Re: Tracking/Masking...

[Benjamin Eshagpoor] "Does anyone have any thoughts as to a work around?? I really really really don't want to have to roto these masks into place. "

The bad news: you won't be able to escape roto work... at least on portions of the people. If you don't care about those seats on the field, you've dodged a bullet.

The good news: if all the advertisements are enclosed in rectangles, why not create solids, put proper-sized masks on them around the anchor points, and use them as track mattes? You've already got motion tracks, and then all you'd have to do is animate the solids' mask shapes a bit.
