Project Overview
The aim of this project is to simulate and composite elements on a racing boat. The banner on the side of the boat was replaced with a new one, a cloth-simulated flag was added and particles were used to simulate water spray.
The sequence included two zoom movements — a zoom-in at the beginning and a zoom-out at the ending — requiring a variable focal length solve. This makes the camera track significantly more complex as the solver must account for the changing field of view throughout the sequence.
Techniques: Camera Tracking, Zoom Shot Solve, Cloth Dynamics, Particle Simulation, Compositing.
