Today Is Going To Be A Tedious Day...

If you know anything about video editing, you'll know what a mask is. If you don't, a mask is basically creating a specific shape to crop. Now, usually, it'd be easy, just draw a rectangle or some other polygon, but today I'm masking my car. And since my car isn't a simple shape, I have to create a point on every edge (and my car has a lot of them)...
But to make matters trickier, I have to do this 834 different times because my car will be moving. So I have to change the mask, adjust the points, and go to the next frame. Rinse and repeat.
It'll look fantastic, but it takes an eternity. You're more than welcome to comment here to give me something to look forward to after this, but wish me luck.

@taylor-martin All new respect gained for Ray Harryhausen.

@taylor-martin Sounds complicated and tedious indeed! What's this for and do we get to see the end result?!

Yea, ditto exactly what Sparky said! This thing yer doing needs an audience of us.

@barnie @ZHP-Sparky-the-5th Oppo literally is the audience. Hopefully it'll premier on Christmas.
