Notes:
Learning how to you matte painting effectively and
efficiently can elevate your work to the next level. In this
course, Matte Painting Basics and the Static Camera Shot, you will
begin by gaining a solid understanding of foundational
techniques by learning about resolution, static grain,
distorted plates, bit depth, and software settings. Next,
you'll learn how matte paintings should be organized, what
painting techniques will break your shot, and even small
details like how to name your files and layers. Once you
understand how to properly setup and build your file, you will
learn how to match your plates perspective, and alter the
perspective of some architecture to fit into your shot. During the
blocking phase you'll also learn how to build your own
personal reference library, and then how to extract and clean up
your painting after you've finished blocking. You will then
take your painting from photoshop to nuke to composite and add
life and movement to your static shot. Finally, you'll learn a
bit about how matte painting fits into a vfx pipeline, how to hand
off your shots to another artist or department, and the process of
revision in the visual effects world. By the end of this
course, you'll have a beautiful shot and be more
confident in setting up your own static matte paintings.
Software required: Photoshop-CC-2015.5, NukeX-10.5v2.
