    Without a key (blue or green screen) you have to go frame by frame. Its called rotoscoping and its a pain. But worth it.

    AE has a few other ways like keying based on lumanance, but is never really clean and you usually still have to go frame by frame and clean it up.

    Creativecow.com has tutorials on rorscoping in AE.

    If you look on my site in my portfolio there is a piece called "hall" I used a difference key on that. Basically I took an image of an empty hall and the difference key takes out everything that is different fromm the still.

    If you want to know more Ill explain how its done. BUt even with that difference key, it took me half a day to clean up the running guy.
