Hi

[@mau2k3]

I think for me the most difficult part would be the compositing and green screening But u haven’t discussed that :(

[@justminibanana9128]

@@mau2k3 kzbin.info/www/bejne/iaGXkoqrd8qBp7M he has done a video on it, I've yet to watch it so idk how well it would work.

[@lightspeedbubble7359]

I'm a little concerned. You're spray painting indoors, without gloves or protection for your clothes but more importantly without a respirator (or at least the mask you have in your hand). Aerosols can have long term adverse health effects and with enough spraying you can get dizzy or even faint. Also please remember that some viewers may follow your example since this is a tutorial.

[@lightspeedbubble7359]

Hugin is a very powerful program. As for its pronounciation, given how the stick figure in the logo seems to be hugging a panorama with its arms, I'm almost certain it's pronounced the same way.

2:49 for those guys are new to blender, press R to rotate.

[@inv41id]

In this case I think it would be R and then Z to rotate about the Z axis

[@HoloTheDrunk]

If you're *that* new to Blender that you don't even know the basic controls, there is absolutely no way you could figure out motion tracking on the fly... It's like if you went on a speedpaint video and commented "For the guys that are new to drawing, draw a line."

maybe it was cg too?!!!?

Appreciate the bit at 3:13 where he switches on the green-screen, with green paint on his hands but his hands don't vanish.

[@Casper5]

It's a mask I guess

[@3laws292]

Probably a dark background

[@suffoc8]

Judging by the edge around him, seems like it could be a blue screen edited green and then switched to black

someone's gonna make a meme with that image one day, i don't know when but i have a gut feeling about it.

[@jacobunknown]

You can also use meshroom to stitch a 360 image together.

[@eddyalienstudio7227]

That moment when he could have just bought a green ball instead and coated it in a matt finishing spray

[@rdoetjes]

Now a tip from a VFX compositor and TD who started as a Special FX engineer. Rough the ball up with some 400 or 800 sandpaper. Then spray a matte white or grey primer on it. Then the green Then a matte laquer. That way the paint will stick far better. And kids, many passes and thin coats of the rattle can is better than a wet coat. Wet coats on spherical objects will cause drippies. And always keep your spray can, nozzle or airbrush moving from side to side or up and down. Don’t linger to layer paint 🤓 And for CGMatter you may wanna do some spill suppression on the right bottom side near the hand.

[@יובלהרמן-ח2ד]

So cool you showed hugin! Its really one of the most powerful panorama tools out there yet stilll with complete automatic panorama if you don't want to delve in

[@pro100ker]

on some frames, down of the ball, where it gets in shadow by ur hand, it becomes green

[@qwertyfff4722]

Not only the matte finish is needed, but also more uniformal lighting to avoid colour leaking artifacts. Or use a different masking method.

[@fffmpeg]

I think it's hugin like hugging - notice the hugging in logo

[@phsopher]

wow sphere cgmatter looks like a grownup

[@ob4359]

Dude is a genius!

[@Cryptizism]

5:29 that yummy green accent on the right bottom

[@ToroKeVODs]

Either Daisuke is really good at greenscreening and comping or he did it for real. You can tell by your ball you see the green shadows under your thumb which really break the illusion. Also the edges on your ball were a little too blurry and sometimes didn't get covered by the photo. Overall a Great video! Cool concept and can't wait to see more!

There's also the Image Composite Editor from the Microsoft Store that is free, which you can make HDRi's with. At least i think Image Composite Editor is the software I'm thinking of, it's been a while since I've used it.

[@MurcuryEntertainment]

[@mantenbrink]

on the bottum right of the hand/ball you still see a lot of green. Maybe in the colorgrade you could desaturate all the green from the image to make this less distracting

[@def_not_dan]

Microsoft ICE is also free and pretty good at stitching images.

Microsoft Image Composite Editor (ICE) is completely free and stitches photos into all kinds of shapes, including spherical.

[@gnamp]

How would one go about creating a UV map for physically printing this effect? If you can create a cut-out that can be made into a sphere; presumably you can take an hdri, transfer it to this flat globe mesh in uv-mapped form, then print something which can be wrapped perfectly onto a physical ball...

The problem with holding your green screen is that your hands turn green from the indirect lighting. It's better to use I neutral colour ball against a contrasted background

Daddy default, since you're working with equirectangular stuff, I've got a request! I do work with a 360 camera (Insta360 One X) and the software for it is absolute ass. One of the things I need to do is reframe footage - like projecting the 360 footage to the inside of a sphere, stabilizing it, and using a scene camera to track sections of it to make it look like it was shot with a regular camera. I know it's a niche thing, but do you think you could do a video on that? I've got plenty of footage I could donate for you to work with.
