The Image Editor
Erase Objects from the Frames
Sometimes it is necessary to attach objects to the figure like a string or other prop, such as when your character is about to fly or jump. If you want to shoot such a scene, then it is important that you first make a ‘clean’ picture of the set, so only the background without figures or the supporting elements. Afterward use the eraser or masking tool to remove the string or other supporting elements.
- Capture an image of the background of your scene before you place any figure. This frame will be your clean frame.
- Capture an image with the figure hanging on a string or place it on top of a block.
- Right click the frame to open the frame edit menu.
- Select Erase.
- Click the square symbol to select a clean frame, a frame without the string. If you don’t select a clean frame the previous image will be used as a clean frame.
- Draw over the unwanted parts, the string or block, to remove it from the image.
