Atmosphere references Background replacementĪfter I chose the favorite atmosphere look I start with background replacement. What I wanted to change was overall different color palette and atmospheric haze as cool element to even more define the depth of the shot. I really like the sunset look of the original plate, so I tried to keep it. I started with finding references for overall atmosphere look. Up to me was put it all together with logical order, create my own atmosphere and add something special which will change the school pattern look. From school materials I had all rendered CG layers like buildings extensions and ships. At first sight it looks like the best shot for futuristic future look. When I’ve seen first time this shot with overall view of the Vancouver city shooted by drone I was very excited how nice and impressive the shot looks. I will explain the approach and techniques which I used for every each shot. Whole showreel consists with materials from the school. This is the reason why it is important to put there something different to change the pattern look. This allowed me to use these experiences to make the reel more stand out from the crowd.Īs I noticed many junior compositors use to have pretty same reels, because for example they graduated on the same vfx school. As I mentioned earlier I used to be a 3D generalist. Time to time I used Photoshop and 3ds max to help me with some challenges. It gave me a lots of experiences and confidence to handle the new compositing role in the studio.Īs I tried to be a compositor I focused whole effort on post production in Nuke. I spent on the reel almost a year which was the hardest year in my life. Thanks this I’ve got my first job in vfx industry at Pixomondo. This was the first compositing reel after I graduated vfx online school Compozitive.
