Calling all Madonna fans...

For anyone familiar with Madonna's video "This used to be my playground" where the whole clip is told in like a story/picture-book effect where instead of images you see videos, does anyone have any idea who to achieve this effect?
I was thinking maybe to shoot a picture book but instead of pictures to put a blue/green photo and take it out using the chroma key....What do you think?

Thanks in Advance!
Tom

Sounds like a good idea. The video might look funny if you turn a page.

Yes you could try that. However, the video won't follow as the page turns. The green/blue just acts like windows that the video can be seen through. To make the video clips move with the page you need some sort of tracking which can be found in Boris RED, AE or Digital Fusion. Or maybe there's some freeware out there. Do a search.

OR, you could use Satish Wax or 3DLE and keyframe by stepping ahead one frame at a time and adjust the videos position.
