does anyone know how to duplicate a person?

does anybody know how to make a person look as if interacting with his or herself? like make one person be in two different places at the same time? so that one person would be doing two parts at the same time?


thank you

Easiest way is to just limit yourself to stationary shots. Then you can mount the camera and film every shot twice. Just make sure that everything in the background stays the same. Then you can just composite both shots on top of each other. As long as you and yourself don't ever overlapp in the same space, the effect will work.

To do anything more complex will probably require motion controlled cameras at the very least, and to do interaction shots you'd need a body double and then you'd reshoot the shot as best as you could to duplicate those same positions. Then you'd need to composite your image on top of the body double.

thanx for tha reply but would i be able to do that on avisynth?
or is mpeg2 better??

and does anybody know how to do duplicate people by split screening

[xxyounaxx]

oh i got mai answer, but i still need help on split screening

[adam]

You could do it in avisynth. Crop 50% from each clip... On one crop the right half and on the other crop the left half. Then use the stack command to display them side by side.
