 Day 17: 2020-10-28 continuing with the mirror

Today I continued to work on getting rid of the background of the mirror and replacing it with my reflection walking in the background. It took me all class today as I am going by every few frames, I am now 3/4 done that scene (including working on the brightness difference).

This is where I lift off at the end of class, I now need to find out which layer is causing this lighting issue on the bottom left of the scene. In this scene there is around 6 layers overlapping each other all with different lighting and certain parts cut out just to hide the brightness problem.

Here is a frame of the cutting the edges. The hardest part besides my face with making sure the top line is at the exacts position as if its to high you will easily notice a very dark like and if its to low you will see a bright line, I have to make sure it reaches the middle so there is no lighting difference.

I have finally finished the right side of the mirror and I am now working on the left side of the mirror and getting rid of my original reflection. The one thing I might fix is making the right side less contrast as there is alot of contrast of my moving reflection to match the brightness.

Next class I will be possibly lowering the contrast on the right side of the mirror and I will be continuing to cut / mask the right side of the mirror which is almost done. If I finish that I will start of the next scene of go back to the previous scene to fix the brightness on that.
