Matte Techdemo

Hey guys!
Those Matte paintings are coming along! I will be up all night again to get things finished.

Now, I am headed off to Vegas here tomorrow at about 3 PM for the NAB convention. I will be back Wednesday night. I am going to run these files over to Aaron tomorrow before I leave, for I foresee that there might need to be a couple of corrections to them.

The convention closes every night at 6:00 in which I will either be at my hotel or McDonald's (free internet :D ) from that point on. I will have Photoshop and AE with me on my laptop with a tablet. If you need anything in particular, please send a Text asap (801 368 8282)

My dropbox is FULL so I took Abel's suggestions and I just opened another one (one of these days I will pay for one of those accounts..) I would like to get a couple of people's e-mails addresses who will have access to the school servers that can take the files for the Matte paintings, etc. and post them up for me.

And, Friday morning I took a matte, threw it into AE, and tested it to get a feel of how the layers were going to work etc.

Video one: simple effects
simple camera pull in with the matte on 3D layers



Video two: The Layers
Just to give you a feel as to what this thing really looks like




Video three: Evolving clouds
Used the liquify tool to add VERY SUBTLE cloud flourishes so that none of the layers are stagnate. this video should feel most comfortable on the eyes. If you want to see why, rip the vid from youtube and scrub the timeline in Quicktime.





Again, please comment with a couple of e-mail addresses that I can add to the Dropbox folder so I can make any needed updates to these files while I am out of town / get them to you in the first place!
