This week our team made the executive decision to scrap our live plate integration. We had some difficulties with our footage in addition to a full CG recommendation from the mentors so we decided to make a small pivot. While I was disappointed that I had finished my integration light rig and our camera track set up beofre we made this choice I was excited to face the new challenge.
Personal Goals
- Improve AOV output
- Optimize renders
- Shadow layers for compositing
- Better integrate effects
Lighting
I worked off my integration light rig for the new lighting set up and modified it to focus on amplifying the subtle pastels of our new color scheme while keeping the bottle as the focal point.
The temperature and intensity ratios were developed to create a slightly saturated smooth feel that would still allow for clear level of contrast in the scene.
We are using render layers of the scene elements for greater control in compositing and decreased render times.
