  1. For compositing, I was thinking of using After Effects for the masking, while my main editing would be done in Final Cut. Also, I should have probably mentioned that I will be shooting on location, so I won't be able to mess with the door at all. Since it is a glass door though, will I need to change Layer #2's opacity so that we are able to see the ghost before he has walked through (in the beginning of the shot)? Thanks a lot for your help.
  2. I am thinking of doing a sequence in which the subject appears to walk through a glass door without stopping. In addition, I would want to lower the opacity of the subject's layer to apply a "ghost effect." For the most part, I've decided on using a static angle, as a moving camera would make the editing much more difficult. Right now, this is what I've come up with in terms of a shot list: 1) Empty frame, without a subject (door closed) 2) Subject walking through (door open) I was thinking of masking out the closed door in shot 1 and placing it in the second shot, but I don't think that will accomplish what I want. I'm not sure how to make the transition from one side of the glass door to the other in order to make it look convincing. Any suggestions on how to achieve this effect would be greatly appreciated.
