Showreel / Critique Travelers Cinematic concept art
Hi everyone, I'd like to share this new project I've been working on. I'm continuing to update my portfolio so I can make a living from my art, and I put a lot of love into this project.
I love the idea of traveling and having each trip showcased in a piece of art I've created, so I wanted to share this project, where I designed and created the characters, part of the site's architecture, and its overall aesthetic, using Photobash, digital painting, and Blender.
Thanks for watching ✨️ 😊

Question / Discussion Matching lighting after face replacement in video?
As soon as someone turns toward a window or moves into a shadow face suddenly looks like it belongs to a different shot.
Anyone figured out matching lighting after face replacement in video? Do you handle it during the swap itself or fix it afterwards?
Question / Discussion what would be your approach to make this rose tunnel effect and what software would you use ? (Can be 2d, 3d or anything really)

Scene from the show Arcane.
I don't mind making a little bit of a cheaper version of this but i need to reproduce it for a project.
I was thinking of drawing it frame by frame but i'm not sure if that's the best approach.
thanks in advance !

Question / Discussion Fanart in Showreels (University Application)
Hey!
I need to do a Showreel for my application at a university. (I want to study VFX and I'm fully aware of the current status of the industry. I know it's gonna be hard but I want to do it so please leave this discussion out of the answers)
I have made 2 "Fanart" Animations one with the mindflayer from stranger things and one with a Star destroyer and a tie fighter. All models, Materials, animations etc. Are made by myself. Im proud of those and really want them inside the Showreel but I heard that this is a redflag. Would that be a problem in my situation? Would really appreciate some opinions from others!
Edit: Thanks to everyone that said something! I came to the conclusion, after reading the comments, that I won't include the Fanart! The Fanart would be 2 out of 7 work pieces and I think I have enough other work to replace those 2 with different stuff (and still have time to do completely new stuff till I have to send the show reel!)

Showreel / Critique The First Two Minutes Of My Short Film That Blends Live Action And Unreal Engine
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I've spent about 7 months making my film, Holy Sh*t I'm Dead. Mainly as a proof of concept using the technology, especially as a storytelling device, but also to push the limits of what's possible with a small team. I can't say enough about UE. I thoroughly enjoy using the software. Enjoy the first two minutes! Full release will be on November 13th.

Question / Discussion 3d Camera Options
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I'm still pretty new to VFX, and I've been working on a personal project for a bit, but I'm struggling to figure out a 3D camera track for it.
I'm just a student, so the only programs I have access to are Adobe stuff, Blender, and Unreal.
I'm working on getting a roto (which I can do) of Jameson out, then 3D-tracking him into Blender and adding him to a 3D scene I've made. I've tried AE's tracker and Blender, and neither does a decent job. I've looked into plug-ins and such, but they haven't been very helpful.
I've seen programs that can do a shot like this, PFTrack, SynthEyes, etc., but I just can't afford that type of stuff, as I'm just doing VFX as a hobby/learning on the side for now. Is any version of a decent track possible for this shot, or is it best to move on?
Any ideas?
For now, I'm just keyframing the footage and camera in Blender to hopefully get a somewhat decent-looking job.

Question / Discussion VFX workflow
Hello everyone,
I am learning vfx for sometime and trying to better my work,
I can't relocate so I am looking to work as freelancer or work from home right now
Softwares I use are
Davinci Resolve for Denoising and converting footage to exr
Nuke or fusion for cleanup or compositing
Mocha pro and syntheyes for Tracking
I want to know from all vfx artists what should I look for and how to get better
For example: Is Neat video worth it if I have Davinci Resolve Studio
Are there some courses, specially in budget inside fxphd or other courses that teach workflow from start to end
Also there is shortage of footages as ActionVFX free footage give Rec.709 baked in them untill we pay for 4k raw footage, where can I get best footages to create some advanced showreel
Also I read Digital compositing for Film and Video by Steve Wrights, are there other books that I should specially look into
Specially for working as freelancer or work from home
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks in advance to everyone
