In this video, I go over what you should look for in making a good composite with a simple A over B project. The goal is that the new or CG item(s) look like they were just filmed practically. Obviously, they need to be tracked, sized, and placed correctly, but you also need to consider grain, amount of blur, cast shadows, reflections, and other items. Watch to see how you would use After Effects to achieve this goal.
