SANM560 Weeks 9 & 10

Unfortunately I wasn't able to work on all that much during weeks 9 and 10 due to other commitments. I was mainly working on compositing the animated door back over the shots.

Door Comp

I was able to do 2 tests of this comp using the same shot. The animation of the door is just a placeholder while I animate tbe proper movement.

The main process was to match the camera angle in unreal engine, and then render out a static shot capturing much more of the scene than needed. Then I motion tracked the background (In the case of this shot, a 2d track was sufficient, though other shots would need 3d tracking) and added that motion to the clean plate. I then color corrected it to match the rest of the shot, rotoscoped Brandon and the pillar, and added them back in on top of the clean plate.

Initial test

Made focus pull slower and less perfect, fixed some of the rotoscoping issues.

Next Steps

As of right now, my next steps are to finish the door animation and composite it into all of the shots with the door in the background. Im anticipating that the most challenging part will be matching the more complicated camera movements.
