Part 2 of 2 understanding CGI integration

The point of this blog is to get you to start thinking 3D integration rather then educating you on any particular technique.  Compositing and 3d Computer graphics design takes years to master so I wright this with no intention of saying this is the end all be all of how to view and tackle CGI.  However, I will say that understanding some simple concepts can help you tackle even the most challenging of visual effects.  

Part 1 of 2 understanding CGI integration

Computer-generated imagery (CGI) intergeneration in any visual medium can add visual flair no mater how stubble or complex.  In fact studies show that a commercial using CGI visual effects will ingage more audience members and increase branding potential over all.   I would show you the findings, but I can't seem to remember what article it was when posted in creativity magazine.  In any case, CGI integration or compositing in general can be easy and complex at the same time.  For the average consumer, adding CGI can be exciting and fun to watch, but for the filmmaker it can be a scary thought.

HDDSLR, and the fueled Technological movement

One thing that hit me the other day is how simular motion picture Film is to that of Digital, That is if Digital has the right components to mesure up to its big brother "Film."  I believe film will never truly go away.  The reality is we are coming to an age where the indi filmmaker and the consumer is demanding outstanding image quality.  Even I, a videographer can no longer use my DVCAM because my clients are no longer accepting any thing less then.  Is it an age of digital snobbery and mesturbation?  Or are we the consumer rising up as a collective and demanding image superiority because we consume so much digital content.  It might be a little of both.
