1st compositing test/fire escape pre-viz

Here is the first compositing test putting all the lads into one shot.

This is where they escape from the main building to the flat roof on the second building (the grey shapes), over a dangerous fire escape (the red shape) that has collapsed from one building onto the other. It is precarious and about 40m above street level.



Chris use this video as a guide to how the fire escape is to be used. We join the action as they are already walking on the fire escape. I've indicated bounces and collapses if you have the time to animate it. If you do have time we can precede this shot with an establishing shot of the entire collapsed escape across the two buildings and then another shot of the escape as it collapses downwards. What do you reckon? Have you the time? It would be dramatic. :-)



Dave B use this pre-viz as your guide when compositing the actual keyed HD footage together.

Stas use the rough shapes in positioning the rendered 3D building together with Chris' fire escape.

  1. Hey, it's matty and I think that the whole thing is coming along really well =]. But on this test I think that me and phill look daft compared to the way aaron and dom do it so I was just wondering if it would be possible to keep the bits of aaron and dom the same but use different shots of it for me and phill?
    Thanks

  2. Hi, good to see you're keeping tabs.

    Don't fret yet this is pre-viz so wait to see how it looks in the final rendered scene. I bet then your runs wont look daft but dangerous. Trust us to make the scene work. Keep on watching it develop.
