I think it would be way more work than it would be worth, especially since the area your shadow is on is probably very details and not consistant. I have found that i try to avoid shooting my shadow as much as possibly but sometimes with skiing shots you have to just live with it.

do you have photoshop cs5? If your shadow isn't huge you can trace it with a pen, create a selection and use content aware. Not the best solution but it could work in some circumstances:

That would work if he wanted to do that to every frame of his video...
