There’s something about seeing a regular video visualised in three dimensions, stretched across space and time, to make sure you never forget that we are only ever a few clicks away from absolute genius.
From the site:
The work presents an interactive system for quickly creating alpha mattes for objects in a video. Unlike previous techniques commonly employed in the visual-fx industry (e.g., rotoscoping) our system can help novice users create professional quality mattes with very little manual effort.
These alpha mattes can then be used to cut out objects from one video and composite them into another video. Alpha mattes can also be used to apply image filters selectively to objects in a video.
Even if you’re not into video, you’ve got to check this out.
