I decided to enlighten myself with Shake 4. This is the result. I took previously shot footage of myself swinging a guitar, did a garbage mask in AEFX, imported that into Shake and finished up masking out the action with key lighting and some rotoscoping with the hide/reveal functions.
I dropped in cloud footage from www.archive.org, which proved to be an interesting obstacle since every other frame it would move up and down on the y-axis. I ended up tracking only the y-axis to minimize the trembling effect, but some of it remained. So, I threw in a couple layers of movement as well as tracked the entire project to have a "camera shake." Thanks, technology!
I'd like to get my mind wrapped around some Nuke experience now.
This is a random doodle I started in Photoshop. She has a bit of Beverly Crusher (yes... as in Star Trek: TNG) to her face, don't you think? There are two because I'm currently deciding on how my monitor is deceiving me in contrast.
