Digital Double

Testing Testing

Now I ‘ve gone through the whole production process.

I’ve filmed my self jumping infront of the camera and from a chair far away from camera.
Then I animated my digital character so the beginning and the end matches my movment at the film.
I rendered the animation in 6 diffrent layers:
Beauty Pass
Pants Mask
Shirt Mask
Skin Mask
Shoes Mask
RGB Pass
By this way I can control almost all lighting in post.
In post I color correct my digital material to match the filmed material.
I also removed the chair I jumped from.

This is how it looks befor any post production:

Her’s the final test result:

What did I learn with this test:
I discoverd that It’s hard to make it look good as cloeser I get to the camera (quite obvious).
But 65 feets from camera could be great.
I must either make a more correct lighting in maya or produce more passes for post to get greater controll.

I think I will make another test later on with these new experience
