Finally the GCI in Gaia's Army is complete. I only had toe join the pieces of the puzzle now; the CGI amd the mac-track shots are already spliced, and as I type the closing sequence within the opening sequence is rendering out of Adobe After Effects. Below are screenshots from splicing together the number tunnel which connects to the grid, and the mactrack shot in which the screen of the Macbook explodes into pixels, revealing the CGI underneath.
Above and below; tracking the Mac laptop. The greenscreen and blue crosses were an image on the screen made in photoshop. In the edit I realised it would be far easier to track the layer and attach the screenshot of iTunes over it, rather than under, to save me greenscreening.

Above - Louis' body passes infront of the blue crosses, making it impossible to track - so I moved the track points to the zoom H4n (Sound recording device which reeaally should not have been in shot...oops) and to a piece of paper and the shadow it makes, because the trackpoints fix onto what they track by measuring the contrast in the area selected to track - so the white agaisnt black in the triangular shape makes a perfect tracking spot.
Below, the screenshot taken on Louis' Macbook which we placed over the greenscreen Mac, and then exploded.
