Matt the god of matchmoving! He is so energetic! His old demo reel early 2000s was inspirational. Great to hear his stories. Newtek Video Toaster with Lightwave was a dream system I could not afford back in the days. I started Amiga and Atari around 1989. I feel old haha. Boujou was like 9k usd! I love Syntheyes and still use it today. Super fast and efficient (ugly interface tho ahah) .... :) Did you guys interview Russ Andersson? Before Syntheyes, he made a matchmove plugin for 3dsmax Scene Genie. Genius. Great that you guys feature the unsung heros in VFX. Interview roto artists! Anamorphic and distorted lenses. Looks cool but a nightmare to track :)
Great to see someone talk about matchmove here! I'm a matchmove artist and work on hollywood projects with 3dequalizer but I would love to learn Syntheyes. Hope to see more on matchmove in the future!
Glad you found this interesting!! We have other matchmove episodes within our matchmove and layout playlist. One especially with Rolf, creator of 3DEqualizer, if you’ve not already seen it. Look out for our matchmove & layout playlist on our channel. Direct link here Matchmove & Layout ua-cam.com/play/PLkRxcjDyFpIfviDiAfvzbJ4G21j2Z5fiu.html Hope to bring more matchmove topics.
I think it would be cool to dove deep into the back end of the vfx pipeline. In most facilities this is taken care of and the artist just has to ensure all the files they use are on the server and not on their local machine. If it's a cloud based service then it's all about relative paths and within the folder structure you upload.
To add to this most facilities with use a publish database system such as Shotgrid or FTrack to manage their assets. Anyway we will have a look into booking a guest who can dove a bit deeper into this aspect.

@@TheVFXArtistsPodcast thanks for the clarification
lmao All the work is done by the 1000 background artists ....
meanwhile all the glory goes to Actors/actresses
Unfortunately that’s what tends to happen. We need better representation for artists. Or take actions into our hands.
