LIE

fixed
Without it. It´s an even more hard and annoying work.
I rotoscoped this week a 7 seconds scene and it was sure: If you know how to use it, it can bring you much more forward and a big adventage. However it is still superer to the magic wand tool.

Ah damn... There are 7 more seconds to go -.-' Damn project!

hey, sorry, but i got another question...

For some reason, I am not able to continue a series of anchors on a the frame im working with. I lay down the first few anchors, then I have to adjust the the picture to bring more of it into few, but when I do this it ends my string and wont let me continue it, making it impossible to cut out all of ed's body (FMA). is there something im not doing right??

I think that you are right. I'm afraid you have to do this with all frames. Tell me if I'm wrong. ;)

nnnnnn... yes maybe.

If you take the bodie and rotoscope it out you can easly crop it and place it on the video in a different layer (if you mean that).

Yes you will need it. I guess Koop made all the rotoscopeing in Photoshop and loaded an image sequence (or every image alone, I don´t know if Magix supports image sequences) into Magix (or it already has a vetor tool today).
Its just too perfect that cropping
Maybe it was already the original size of the source.

You don´t have to add the settings to every frame. There are some ways to avoid it (image sequences, project sequences in Premiere, or simpel videos with RGBA colourspace). *shrugs*
In the end it´s often not more than simpel Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V to paste the settings over all the images. Fast and simpel.

Thank You.

Im working on real footage its very hard to crop all frames (camera shake, unregular fills, ...) what i have been doing is using the pen and crop a person and using a keyframe in every frame with a diferent crop (mask shape) in after effects. It´s just too hard.

I´ll try the rotoscope thing... anime seems to be less difficult.
