RayRay - 12 Days of Christmas

This is a video that me and my friends had been working on since thanksgiving. I did a lot of the keying and masking of the shots (learning a program called aftereffects.) Keying is taking the background out of a shot. This was shot on a green screen, so it was a matter of taking the green out and then messing with the saturation until the figure is completely isolated. Masking is when you have to cut the figure out frame by frame to omit something from the background you can't key out (incredibly tedious.) I spent 6 hours masking out the section above RayRay's arm in one scene while Glynnis and her friends were over trying to make the deadline of Christmas.
