I need a shot of a highway with no cars. Would it be best to simply
import (the avi file) as a filmstrip into Photoshop and manually erase
the cars from the highway one-by-one to get this shot or is there an
easier way?

If it is a locked off cmaera you can do just that. But you must have anough
of the highway to clone asphalt bakc where you removed cars.

Plus enough of the appropriate background and white line, potholes, etc. Tough
project.

I have considered a still but it just looks like a still, right in the
middle of moving shots.

Ask yourself why it looks like a still.

- Add camera shake?

- Add moving sky?

- Add grain noise ?
