Holy f*ck dude. You've crushed tutorial creation. Wonderfully complete, yet you know we have pause capabilities... so you SMASH us with data and trust us to unpack it at our own pace. I truly appreciate the completeness of your work. Thank you.
I'm gonna keep commenting this on every new video because the algorithm needs to catch on already, but these videos are insanely high quality. I can't even begin to understand how hard you must work to put out such good stuff so consistently. Keep it up, please! I'm learning tons!
The way you make Tutorials is really amazing and intutive man... Such passion towards blender and thanks for teaching us some epic new stuff which no one have never done or experrimented with before.... Amazaing as always... cheers mate
Damn ! Man who be you ???? Tracking, adding 3d stuff to live footage and make it look super realistic... These i can get it... But THIS ! Nooooo how did you event come out with such an idea ???? You might not have realized it but you have recreated one of Zach King tricks... Guess which one... However really thank you! You are gold to us !
OK this is awesome. I've been using blender for about four years but never looked into the composition and video editing stuff. Thank you very much. You made a subscriber out of me.
I just discovered you today, and your tutorials are absolutely amazing. I have never seen a tutorial on the things you teach, and I've used Blender for about two years. I love your stuff and hope that you keep doing it!
Man, thank you so much for those tutorials. I love the way you handle things: quick, easy and on point. I think that your tutorials are to quick for some people not as experienced in blender, but all in all I really appreciate your "effectiveness" in explaining what you are doing!
Outstanding work however one little thing; When tracking a matte (or animating anything) set the first frame and the last then the middle, then the quarters, eighths etc. This produces way smoother animation ;o)
Kudos! And what I absolutely love is that you always repeating rudimentary stuff one heard already, like the process importing sequence, setting floor etc. This feels like an "embedded" and complete sub-tutorial inside the tutorial, and keeps our forgetful minds refresh things in place. Thanks not saying "how to place cube in 3D tracking space, refer to blabla", but you are keep doing it all the time!
I’ve watched a handful of your tutorials and you are extremely talented and intelligent! Your skill with blender is amazing, and the techniques you use I would have never thought to use. I’ve learned so much from you! Thank you so much for this channel and I wish you an amazing future!
i always gey amazed by blender not only it let's you do everything from 3d modeling, rendering to advanced video editing buy it also takes no more than half a GB in size! amazing software
Hey! You learned to subdivide instead of adding loop cuts! The next thing you're going to tell me is that you decided to begin exporting your frames to an optimal format like TIFF or something.
Tip for newbies: Click on the "gear" in the RUclips playback window, then "playback speed" and change it to .5 so that you can grasp what this speed talker is saying... ;) Great tutorial, though! There was a free program years ago called "Icarus" that could do this automatically, but it's really hard to find now.
@@CGMatter TBH, I had no idea Blender could do anything near this. You've really opened up my eyes. Can't say I'm going to be using this technique anytime soon, but thanks so much for demonstrating it!
Hey man I just loved the video you made and I remember one thing that in one of your projection painting video I commented that you should make a 360 environment map projection painting tutorial and you said you will. I think it is time to make a tutorial on that.
I've been doing VFX inside After Effects and some other software for assist and Blender really blows me away. All of that done inside Blender?! A FREE software doing professional quality VFX!? Now I'm starting to switch to Blender.
Cg thank you for this absolute gem! Is there anyway or anyone here who can help me with the painted sequence? In the video at 10:28 the clean plate is set from frame to frame but in my file I can’t get that to work. The plan stays on the previously painted frame? Not sure if one of my sequences or projections is messed up but any help would be appreciated!
Good tutorial. How can you make someone who is holding a soda can be editing to hold your soda can instead. The video footage I have is someone holding a soda can and drinking from it. I want to replace the soda can with my own .
Great work!. From 2.45 to 2.54 have you locked the camera to view? You're saying 'rotate' the camera but the camera view on screen hasn't moved. Thanks
The original Footage is filmed at such a high frame rate it looks fake. Maybe try bringing it down to 24fps to make it look more realistic. But thanks for the vid
@@CGMatter Thank you for making your tutorials very streamlined without any time-wasting fluff! I was planning to watch this at 2x speed but you already made it fast so that wasn't necessary.
I would say that this technique really starts paying off when you're dealing with more complex geometry (more than just a face for the wall and one for the floor), after effects wouldn't do too well when the geometry behind the object is not simple
Good day BurrYEETo live, can I ask you, what is your intention to use Stalin as a reference here? I was born in USSR & living at one of its ex countries, just curious about why you mentioned him.
So, is this pretty much how they painted out Andy Serkis to composite Gollum in the shots when he's interacting with Elijah Wood and Sean Astin in _Lord of the Rings?_
Please, help! S.O.S. After tracking I am going to 3D Viewport and have the problem: trackers don't stick to they places on the footage - what is wrong?! They syick on they places on footage only in Orthographic Camera, not in Perspective camera settings..
How to deal with lighting changes?the clean plate lighting doesn’t match the rest of the scene when the scene lighting is complex. Any VFX pro here can share any tips and tricks? I use AE to do compositing too, anyone could help is greatly appreciated!
In this case you want to use eevee. The shading on the geometry is just an image texture node (no kind of bsdf) so cycles and eevee should give identical results, eevee however is faster at doing this. In other cases: cycles is more accurate (in the sense of how light bounces) and eevee is a fast approximation of the cycles result.
Can anyone give me a hand? After I use my clone brush to paint the "original" uv for the first frame, I change the frame and re project the "projected" UV from view but then my "original" UV gets completely messed up. What is going wrong? It seems like the UV didn't unwrap correctly but I'm not sure how to fix it.
These tutorials have been absolutely amazing! I've been using blender for years and didn't even know it had this kind of power in the compositor
This is because it has implemented on Blender 2.8, on Blender 2.79b it has the motion tracking but not the projection painting.
i just learned to make a donut in blender. but this.. this is true sorcery, i love it
😁
i KNOW JAJAJ.

I've learned 1 hour worth tutorial in 8 minutes already. I love you, man!
this older video of yours with the 2.8 version of blender just helped me earn 500€ for a wire removal freelance job, man! thank you so much
Blows my mind... Can't believe I never thought of a 3d matte.
zero chit chat , full throttle narration.. this should be a thing..great
I used this last year to learn projection mapping for my first time, now i;m using it in a vfx horror short film, this is awesome
Damn ! Man who be you ???? Tracking, adding 3d stuff to live footage and make it look super realistic... These i can get it... But THIS ! Nooooo how did you event come out with such an idea ????

Going through the second time is so good. Really great teaching style, leveraging known ways to actually get the steps well embedded in the brain.

You are the hero we need
Best tutorials. I really want to see your guide for camera and object tracking in one scene. Feels like you can do this)
Will definitely get around to this :)
This is some high grade magic here!
CGMaster your tutorials are one the best i've seen
It's CGMatter. Also I agree.
Absolutely perfect pacing. I have never seen a tutorial I've not immediately turned to x2 speed.
:) I completely resonate with this
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW. That looks pretty hard but looks SO cool
That's like VR! But not in real time :DDDD
i always gey amazed by blender not only it let's you do everything from 3d modeling, rendering to advanced video editing buy it also takes no more than half a GB in size! amazing software
Really is one of the best open source projects out there
Man! That´s super rad! Thanks a million for this tut!
Your lessons are brilliant. You eplaine quickly and clearly on the case. Thank you.
you are an absolute chad, keep up the good work!

Awesome ! please keep showing us such vfx techniques. thanks a lot

Can't wait to see what you'll do next!
Extraordinary. Chapeau, Sir. 👍
this is amazingly useful. I have been removing tracking markers with After Effects. I had no idea I could just do it in Blender
Wow, maybe ima go over to blender
Another superlative video. Thank you for your hard work.
Great tutorial! Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge!
Sensei you are awesome 💙💙

This is so cool. Great channel man

another great tutorial

Will still definitely get around to this but I may end up doing it using a different method (photogrammetry)
Man I am in love with Blender!
so cool, need to try this
Thank you CG matter.. YOU ROCK!!!
Outstanding tutorial. Thanks for the post!
Great tuto
You are a GENIUS !!!
Great series! thank you so much..
yay it's out!
Hi, thx for tutorial. When i paint, the mask looks darker and i see corners. What could be the problem?
I've been doing VFX inside After Effects and some other software for assist and Blender really blows me away.

Stalin irl
Amazing. Great work!
if you know some VFX tricks using blender please share it with us
THAT'S BADASS
Good tutorial. How can you make someone who is holding a soda can be editing to hold your soda can instead. The video footage I have is someone holding a soda can and drinking from it. I want to replace the soda can with my own .
When I start texture painting, The footage is alot dimmer. Is there a way to bring up the brightness? or what am i doing wrong?
just finished attempt number 7 I could've sworn everything was aligned, here I go again.
Hey, can you provide us with the original footage? I don't have a camera myself and can't film any footage to test this on. Thanks!
p a t r e o n
Could you make the project files available? I mean mostly the recorded videos as of training material. That'd be great!
Great work!. From 2.45 to 2.54 have you locked the camera to view? You're saying 'rotate' the camera but the camera view on screen hasn't moved. Thanks
Fantastic! Thanks!
:)
The original Footage is filmed at such a high frame rate it looks fake. Maybe try bringing it down to 24fps to make it look more realistic. But thanks for the vid
Would this effect work for lets say using CGI to remove limbs? (Like Lieutenant Dan in Forrest Gump?)
Absolutely, tricky part is adding in a stub of some kind (like a cross section of the limb)
@@CGMatter Awesome! thanks so much for replying!
really nice tutorial :) just out of curiosity... is this a synthetic voice?
nope, just very highly edited (to remove all gaps)
@@CGMatter Thank you for making your tutorials very streamlined without any time-wasting fluff! I was planning to watch this at 2x speed but you already made it fast so that wasn't necessary.
Would you say this workflow is easier/faster than doing the equivalent in AfterEffects? Cheers for the videos mate!
I would say that this technique really starts paying off when you're dealing with more complex geometry (more than just a face for the wall and one for the floor), after effects wouldn't do too well when the geometry behind the object is not simple
Question: How would you do it with reflective objects for example? Or something you want to remove in front of a moving object like a fire?
LOL You really took the longest route with this one. It's easily done in Mocha or silhouette way faster
Nice tutorial! can you provide footage for practice?
This is a great idea, I'll put some footage on my website in a bit (bottom of the page)
Footage is now live on the website!
@@CGMatter Thanks for the footages Man :)
People are getting too lazy, why don't you record it yourself with your smartphone?
Is it possible to Flatten yourself into the Ground with this methode? It quiet looks like it. Its Projectionpainting you into the ground.
Before doing this do I have to record the wall at the back of the object I want to remove together??
Yooou are too awesome!!
My hat good sir, is off. Unreal stuff.
😁
when do you breathe? Love your tutorials
😂
He doesnt. He entered the matrix long time ago. Doesn't eat or sleep probably either lol
This is exactly what Stalin would’ve wanted
Why?
@@ShadeAKAhayate Stalin was notorious for doctoring photos for propaganda purposes.

as far as I know fspy is only for still images (so we can only extract focal length information but not the position of a moving camera)
wtf this is magic
How to deal with lighting changes?the clean plate lighting doesn’t match the rest of the scene when the scene lighting is complex. Any VFX pro here can share any tips and tricks? I use AE to do compositing too, anyone could help is greatly appreciated!
i wish i didn't procrastinate so much so i can do this
Which render engine..did u use....cycles or eevee?...why?..which is better?
