Hello, i making a football video and i've got that piece of footage that last 43 frames :

footage it self : https://youtu.be/4NMIWvlgL7E

and during these 43 frames i want to get rid of all the player exept the guy in the red circle that has the ball ( make them disappear )

I've tried to duplicate that layer freeze frame it and cute pieces out of it with the mask tool to put them on top of the clip, but it doesn't work ( i did track the footage and apply it to the pieces ). the probleme is that the camera that took this video moves in a weird way.

So if any one has an idea of how i could do that it would be very nice of you

PS : if you got time to waste could you do it for me please ? if you can, please send me an email here [Personal info removed by moderator] and i'll send you the clip.

thanks a lot for your time and your answers and please excuse my bad english ( i'm french that's why )

Correct answer Rick Gerard

That looks like game capture footage. I'd motion stabilize the shot to remove all camera motion, add new layers where you clone out the other players or copy a frame where the players are not in the shot, then put the camera motion back in the shot and add it to the overlays by adding a null to the composition, tying the null's position property to the animated Anchor Point that Motion stabilizing creates with a simple expression by simply dragging the pickwhip to the Anchor Point of the original footage, then move the CTI to the first keyframe for the anchor point and parent the footage and the overlays that remove the other players to the null.

EZ, but frankly, $10/frame is a real deal. This stuff can be tedious. There is no one click one effect solution to the problem.

You already gave us the clip     I'll do it for you for $10 per frame.
