changing perspective on composited video

jond76

Hi all
So I'm running into a strange hurdle that seems like there should be an easy solution to...
I have a composite shot of my actor with a TV in the background. I need to get some video on that TV. Problem is that the TV is at a bit of an angle so I need to change up the perspective of my video to fit into the TV's frame (kern?).  My video editor can do this, but it would be easier to do in hitfilm due to my actor being partly in front of the TV.

If you use a tripod you can only load your video footage change it to 3D and rotate it around so you can adjust to the top of the TV screen.
You can mask the TV screen also and add the video layer behind the masked one also.

Rotating pre done footage? I want a tutorial for that one.... I'm assuming you meant something else?

Any media inside a composit shot can be scaled and rotated in 3 axis when you change it to 3D Plane

D'oh, that's what I meant to say. Now, is it Vegas, Photoshop, or both that calls it Perspective Warp?
As noted, you can also make the insert a 3D layer and rotate/scale into position, but Quad Warp is easier.

 THANKS everyone! Had to do a workaround, but now I'll know for the future!
