Critical Reflection
I have done a lot of post-production work in this collaborative project. I am happy with the group work, but at the same time, I realised a lot of problems with the group work. What I was more satisfied with this project was the FX part, I really liked the FX elements I did. I found the work very interesting for me. I think I will learn more systematically about the particle system in Maya and the various effects in Houdini in my future studies. Another thing that I am happy with is the editing in this project. The editing made up for some of the shortcomings in the pre-production and helped with the final presentation. However, the one thing that I think needs to be improved on this project is the compositing. I didn’t think about the camera movements associated with the 3d scene compositing in advance during the pre-production shoot, which caused the camera movements to collide with the camera movements set up in the 3d scene halfway through the compositing, adding some extra work for myself. It also affected the final result a little. There is still a big lack of experience in terms of workflow. More practice is needed to make up for this shortcoming. In my next studies, I should pay more attention to practice and communication with other people in the workflow to ensure that I have enough time and allow myself some revision time. I also need to practice more in the 3D section of nuke.
I should confirm with everyone on the next collaborative project the job responsibilities and deadlines for the work to avoid running out of time due to rendering and other issues. This was a problem for our group this time. It caught me very off guard. Other than these issues it was great and everyone did a great job.
