Guys,
There might be some grain of hope. I checked out the trailer for the deleted shots and this will sound crazy but as long as there are previous frames of the background info where the time code is not covering it could be removed with Mocha Pro’s remove Module. I do not use the remove tool too much so I will have to take a refresher coarse on it, but it is very doable…

This video demonstrates how powerful this software is. So I believe it is possible to do this.
