Real-Time Matchmoving and Green Screen Compositing in Blender 4.0 is the BEST

[@nfrancisj2122]

This is not match-moving. Match-Moving is when you match a 3D Object, the car, to a real object, real car, usually moving on set. This is more... texturing.. maybe texture/camera projection. 2.5D Compositing. Nice end result though.

[@davidmcsween]

Yeah, it would've been nice to know that before the 7 minute mark...

[@jones1618]

Exactly, but if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck ... What's amazing is that it takes a static 2D shot and applies 3D camera moves to it without losing realism. It makes the CGI artist the director of photography, sort of. Had the director done all the camera moves "live", not only would it have required a choreographed dolly crane ballet on set and the CGI artist would have had to painstakingly matchmove that, there would be very little flexibility to change the movement later. Here, you get the same effect with a lot less work (both on-set and in Blender) and the director could decide to have the camera bob up or down or weave left on a certain beat, faster here, slower there ... all in post. That's brilliant.

[@MrMadvillan]

yeah, it’s just a 2d card rendered in 3d where the footage is an asset. match moving requires “matching” cameras as the name suggests.

[@The_Eldest_Millenial]

If you have to consider, workaround, or otherwise incorporate three axis in the work, it is 3D. Period. Opinions on this are irrelevant.

[@JimmySahlin]

Yeah, there was a certain vital camera solver lacking in this so called matchmove.

[@cheapartist4716]

COMPLETELY FOOLED ME WITH THIS TRICK!! I totally believed that tracking was involved.

[@quadcom]

Technically this isn't match moving. Match moving is matching blender camera movements to composited camera footage, hence the "match" part. Good intro to green screen compositing but I'd update the title.

[@simongarcia8694]

I was going to write exactly the same. Would have been nice if the original video with green screen had movement to track it in blender, in such case that had been match moving, but he animated the camera…

[@MIproject]

Interesting! Still I think it is important to note that "matchmoving" actually refers to the technique of extracting 3D camera translations (position+rotation) in live action footage and then having a 3D camera using this movement to render a 3D scene accordingly. if there was no camera movement while shooting in the first place, matchmoving is the wrong term. What you actually do is have a 3D scene with camera movement and include an animated texture as a *billboard*. the effect is really nice, it is just not what I actually expected. another detail; your perspective is a bit inaccurate if the billboard does not fill the entire camera view -> if the live action was shot at 24mm but the billboard only covers 80% of your view, the visual perspective is actually more wide angle (-> 24*0.8≈19mm). this leads to a camera that appears farer away in 3D than it was while shooting (=distorted perspective), or the artist is appearing smaller than she actually is. you can compensate for that if you shoot with a longer lens and bigger distance to her. of course, moving the 3D camera also results in a somewhat inaccurate perspective, still this is negligible if not done excessive. one last thing; the easiest way to bring the billboard into camera space is either just align it to the camera, or parent it under the camera and then zero its local rotations. also, if you know her height and the distance between her and the camera while shooting, you can work in cm units, which really helps fixing the relations.

[@BrianHuether]

Hi, just curious, isn't there a way to have the image plane be aligned to the camera so that the actor is always properly angled in front of the camera?

[@tiedtkeio]

Hi Brian, yes sure is! By using "constraints" you can achieve this. 🙂

[@prowokemusic7033]

Great!

[@tiedtkeio]

Thanks for watching! 😌🙌🏾

[@PrinceWesterburg]

It would be easier to constrain the camera to look at a target empty then put noise on the camera motion graph. Also, its best to do colour correction before green screen removal as it works better and leaves you with media with correct lighting. Great video though, love your laid back Dutch approach - true artist! :D

[@juanfxblender]

Hi, awesome tutorial, is there any reason why you used After Effect instead of Blender To to do the masking and the png sequence?

[@tiedtkeio]

Hi Juan, thanks for watching! Because After Effects is the software you want to use for that. I try to use the programs the same way as major VFX houses would - that way if I ever get hired for a studio I can more easily adapt their workflow and be more attractive for them to hire me again. You can do it in Blender, but most large studios wouldn't. To be fair they would do it in After Effects either, probably Nuke, which is what I'm learning now. :)

[@juanfxblender]

@@tiedtkeio I see, thanks for your fast and complete respond to my question, again, awesome job!!!

Wow. Kick a$$ tutorial - thanks so much I would love to see more of the match moving process involving the lighting and environment stuff. Question: She's lip syncing to her song - so when you imported the footage is the audio attached to it? Or is the footage pre-synced and this clip just gets matched back up with the audio after? Cheers again!!

[@tiedtkeio]

Hi! Sorry for such a late reply. If it's still relevant I did everything without audio and then simply matched the render with the song audio again in DaVinci Resolve. 🙂

She looks so dull and flat in the viewport but looks brighter and more 3D in render. Any tips on how to do this?

[@bensimon821]

What's the lens distortion effect you're using?

[@tiedtkeio]

There is a built-in distortion effect in the compositor in blender called "dispersion" under lens effects, this particular one though in the video was made with Sapphire plugins for After Effects called Universe.

[@stealther1231]

Can you re-time the image sequence after you've imported it as a plane? like moving it further in the timeline? When you need for example to aligned the "clip/image sequance" with some action.

[@eduardorod2140]

Can this be done in cinema 4D ?. Thank you.

[@tiedtkeio]

Most likely! I haven't used C4D so can't say how you do it, but it should probably be the same method. :)

[@yeahrightbear8883]

Really cool but I didn't like the part where you just guessed on the camera movement. Putting more time into this part would have really elevated the final result. That being said it still looked really good in the end.

[@randomedia9879]

I don't get the title.. this is neither realtime, nor matchmoving?

[@inoyashakitbu1178]

a little tip : go in the camera view before you add image to plane

[@tiedtkeio]

Yes! 😊🙏

[@griptopia]

Great but as freelancers and employees we need to remember that the easier it gets in the software the less they will want to pay us out in the workspace / job market. I started with stuff like this in after effects back in the early 00's after getting into AE in the late 90's. All of us 3d guys need to band together.. as an industry we need to start protecting our jobs. Overseas competition is the norm now and the only thing keeping work going for us right now is that those low paid guys cannot afford the hardware!! That's changing. Great tutorial just spreading the word , dont just be a 3d puppet for a living guys be a teacher, be a person who educates our new up and coming to understand how the big websites / job agencies are controlling your wages.. Blender is free... but the hardware isn't... Great tutorial.. I want to see people in developing countries do well but our industry is virtual.. it can be done anywhere! xx

@@Hencekevin Is your Blender timeline the same amount of frames as there are PNG images? If you're at frame 0 in the timeline and the first frame starts at 1 or even let's say 254 your image plane will be transparent/pink/violet.

Hi! You're probably just on the wrong frame in the timeline. Make sure your image sequence match with your timeline. If the image sequence starts at frame 3758 it won't show up since the timeline starts at frame 1. 😊

Great tutorial, a quick observation... if you want a fast playback. Don't go to "render view", use the "solid view" to view the image on the plane, use the drop down menu where you can change the "studio, flat, random and material" setting, you will see an option to choose "texture"... (I'm talking about the drop down button on top the axis gizmo) If you choose texture, you will be able to see the image on the plane, in the solid view. And the playback will be faster. Except if you have subdivisions or a very heavy scene. Thanks man
