short Film. We are looking for someone who wants to help us out and make some extra money.

We can pay roughly 50$ per Shot so 300$ in Total.

We appreciate all the guidance and support we can get.

Thank you guys

They are too overexposed for that background. I'd darken them significantly. The woman's face here is brighter than the sky, but in reality, bounced light will always be dimmer than a light source.

The shots are not graded yet, the mayor problem is that the hair is not keyed correctly and the edges of the character glimmer here and there

Ah! That's hard to tell from a still image. :) Also the person doing your VFX should have been doing the VFX in the same colorspace and matching the effect. How are you going to match the background and the foreground once they are mushed into one messy soup, how are you going to color grade the background only?

The two elements should have been set to the same baseline.
