Digital Matte Painting DST60904/Final project LIU CHENG RUI  (0370930) DST60904/Digital Matte Painting / Bachelor of Design (Hons) in Creative Media / Taylor's University   INSTRUCTION FINAL PROJECT-THEMATIC MATTE PAINTING (VFX) In the final project, we need to import the previously done project into After Effects and create a dynamic video. Before importing it into After Effects, I first improved the previously produced project because Mr. Kannan thought there were problems with the perspective of some buildings. First, I adjusted the perspective of the buildings to make them look more consistent. Then, I adjusted the tones of the shadow parts of some buildings as well as the colors of the buildings above and below the picture, so that the visual center would be more concentrated in the middle. Fig3.1 The modified INVISIBLE SET EXTENSION Before importing AE, I first conceived...

When making the selection, the consistency of perspective, the uniformity of light source direction and the distinction of picture layers were given priority consideration. Then, through sketches, I initially divided the foreground (architectural framework), middle ground (main urban agglomeration), and background (distant building complexes and circular structures) in the picture to establish a sense of depth and composition rhythm. Fig2.1  Create layers for different objects After all the materials were imported in...

In addition, the world view of "Star Wars" integrates various real-world architectural styles. For example, the planet Corusanne showcases dense super high-rise urban buildings. This style mixture provides rich visual resources. Fig1.1 Star Wars Fig1.2 A still from Star Wars ...

Digital Matte Painting DST60904/Exercise LIU CHENG RUI  (0370930) DST60904/Digital Matte Painting / Bachelor of Design (Hons) in Creative Media / Taylor's University INSTRUCTION EXERCISE 1.Sky Replacement Exercise First of all, I'll find a landscape photo. According to Mr. Kannan's request, I found a picture without too many complex environments and then edited it. Fig1.1  Landscape Photograph Subsequently, I opened Photoshop and imported the image into it, and began to use the sky replacement technique taught by Mr. Kannan in class. First, click Edit > Sky Replacement to replace the sky. After the replacement is completed, we need to add the environmental atmosphere according to the time period in which the image is located (such as morning, afternoon, evening or night). For this purpose, we need to introduce shadows, ...
