Throwback: Filming a Matte Painting
Added 2019-08-16 12:24:16 +0000 UTCHere's a throwback to one of the very first things shot for Space Cop back in 2013. Jim and Colin came down and Jim painted a wonderful matte painting of future Milwaukee. We rigged up the camera set up on a ladder and added some model trees to the foreground to give the shot some depth, as well as ran a smoke machine to give a tiny bit of fog to the shot. Later in post, Colin added ripples to the water and flying cars in the background. A combination of practical and digital effects.

2019-08-18 18:10:21 +0000 UTCIs it a digital painting that was printed or is Jim the sort of guy who paints real paintings? Guessing it is digital.

2019-08-17 12:42:18 +0000 UTCExcellent. More backstage stuff please, even if it's just photos. It's fascinating to see "how the sausage is made" as Jack would say.
2019-08-16 17:36:22 +0000 UTCJim and Colin are treasures. How did you guys originally get connected with them?

2019-08-16 13:57:37 +0000 UTCI just moved to MKE a few weeks ago, and I live extemely close to the Veterans Park lagoon, so this image is especially awesome and amusing for me now. And I see that Walker's Point got some sweet Jetsons bubble-on-a-pole-loft condos!

2019-08-16 12:33:26 +0000 UTCI love how Jim is simply wearing flip flops, next to his matte painting. Kinda like "Yeah, it's Tuesday morning, did an amazing matte painting.... I'm hungry, what's for lunch?"
