Green Screen Car Driving VFX - Easy setup (low budget)

[@vrbalance2686]

He shows that he did this tutorial with a small green screen outside... but we creative types like thinking of excuses for NOT doing something to avoid failing.

[@BillZebubproductions]

This is yet another highly-enjoyable tutorial. I have seen other car/greenscreen lessons that were fun for basic shots, but this one added the nuances that separate hobby from pro. One of the new things that I enjoyed learning (that can be used for ANY greenscreen) is your keylight method. I also appreciate seeing "extract" being used.

Yeah, the front shield is really tricky... most VFX shots simply put stuff on there, like buildings and trees, but if you really watch what would happen, you would mostly have sky and clouds, and they would almost not more at all... so I am with you: really hard to get that right...

I plan on doing a driving desk shot where the camera will be placed on the hood of a black car (Datsun 280Z, left hand drive) to from the characters in the car and the car I want will be a CG car of a different model (1984 Nissan Fairlady Z, right hand drive). How do you suppose I should do the kighting and reflections for this? Especially for the front windshield (I cannot physically modify the real car in any way)

[@flo.motion]

Not sure if I got you 100% here. Can you remove the windshield for shooting and adding reflections in post later? Or you have a polarise filter for your camera to get rid it the real reflections? Or try to shoot from within the car and add reflections, sometimes you can get away with that too!!

[@kimjongoof5000]

Den Taxi Film hab ich vor ein paar Jahren gesehen und ich dachte die Aufnahmen sind echt. Also das sich das Auto in der Szene richtig bewegt hat. Das wurde echt gut gemacht. In vielen US-Serien sind die Szenen in Autos so schlecht gemacht. Die Autos im Hintergrund sind zu schnell, zu groß und wenn die Schauspieler z.B. lenken und eine Fahrspur wechseln, dann drehen die das Lenkrad meistens voll komisch. Das passt einfach nie richtig, aber dein Video ist echt gut geworden. 👌🏻

[@flo.motion]

Tausend Dank!! Thanks a lot! We had to shoot 4 full days in the studio only to get the driving sequences and then we had about 6 months with a team of 5 artists in Berlin and another 5 in Atlanta and about the same amount in our studio in Malta to get the job done!!

excellent work but since you had to do the countryside shot anyway perhaps you could have just closed both windows and apply an attachment for the camera to the right hand window. seems to work fine for me. you might have to bring up the light in the car to match the outside light. make sure the window is very clean.

[@flo.motion]

Hey, right! BUT: that's not the case if you shoot a move. For example you have one day where the actors can be in the greenscreen studio, or wherever you are shooting. (Because actors are expensive) So you want to shoot all scenes in one day, and that could be countryside. CIty, morning, midday, night. SO normaly you have a small camerateam filming all the scenes in advance and then you save money as you don't have to bring actors, light, sound, director, dop, producers, and so on to all those different locations... and: there are locations that do not exist, or you have to remove stuff from the BG, or add it in later. And I once shot with an actress, and she didn't even have a driving license. 😜😝

[@volkerallert5364]

@@flo.motion what ever works for you is ok. when i work for a feature film money is not an issue but when i do my hobby short films i have to pay for them myself and my means are very restricted so i use the cheapest option available. a car attachment by the way replaces a second tracking vehicle and it is much more accurate. also as i mentioned earlier, i understand very little about visual effects so i tend to use the mechanical option which is my field expertise.
