    -what skillset would i be after? It sounds to me like you are describing having her be on a front layer. So at least in part, you are describing green screen work but it wasn't shot on greenscreen to begin with (I'm guessing). So yeah.

    With the interview, you can transition into the next scene and put some graphics on the side of her, but not necessarily right behind her (I think this requires green screen), and the way I would do that is manually in after effects using what I call "lower thirds" (may not be the correct term)

    You build the lower thirds in after effects and put keyframes to say where they start and stop.

    -would one person be able to do all of this? Yes.

    But that person isn't me. You may want to disregard all of this, and take evilpeacock's advice instead because I don't really do greenscreen work or work with video layers much. I've only done rotoscroping once in college, I still have no idea what it actually is.
