Class 3

September 18th, 2022

All of the beach shots have now been tracked and color graded. I put all 7 proxy doors in the scene to help me visualize where I want them to go.

This is a 3D view of what my doors look like in Nuke along with my Nuke script. I hope to get a second pair of eyes to confirm that my tracks look good so that I can move into Houdini.

I am putting all my focus on the last shots of the video as they are the most difficult. I am starting with camera tracking and will move into Houdini for modeling, texturing, lighting, and the door simulation.

As I am typing, the first beach shot has been tracked and color graded. I collected many references on Pexels that I am using to achieve the color grade of an old film camera. I also added a film grain on top. My references have a bit of a blur, but I have decided to exclude that for now. I may add a little bit to the background after I composite in the foreground (door and person). In the future I would also like to add the bigger film grain and the black edges.
