Difference Compositing Question - Please help me and my daughter

Hey guys, I am trying to do something that is probably very simple but I can not figure it out.
I have 3 clips:
1. 1 minute clip of empty room.
2. 1 minute clip of my daughter running in and hiding.
3. 1 minute clip of my daughter running in and looking for herself.
The goal obviously is to layer the clips so that she appears twice in the same video at the same time. I have tried switching the level that the clips are in and switching which ones I turn the "Composite Mode" "Difference" on but I always end up with a really funky psychedelic result.
What level do I put which clips in?
Do I use clip 1 at all or do I just layer the other two?
Which one(s) do I turn on the "Composite Mode" "Difference" on?
What else I am missing?
I know it is a lot to ask for, but could someone please give me a step by step list of exactly what to do?
Any help is GREATLY appreciated!!!!
Thanks in advance,
Dan

You might want to try a different approach to achieve this effect.
NOTE: was the camera locked-off on a tripod for every shot? Each clip has to be filmed from exactly the same position for this to work.
Firstly... you should be using the Difference Matte (effects>video filters>Key>difference matte) to do what you want to do.
Secondly, it's very difficult to get a good result using the difference matte in DV, there just isn't enough data in the image to get clean crisp results, and you can spend ages trying to get it looking remotely satisfactory... very frustrating... (That's a major assumption... that you are using DV...?)
Have you tried using a 4-point (or 8-point) garbage matte? Does the image of your daughter 'looking', ever cross over the back-ground of your daughter 'hiding'?

  • HT201363 Hello, I have my pass word, I have my Apple ID, but itunes think I am buying a song for the first time and is asking me 2 security questions, please help, what should i do?

    I cannot remember the answeres to my security questions, please help.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

    You should contact Apple by phone as soon as possible. You'll need to change your Apple ID and all passwords.

    How to reset your Apple ID security questions.
    Go to appleid.apple.com, click on the blue button that says 'Manage Your Apple ID'.
    Log in with your Apple ID and password. (If you have forgotten your Apple ID password, go to iforgot.apple.com first to reset your password with a password recovery email)
    Go to the Password & Security section on the left side, and click on the link underneath the security questions that says 'Forgot your answers? Send reset security info email to [email]'.
    This will generate an automated e-mail that will allow you to reset your security questions.
    If that doesn't work, or  there is no rescue email link available, then click on 'Temporary Support PIN' that is in the bottom left side, and generate a 4-digit PIN for the Apple Account Security Advisor you will be contacting later.
    Next, go to https://getsupport.apple.com
    (If you see a message that says 'There are no products registered to this Apple ID, simply click on 'See all products and services')
    Choose 'More Products & Services', then 'Apple ID'.
    A new page will open.
    Choose 'Other Apple ID Topics', then 'Forgotten Apple ID Security Questions'.
    Click the blue 'Continue' button.
    Select the contact option that suits your needs best.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

    If your account is disabled you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    You might then need to log out of your account on your iPhone and iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Storeand then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it.
    For your security questions, if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account then the steps half-way down this page will give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address then you will need to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 (you can also try this link if you can't get your account enabled via the above)
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

    We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support.
    If you don't have access to your rescue email account, or you don't have one on your iTunes account, then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
