After a long hiatus away from doing VFX in Avid, I seem to be back to square one in wrapping my head around the workflows. Let's say you have 2 shots, one on top is of a ball. Then you have a shot of a field underneath. Let's say you want to draw a matte around the ball, scale it down and then animate it around the field. How do you do this simple thing in Avid? It's driving me crazy. Sure, you can isolate the ball with the animatte, but then if you put a resize or 3D warp on top of that, all the transformations affect all the tracks underneath. I thought I had this sort of under control a while back, but I'm lost again.
