Killing shadows on a shirt

[Anonymous]

Whats the best way in combustion to remove shadows on the back of a t-shirt. The shadow is casting from a the head of a person onto the back of his t-shirt.

Not sure what paint operator to use on this… tried clone and blur w/no luck!!

thanks!!!

Without seeing the shot, some of this might not work, but…
Create a clean frame of T Shirt and track this over the existing one. This will either then look absolutely fine, or will give you a pass to garbage or paint through to.
Failing that you might try to selectively regrade the shadow area, either by grading just the shadow areas, or creating a matte of the shadow area and grading through that.
Hope that works for you.

I think for this sequence the selectivelly regrading the shadow area would be best. My poblem though is what paint tool would I use for this? The shirt is takes up a good portion of the screen so the detail of the moving wrinkles of the shirt are very visable… all I have to do it’s remove them shadows….

Thanks!!!
