Week 8, Self Directed Study Compositing 3d Elements

Learning After Effects with 3ds Max Files 


Week 8       -  Compositing 3d Elements 



            The 8th week of myself directed study I watched the 8th video of the of the “Let Learn 3ds max season 1” videos on BrandonJLa. This tutorial is all done in after effects and nothing else was done in 3ds max only are rendered out files where. Something that i have been doing wrong and why some of my work could have looked better was because of my project setting of my color setting's. I should have been working in 32 bits per channel and sRGB iec61966-2.1. If i would have changed this in my setting blending on my objects would have been smother looking. 





      We learned this week how to change setting or your image in after effects. We use the color picker to find out are values of the Skye and compared it to the ball sky, here we are making sure that both images have the same light value. In the video he goes through the tool for color correcting and what he does to get his scene looking good. Something that I learned and I never did was matching the scene saturation. I didn't know the color picker tool had all this information built in it. This is much easier then trying to match by using your eye. Shadows are the same thing you but only a little bit different. He duplicate's his shadow's' and use the add and screen mode on both layer so he can tune in his effects easier. This ended up working for my scene . The final result for my first time trying to use multiple renders. 




Here are some photo's of the results I got before and after my my corrections.
