Premiere- placingan image of a head on a video body

post #1 of 7
Thread Starter 
The cheesier and cornier the better. I have a headshot of a person I want to put on someones body in a movie. the head doesnt need to move as far as facial expressions go, but it needs to travel across the screen wherever the body goes.

The project:

I have a wimpy history teacher that I and my friend Jennifer always make fun of. He found pictures of Jennifer when she was in elementary school. They were horrible, perms, glasses and a lazy eye She wants retaliation, and I have less than a week left(until thursday) to do this. We want to take a move of the man i feel like a woman music video and put the teachers head on the singers body. I can't figure it out or find a tutorial on google for the life of me. Please help guys, its rather important for me to pull through on this one if you catch my drift

Could you not use Macromedia Flash? You can download a free trial from the website, and I think using that it would be fairly easy to overlay the face on top of a video file. I cant go into detail on how to do it exactly as it would take far too long to explain, but it shouldnt be too hard to do, even if you have never used the software before.

I was hoping to avoid flash, considering I hate using the software

Edit: resorting to flash, good lord I hate it...

Edit again- I'm getting flash to work, it functions alot better on the lappy, thought the software was crap, but my desktop just sucks

yeah its coming okay, my flash skills are coming back to me. I think the reason I hated it before was because my desktop lagged horribly with it, and crashed alot. The laptop is quite a few times more powerful and has yet to crash flash mx

So you have a still picture of the teacher that you want to mount on a live video clip? If so, it wil be tricky if you only have a frontal shot of the guy. Id suggest cutting out mouth and eyes, and simply slapping it onto your video. Itll look cheesy, but hey, it works for Southpark.

I finished it a few days ago. I used flash mx and lots of motion tweens. It came out rather good. I can send the swf file to anyone if they'd like to see it. I should be putting it online very soon
