When I look back at my project, I see some key issues with it. Firstly, I must admit that my inexperience in shooting led to a lack of consistency in the tracking during the compositing process. This created some instability and an unrealistic feel to the overall visuals. Also, I realised that I had handled the roto part rather roughly. Due to the lack of time, I was unable to devote my energy to detailing, which resulted in some of the edges and contours of the images looking less than fine.
However, I would also like to mention some of the highlights of my project. Firstly, I put a lot of time and effort into the pre-research work. I carefully created storyboards and carefully planned the entire storyline and shot design. This gave me a clear direction for the subsequent filming and editing work.
In addition, I think I achieved something in terms of editing. I spent a considerable amount of time organising and editing the material to achieve a smooth and engaging storytelling. My editing work resulted in an overall well-paced project.
Despite the shortcomings of my project, I have also learned valuable lessons from it. I realised the importance of filming techniques and post-processing, as well as the need to allocate time and resources wisely. For future projects, I will focus more on training and practice in filming to improve the consistency of compositing results. I will also make improvements in time management to ensure that I can allow enough time to perfect detail processing, such as roto.
Overall, I am satisfied with the results of my pre-research work and editing, but I also recognise that there is still room for improvement in terms of technical execution. Through this project, I not only learnt a lot about 3D plus compositing and skills, but also realised where I was lacking in certain areas, which will help me become more professional and better in future projects.
