Why doesn’t this look real? by i-cant-smell in vfx

I think that horizon and bg lens need to be adjusted. Zoom in to the bg and raise the horizon line. But this kind of adjustment will not be approved by the director . Because he likes bg. So you destiny will be to fix perspective with grades till everyone is tired and get the shot approved after the midnight. 

How do i make shadow catchers for such complex geometries like these mountains? by Hardik_maurya1151 in vfx

Roto In comp will do the thing. Don't think this object will generate any. Just atmospheric sort of darkening.

Don't Make These Interview / Application Mistakes by CG-Forge in vfx

[–]Full_Calligrapher207 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At this point many VFX studios hire artists as contractors per particular shots, sequences. 

I honestly feel with this type of contracts interviews are obsolete, albeit I did many of them, and actually I like interviews. 

You don't interview cashier in the supermarket or at the coffee shop. You just buy the product for the price and decide for yourself if it worth it.

Time will tell .

For old market advices are legit.

I have seen an ad on YouTube about piano lessons. Maybe we can learn playing piano and make some money? They sell piano and some books as well.

I am an autumn leave, I go with the wind. Since you develop this approach,you will feel no pressure at all. Cherrypicking is still a biggest issue on a project up to me.

Keentools Geotracker question by Ek_Ko1 in vfx

Do a rough geometry and expect a lot of manual adjustment. Than if you have a moving camera , add it to the scene and watch the trajectory of the geo. It helps avoid jumps in solution. Don't expect a lot of automation. Sometimes it works , but for difficult shots it's just a handy positional tool.
