So, I've done the composite masking step. Takes a couple of hours to render the composite, but I think I'm done with it.

I've already shown an example of an ink mask. But for this one, I also wanted to deal with a reflection, which I felt was a little confusing.

The "aquarium room" has glass at two angles. I think the idea was that this allows press to take photos from different angles during the suit-donning and testing phase (you've probably seen some of these photos in news coverage of Soyuz flights to ISS).

This means that if you take a shot straight from the side, you see the astronauts, but also a reflection of the press gallery. So I wound up with this angle, which basically looks fine, but one of the (non-moving) audience members seems to be staring straight at us in the audience! It's a little distracting.

So I figured I'd soften the reflection with a mask on the "reflection" layer of the EXR.

AFTER Composite with a blurred mask applied to the reflection layer. We can still see that people in the audience are reflected in the glass, but without the prominent staring woman. On the right, we see the unchanged shot of Sergei, Hiromi, and Georgiana at the desk. Hiromi is speaking, while looking towards Georgiana.
BEFORE Composite with default settings and no masking. We see Sergei, Hiromi, and Georgiana on the right. Hiromi is still speaking. On the left, there is a white-haired woman reflected from the press gallery. This wasn't really planned! Since she's not animated, she just sort of stares.
Node system for the compositing. On left, we have the PAINT and INK EXR streams. The pink nodes are the masks. The one in the upper left is a paint-over that fixes a remaining problem with the reporter's eyelid (my fix for that didn't quite get it all). The second one is the mask for the reflection layer.
