Compositing test

For The Magpie, post-production will play an important role in making sure the animation blends believably with the background. For example, shots with a background involving a strong light source will be complimented with effects, applied to the overlaid animation in After Effects, to simulate the same light hitting the subject.

Here is a little compositing experiment using a generic park image from Google as a makeshift background.
I noted the general direction, and colour, of the light and shade, and tried to replicate it over the man. Largely, I would say this has been successful, but the tweaking will continue.
