Class introduction

We are exposed to a lot of media in our daily lives, and we unknowingly encounter many computer graphics, or CG (computer graphics), within them. Sometimes in behind-the-scenes footage of a movie or TV show, the green screen behind a character is the most basic foundation for creating the picture we'll eventually see on a cell phone or TV. In this way, CG makes up for insufficient production costs during filming, and is also a very powerful art tool to finally obtain the picture the director wants; these works make workers and the like imagine other worlds beyond the screen, and they also become a dream for anyone watching.

In such an attractive CG, work is actually carried out through many processes and various parts. Among them, the part that is responsible for the background beyond the back of the green screen using a photo or source in a movie or TV show is a matte painter.

The “work” of using Matt Painter's creativity and imagination to fill beyond the green screen is very fascinating. I'm really honored to be able to introduce this field to the class. I've prepared a course where you can fall in love with Matte Painter by learning one by one, so all you have to do is prepare to enter now.

The medium of movies and TV shows is one of the most attractive media. The drama we usually watch is created through various processes, and one of the great advantages is that we finally create media that other people watch in the creative field.

This lecture will be able to show you the appeal of Matt Painter in creating the background for a movie or TV show you are curious about.

❸ An introduction to matte painting from an industry practitioner!

Creating a place that doesn't exist with Photoshop

Matte painting has a limited community, and few people do it, so there's very little information you can get. So you'd think it's a very difficult industry to get into. The matte painting work you actually learn at an offline school and the portfolio you create is not a matte painting, but just a result worthy of being called a compositor. Since I've been studying various parts of the VFX part over a long period of time at the school, I can only create unattractive portfolios without focusing on any of them.

This course can be said to be an introductory guide designed for such people. In class, you can learn everything from basic theory of matte painting (perspective, light, reflection, etc.) to practical examples. We've prepared it for those who didn't feel ready to get started because they didn't have any information until this point. Prospective matte painters, just be prepared to absorb all of your knowledge and skills!
