I have been thinking about what I should do with my project as I am much further behind that I had thought at this point. Jon suggested Imake a to do list and work toward it by looking at what I need to have in my final project.
First I need to have a title card; this will have my details such as name, the roll I am working towards, my contact details including a phone number and an email address. I should also include what software packages I have learned and used within the reel.
Second I need to have a shot of some matchmove/camera tracked footage, followed by a short breakdown in total it should last a maximum of 25-30 seconds. For this shot it would be a good idea to have something that is easy to track such as decals, a 3D object or even a background replacement.
Third, I need to have an example of projection mapping, this is the thing I am struggling most with at the moment however I am having more and more success with this as I work. This shot should be an exterior scene, as it should in theory be more straight forward compared to something like an interior corridor where you can tell it’d be incorrect with the smallest detail.
Fourth, I should have examples of matte painting and set extensions, this should be in a location which is open for additions or has room for footage to be edited in such a way to show skills. Perhaps a shot of the brayford waterfront would work best for this.
Finally to round the reel off, another title card with my details on it again.
In other news I have looked into doing an internship with Framestore it’s slow going but I hope to send this reel off to them as part of my application.
