Different shot here and below is the midpoint of work on it. This shows usually what things look like after the first batch of elements are thrown together in AfterEffects. There isn't too much to smoothing this one out. In the maya generated box tunnel, I'll be adding tracking dots that AfterEffects can then use to map the 3d move and push that opening footage off to the left automatically rather than by my doing it by hand - it would be a little difficult to do with the arcing movement. Then the tunnel will get a few more boxes thrown in to make it more claustrophobic and not so regular. The lighting gets tweaked to match the environments of the two shots and the ending will get slowed down a bit so that we ease into the room instead of launch in. A nice touch is the rack focus towards the end as focus goes from the boxes to the zoetrope - it really covers the seams of where the cg meets the real footage. And there is still plenty of filtering to give the zoetrope room the proper fantasy feel.

What a great web log. I spend hours on the net reading blogs, about tons of various subjects. I have to first of all give praise to whoever created your theme and second of all to you for writing what i can only describe as an fabulous article. I honestly believe there is a skill to writing articles that only very few posses and honestly you got it. The combining of demonstrative and upper-class content is by all odds super rare with the astronomic amount of blogs on the cyberspace.
