Part of the premise of the movie "Running Man" is how the main character gets framed as a murdering police officer by manipulating video evidence.
Now, Photoshopping images and AfterEffects-ing video is already possible but it's still a huge pain to do things convincingly. High priced gear and pros territory.
Poisson image editing is some complex mathematics that will make this kind of stuff easier. For better or worse... ;)
