Ive been hard at work!

ok needless to say, i havnt blogged in a while. but that dosnt by any means mean that i havnt been busy!

so this post will fill you in on what ive been up to. I started, after the last matchmove sucsess, with  high hopes on the large atrium shot. This went really well until it went badddddddd. I started with lots of nice well done, well thought out tracks which turned out nicely. Only certain areas needed to be manualy keyframed in clusters, so that was refreshing!. check it out, looks nice huh!:

Ok so then i solved for parralax. Nope. Nada. No paralax here. well ok there is a little.

around the balconys and doors there are a fair amout of simultanious movements that could technically be calculated but there are no strong tracking points there due to motion blur on the camera. So basically the result i came out with was a non-sensical model of the atrium which pulled in and out of accuracy as the shot went on. Rubbish. after a bit of playing i made a managerial descision to pass over this shot until a later date. I believe that with some more practical learning in mm-ing i will find other tips and tricks to help me solve this shot nicely.
