When the weather is not that good outside, what do you do? I decided to play around with a snippet of video and try out some compositing with video.

What did I try? I wanted a piece of text to move with something in the background and vanish behind a piece of foreground.

So what did I learn?

• Next time I use only stabilized imagery – the handheld footage is good enough for the poc (proof of concept).
• I have to work on the 3d-text effect, it still has its problems.
• I have to work on the synchronisation of the movement of background and foreground.

But enough talk – here is the video. I’ll be outside….
