We are going to cover a simple paintout that paves the way for more vfx to be added and is always the first step to a larger shot. It's not as exciting as making a spaceship fly by, but there's is just as much value in the skill. 

As a final project, we are going to paint out the cracks on a block of concrete, given to us by our "fictional director".

First we will start by importing our footage, creating a composition, and creating a solid track of our concrete surface in Boris Mocha, which comes with Adobe After Effects CC.

Second, we will create a "clean plate" of our concrete by using the cloner brush, to remove the cracks, staying inside of Adobe After Effects.
