Delay on the first post but here it is.
The Aim of the Module is to create a filmed peice, involving a real object, replacing it with an identical CG copy of itself, and having that copy do something the real one is not capable of.
my original idea was to have someone walk into the kitchen, sit down eating a bowl of cereal, and have the toaster take off , flying around the room, and then out of it. while the character is oblivious to it.
the obvious problem, is that unless i buy a new toaster, the real toaster will be chrome, which has alot of reflections that have to be worked out in order for it to look believeable; i think HDRI lighting would be the best way to deal with that.
When the idea was mentioned, it was suggested i find/buy a completely green suit, and have someone wear it, pick up the toaster, and wave it around the room...
This idea poses many problems.:
1. finding the suit
2. finding someone to wear the suit. http://img2.doitstyle.com/big/4b56ad84638d2.jpg
3. being able to key them out of the scene, if they moved infront of anything that is moving itself, i.e the actor eating, or movement in windows. this would create really obvious faults.
4. shadows cast by the person in the suit would have to be keyed out somehow.
5. It creates a piece with no actual matchmoving or CG in it.
this takes me back to my original idea.
the cameras are currently booked out, so i will have a camera over the weekend to see what kind of shots they can do with their narrow lens'
