This shot is from a BlenderGuru tutorial where Blender was used to track and composite a CG hole onto a perfectly fine road. Instead of using the new Blender tracking feature I used SynthEyes to track the shot. I wanted to use SynthEyes as it has a very good lens distortion workflow which allows you to re-distort the CG elements to better match the original distorted plate. Blender was used for the graphics and FinalCut Pro X for combining the original plates and the hole.

This plate shows a toy car shot against a green screen. A light is circled over the car to provide dynamic “street” lighting. The key challenge with this shot is the significant amount of reflections on the car of the green screen. This was addressed by creating a hand made rotoscope mask for the outline of the vehicle. The car was color corrected in the compositor. To make the shot more convincing a matchmove was produced from the background street plate and the resulting camera shake was transferred to the original green screen shot.

This plate shows the actress focused intently on the CG character (she doesn’t look very pleased). A matchmove was necessary to ensure the CG character stood correctly in the scene with the eyes located at the point of focus i.e. the white ball on a stick. The green screen spill was not too bad except on the side of here face.
I incorporated the bunny character from the Big Buck Bunny open movie and animated it to fit the scene.

In this plate she walks over and sits on a chair. To replace the green screen prop with a CG chair a matchmove was used to match the plate with the CG environment as well as provide some feature tracks on the green screen chair. These features were used to obtain the correct positioning of the new chair.
The biggest problem with this plate was the huge amount of green spill on the actor. Normally this would be minimised by using spill suppression techniques e.g. black cloth etc. The result is that the procedural matte is a little extreme!

This shot calls for an outdoor scene to be added for the window. It required a green screen matte that would retain the glass reflections from the room. Although you won’t be able to see in the online video, the faint room reflections were composited back into the HD output. The matchmove worked very well as there were plenty of features that provided excellent parallax.

This is a simple pan-tilt shot so the matchmove was fairly simple. The green screen cloth however has wrinkles so required some roto work to supplement the procedural matte.

This is a matchmove exercise in addition to the green screen matte extraction and compositing. The matchmove was performed with SynthEyes and used in Blender to animate the background scene.

This shot required a number of techniques to complete. I had to rotoscope the gun when it passed in front of the mic stand and the ceiling. Also colour spill removal was difficult due to the high gloss of her coat.

This plate is a basic test matchmove shot. This procedural matte created for this plate needs a bit more work but the point was to test the matchmove so it is good enough for this.

This is a test to see how well you can isolate a shadow matte. Separating this matte simplifies the composite because you have fine control over the appearance of the shadow density and colour.

The two difficult parts of this composite were dealing with the transparency of the material and the colour correction due to the high green spill in the original video sequence.
