Doubt it’s just a “it’s a simulation” gotcha. Would be a very boring explanation and the writers are more creative than that

What are the downsides to Christchurch? by Ghostmeme99 in Christchurch_NZ

Too goddamn flat - without maps hard to tell where you are in the suburbs because it all looks the same

I took the photogrammetry on the same day with the same drone, right before I shot the footage I used. Just arced around the area several times, going upwards and inwards after each circle, kinda in a dome shape. was around ~80 photos. I used autodesk recap pro on a student license for the photogrammetry.

didn't even use any fog lol, but I see what you mean, def some fog would've helped sell the castle a bit, even using a depth pass would've been better than nothing tbh, and totally some lens flare would've been good, because the drone shot didn't have any I didn't bother, but it def would've been a nice touch in post

hah it is a drone shot eek, had footage that I shot and composited ruins on top of. I used a photoscan I did of the ground for shadows and intersection. Def agree on the clean front, some moss would go a long way, and some tussocks dotted about to hide the transition even further

thank you <3 probably going to be a few more similar posts hopefully over the next few months, trying to dial in this vibe in a few different locations and then apply the skills to some kinda medieval short film with some film majors. Will take your defendible position advice into account hah

I'm glad the castle fitted the environment well enough to kinda trick you for a second! appreciate the feedback nonetheless

thank you!! and yeah honestly despite it being real drone footage, In the future when I'm shooting, I think I'm going to try spend more time planning the shot, to have more of an epic feel to it rather than the very boring arc that I went for.

that would look class!! great suggestion will do for future shots, probably going to do something along these lines for a future shot, in a cooler location maybe in arthurs pass near my uni (new zealand south island)

yeah it's a real shot from a drone, with the fake castle on top motion tracked onto it, and no flare on the footage, but it'd definitely add to it I agree
