The End

After playing around with Jordan’s mel script for a week, I finally decided to animate the geometry by hand. I didn’t have as much control over the particles as much as I would like. However, I am still going to play with the script because I think it has a lot of potential - and procedural is less stressful on the mind/bod
Overall I’m satisfied with the outcome. There was a moment when I thought the final product would look hideous. I think by far, matchmoving took the longest time. I had lots of trouble. So much trouble that I went back to the location and re-shot my footage twice. The matchmoves are still off though. That’s why I could not apply some of the shadows, especially in shot 2.
I learned how to create quick HDR’s. The lighting and reflection information was invaluable.

The little pops you’re getting as the cg approaches the camera can be removed by liberally smoothing the camera curves in the graph editor. The lack of foreground detail (trackable objects close to the camera - that is, in the vicinity of the cg that you’re adding in that area) means your matchmoving software has very little to go on as far as granular camera movement is concerned. A couple trackers 2-3 meters away jittering slightly from noise in the image tell the solver that the camera is bouncing slightly. Even a single pixel movement at that distance will cause the camera to bounce a few centimeters. You’d never notice it in cg at a distance, but put it up close and it’ll be all over the place.
You can, alternatively, clean up those tracks - but I usually find that’s a waste of time. Grab the bull by the horns and clean it up in the graph editor and you’ll have a cleaner looking path in minutes instead of hours.
