Summer to Winter scene in After Effects

Use color correction and keying to create a snow scene.
In this tutorial, I'm teaching my wife all about @AdobeVideo After Effects. Mrs Cactus has just started using AE and wants to learn.
In this episode, we take a drone shot from summer of a lush, green valley and using Keylight, Hue / Saturation and the Curves effect we create a wintery scene. After the initial effect, we look at a couple of different ways to keep the red train nice and bright. We use Track Mattes (mainly to show a different way to use Keylight) and Mask Tracking to isolate it.

This is a great solution for creating a snow cover effect, but i'd lose the CC Snowfall unless you can figure out how to have it track to the drone camera movement so it doesn't look so static and fake.

Thank you. And I take your point. You could certainly use CC Particle World for 3D snow, but I find it is amazing what you can get away with. (And what broadcast TV gets away with)
