Matte Painting IDEAS:

As everyone in class has difficulty in coming up with an idea, Mr. Kannan gave us a task to come up with 5 different theme of matte painting - just the blockouts to get a rough ideas.

Fig.1. First matte painting - Rocky Mountain desert

Fig. 1.1. Second matte painting - Cave

Fig. 1.2. Third matte painting - Witch Forest

Fig. 1.3. Forth matte painting - Castle in an island

Fig. 1.4. Fifth matte painting - Forest Adventure
For my selected theme of matte painting I was thinking to have like a forest and waterfall. I was inspired and got some idea from the jungle book environment. On the ninth wee of class, Mr. Kannan help us to draw the rough ideas.

Final Outcome:

In this second project, I learnt how to make use of camera angle to layer each of the images I separated in photoshop. Aside from that I learnt that patience is the key to make this matte painting especially when I bring it to after effects and make sure of the camera movement. Doing this matte painting is fun especially edit and paint it in photoshop.

The difficulty that I found is that coming making the edges smooth enough to be believable also playing with the camera movement. A lot of practice and patience is the key to a good outcome with a believable look and feel.
