@CarstripNice work @sh42n81 and very clean masking 😉
Yeah zoom does make the girls go out of position, iStripper fullscreen makes the girls zoom at a different rate than the background and masks, its just a fault of the program unfortunately. I found if youre using masks its best to just get rid of the camera zoom.
Also I like the lights you did in the roof, well done sir 👍
Thank you. My ideas have been inspired by the great work that has been posted here lately by you,
@Stanston, and
@titiii, espcecially your amazing Lush Hotel scene. Most of what I'll be posting will be more concerned with creating appealing backdrops for the models and less on showy effects. But the occasional, "hey, look what I just learned how to do" will be dropped in.
😀 It's desirable to me to integrate the models into the scenes as convincingly as possible, so masking will play a large part even when no other effects are used. I'm on the fence about shadows. When they aren't there, I don't notice their *****, which tells me they're not that important to me. I do notice when they look unnatural. Becuase they're so hard to get right, I'll probably stay away from them unless the scene features super bright light where a lack of shadow just looks silly. I feel kind of the same about reflections, but it's more noticible to me when they're missing. These girls ain't vampires, after all! lol
I haven't yet noticed masks being misaligned by zoom. I have one scene that I'm working on where the mask shimmers a little while the zoom is in progress. It's not ideal but I can live with it because everything is still in place when the motion stops.
The real zoom frustration for me is that I can't figure out if it's possible to set multiple zoom effects to run in sequence. What I really wanted to do with "Ruination 1" was to zoom in on one model for 10 - 20 seconds, then pull back, swing the target to the next model, zoom in on her for 10 - 20 seconds, and repeat for the third model. Kind of like the Game of Thrones opener. As far as I can tell, this can't be done--at least, not with the techniques that I have learned thusfar.
