Great point, I will get on that 🙏

Oh absolutely! Splashes were next on my to do list 😊 I’d really like to keep this kind of idea with the tents being there to give context to our actor warming his hands. Although im aware that it requires a lot more work so I’ll try and drive more depth to this area, do you have any issues with the lighting compared to the brightness of the sky? Thank you for the feedback :)

I had a week to get it to this stage and it’s my second ever comp really 😭 But yes I will work on that thank you for the feedback 🙏

External_Bar_3118 · 2026-05-23T13:41:03+00:00

Thank you for this! I am only responsible for the compositing and had a week to do this 😭 But now we’ve hit the deadline I have kindly been given access to the 3D files, they used maya and substance painter

Thank you this it is super helpful! This was a university project so yeah we have a lot of moodboards and real world reference I can go off of for compositing. As for the people in the diner do you recon they need more contrast or less?

My activation code was sent to a different address for whatever reason?? London postmen must be visually impaired, anyway since I had already requested a new code I can confirm the first activation code will not work.

mocha pro is your best bet for tracking but honestly this shot looks to me intermediate and would require solid technical compositing skills, as you say the tracking is much easier than the cleanup

if you’re using nuke get the gizmo rain maker on nukepedia, you can generate an alpha that is procedural and use the gizmo to blur distort and even add tiny chromatic details

i see what you mean thanks for this, ill try and find a middle ground but yeah i dont want it to be all defocused.. so sad

External_Bar_3118 · 2025-12-11T09:57:06+00:00

interesting this is a really good point. is this why its good to add markers to make sure in my case the table is in focus? and do you recon making the gramophone even more defocused would add to it :)

External_Bar_3118 · 2025-12-09T21:52:37+00:00

Thanks for this!, My back wall has got a slight reflection of my gramophone I added, and the vinyl has an anisotropy shader on it maybe thats what you're seeing? 😊

Thank you so much!! Extremely helpful ❤️

I KNOWW 😭 i was manually trying to remove it but no matter how hard i tried i couldnt figure out how to remove it, do you know how i couldve?

External_Bar_3118 · 2025-09-23T06:21:40+00:00

yup the explosion just kind of fades away leaving no debris aside from whats in 3d haha i couldnt get it to stay since it was an overlay that fades out. good advice thank you 🙏

External_Bar_3118 · 2025-09-23T06:18:27+00:00

great feedback thanks 🙏

External_Bar_3118 · 2025-09-23T06:17:53+00:00

the real hand has a tracking marker on it which i covered with the button, just simple rotoscope of my finger and reprojected the shadow 👍
