post production question

I neglected to minimize my windows tray during filming some footage so my footage shows my tray along with the programs I was running...grrrrr. It would be difficult to go back and shoot that footage over because it was a live event.


Any suggestions on how I can hide the part of the footage? of course its at the very bottom...maybe cropping or overlay that area with something.

thanks

Depending on the post editing program you're using, such as Premiere, you can crop the size of the video segment to just what you want displayed.

The very fucntion you require comes under the heading 'Pan, Crop and Zoom' found in most editing programmes you pay for. Alternatively, you can play with the resolution size and pixel shape (assuming your editing programme has that facility) which will crop the bottom, downside, it equally crops the top.
