Hi!
I have to recreate the Bob Ross Joy of Painting intro in my school project, and I have no idea how to tackle this problem.
How could I recreate the chroma key masking effect in the intro? I mean how the painting gets revealed under the titanium hwite canvas.
I get that it's been shot as a green screen and chroma keying has been applied to it. But after that it's a mystery.
If someone wiser could let me in on these secrets, I would greatly appreciate it.
Much easier/sompler solution is using the paint tool & then apply it as animated track matte

Mask directly onto the video that is to appear sequentially, from each brush stroke. Use a separate mask for each stroke. During the shooting, place guides for the talent to stroke over - this is to ensure all parts within the 'appearance area' is covered.

I'm doubtful you'll be able to animate the size of the brush as it's animated. IOW, you'll end up with a stroke which is fixed in width - this may not look sufficiently organic for this effect. Agreed that the Paint tool is more efficient but it's not going to look as effective as a mask.
