Feedback

Week 10: Give a description of what you intend to show for each composition. Make all the compositions 16:9. For #2 add cliff edges and pillars. Make the statue smaller to fit the frame. For #3 give it more story, blend the skeletons more, and bring the city behind it. Make things inconsistent and break bits of it. For #4 add remains of the gates around the ruins, and make a passage for the hero to walk through. Plan out all your layers and movements so that in the next project you can directly transfer to aftereffects.

Reflection

This was my favorite project out of all the modules. Digital Matte Painting was a new concept, and I thoroughly enjoyed learning and doing it. Creating new concepts and worlds of existing landscapes is such a unique idea, and it allows us to use our creativity. Since I have always liked Lord of the Rings concept design, I wanted to create something similar for my hero's journey. While searching for images, I came across this image of a mountain and knew I could try so many different things with it. Out of all my work compositions, 1 is my favorite, and I was glad I went with a portal design for it. I think animating this in the next project, and I can create a unique VFX.
