For this VFX project I applied skills used in previous vfx tasks to compose a film establishing shot which could be applied to future film work.
Duration: 1 hour
Difficulty: Intermediate
Software Used: Adobe After Effects
An issue which came about when creating this establishing shot was cutting around the debris in the shot. It was simply that it had many rough edges which took a lot of time to carefully trace around, however, I overcame this issue by going over it a couple of times. Furthermore, another issue which I faced was placing the Moon and Earth behind the mask of the debris. For some reason, after effects wouldn't allow me to do this. After several changes to settings and the order of the layers I was able to make this change. It was likely to have been a glitch in the software.
