Green Screen Shoots - Development

Not much more to say about this one apart from I've found out that these were taken at alisons shoot. HR

We tried her body at a few different angles to see whether that would change the look and feel and also to give options towards editing the footage and compositing later. AM

New Look Newsreader alison - development

This is the new studio I composited together for alison, I'm not sure about the graphics at the bottom right corner. This will be resurrected if there is time at the end of the project to polish one or two things up.

Whilst I'm talking about newsreader development stuff I may as well qickly explain that I have just finished directing Alex with his newsreader and we have also a little news intro helping to separate the intro of the trailer with main tension building scenes. Anyway, I'll comment more on that when Alex post the videos for these scenes.

Alison News - Development

I showed parts of this clip in a recent tutorial suffering some heavy criticism for it which is a good thing as it was all constructive. Basically the problem lies with the fact that the entire newsroom backplate I have made is contradictory of itself, the blurred out city background is an image of melbourne found on the net which suggest local news but the lighting and much the graphic elements suggest national or international news. at least there is still plenty of time to resurrect these problems

Alison News Test - Development

This is an initial test render for newsreader alison, it's looking alright for a first attempt however the footage could maybe benefit from having some curves placed on alison to crush the blacks.

shape shift/eye replacement test - Development

This is a bit of an upgrade from the last test of this shot I did, whilst the lighting and background is an improvement, the composition still isn't convincing enough. I'll give it another go after looking at some other reference images and effetcs.

shape shift/eye replacement test - Development

Original shape shift/eye replacement test. The effects aren't too bad on Daz but the background looks fairly poor.
