Another animation test. This is 2 different videos using the same difference matte. First video has the player going into invisible mode and then standing idle. Second video is just idle and guarding.

I thought this stage would work very well for the difference matte technique as it looks very static. But I guess there's some very subtle camera movements now and then. And some animations will move the camera no matter what (like turning invisible or even guarding).

If anyone know of any better "difference matte" plugin for After Effects which is able to clean up an image or otherwise improve the result that would be neat.

First part of the video shows video the difference matte effect on. Second part shows the alpha of the difference matte. The final part of the video shows the source video with no changes at all. (And whoops, I mixed the the 3 videos incorrectly as there's no key frames at the start of each one)
