Technical Challenges
One of the biggest challenges i had with the project was blending the falling down scene. In the original scene his hands were out of the frame, so I went to a later scene and i masked out his hands, then I had to go frame by frame and make sure his hands were not disconnecting from the original footage . It was also really difficult to make the scenes blend together. Overall i think it turned out great, but i definetly have alot to improve on.
