• Roto Brush for fast isolation of moving foreground elements. Quickly and automatically
separate a foreground object, such as an actor, from its current background so that it can be
placed in a completely different environment. Simply brush paint strokes inside the foreground
object and let After Effects determine where the subject starts and ends in each frame.
