Advanced 3D
Lesson 3 of 4 3D Matte Painting
In this Lesson you will do the majority of your scene's modeling work. You will go over shaders, color spaces, effects, and vegetation. After this, you will render your scene and be ready for the upcoming final step in the process.
Detailing Your 3D
Bring your 3D scene to the highest level of detail possible, and then render.
Extra Credit
Experiment with the 3D. You could even go a step further by animating some people or objects. This is a useful skill for generalists, as it is sometimes requested by clients.
Student Homework
Lesson 1
Planning
Steven will first take you through his past projects, showing the skills he acquired throughout his career in order to break into the VFX industry. He will then address some of the most common questions about matte painting as a discipline, and take you through VFX breakdowns of some of the most popular films to explain how their effects were achieved. You will then begin conceptualizing your project for this Course by using the Brief Builder tool, and assemble all the photographic references you will draw from in future Lessons.

Lesson 4
DMP and Comp
This is where your whole project comes together. You will rebuild your renders from the previous Lesson inside of Nuke, and move into the Photoshop painting part of the process. You'll then merge your CG with your 2D elements using compositing, adding various flourishes to make everything shine. Finally, Steven will take you through the steps of a professional delivery pipeline, so that you can be ready for any studio environment.
