Compositing and tracking: move an object in the video without changing the environment + insert a document
It is necessary to perform complex post-processing: take the original video, carefully isolate a specific object, and move it within the frame while preserving the background, light, shadows, and natural reflections. Additionally, the ability to replace or insert other objects is required, including realistically embedding a flat object like a document onto a specified plane in the scene. The camera can be static or moving. The environment of the video should not change.
What exactly to do
1.1 Accurately mask and track the object, perform its displacement in the scene without artifacts.
1.2 Fill the original location of the object with a clean background with correct perspective and parallax.
1.3 Insert alternative inserts, including a document on a table or wall, with correct geometry, highlights, grain, and light shadows.
1.4 Preserve color correction, noise, compression, and dynamics of the original material so that edits are not noticeable.
1.5 Provide several positioning options and one final master.Input data
2.1 Original in ProRes 422 HQ or another lossless format, we will also provide h264 for preview.
2.2 Timecode and reference for where the object should be placed.
2.3 If necessary, we will provide additional photos of the site for reference of light and textures.Requirements for the result
3.1 Absence of noticeable seams, halos, tracking drift, and grain jumps.
3.2 Matching light, exposure, color temperature, noise level, and sharpness.
3.3 Correct shadows and reflections on surrounding surfaces.
3.4 Synchronization with the original sound, original duration unchanged.
3.5 Final files: master in ProRes 422 HQ, preview h264, plus project files and caches.
3.6 Possibility of edits for two iterations.Technologies to choose from
4.1 Nuke, After Effects + Mocha Pro, Blender with Camera Tracking, or Fusion.
4.2 For noise and grain matching, Neat Video or custom grain match is welcomed.
4.3 ML tools for inpainting are acceptable if the result is clean and reproducible.Timeline and stages
5.1 Rough result on a short segment of 5–10 seconds for approach approval.
5.2 Draft of the entire scene.
5.3 Final with color and audio.
We expect proposals on timelines from the performer after reviewing the originals.Success criteria
6.1 Intervention is not detectable at normal viewing speed.
6.2 The track does not drift in dynamic moments and maintains parallax.
6.3 The background at the former object's location is clean, without repeating patterns and blurs.What to send in response
7.1 Portfolio on compositing: object removal, clean plates, planar/3D tracking, matchmove.
7.2 Brief description of the pipeline.
7.3 Preliminary estimate and timeline window.
7.4 Willingness to sign an NDA.
Additionally:
If desired, we will first provide a test clip of 5–10 seconds with payment.

Hello, Milena! Your project requires special attention to detail, clear knowledge in compositing and tracking. I specialize in post-production, have 6 years of experience with After Effects and Mocha Pro, which will be perfect for completing your tasks. I assure you that I will be able to perfectly mask and move the object, ensuring the invisibility of edits and compliance with lighting. I suggest creating a draft for agreeing on the approach. I strive to achieve successful results together with you! I look forward to a dialogue regarding the specifics of your project.
