Art and Technique of Matchmoving
«
"The definitive text on an under-appreciated, but yet fundamental, profession within the Visual Effects Industry.
This book makes clear and approachable what can be a very technical, sometime arcane, subject that sits on the edge between Movie Production and Movie Post-Production.
It's a must-read for anyone starting out in Visual Effects, but also contains an abundance of information that even seasoned VFX Professionals won't already know, but should." - Jake Morrison, Visual Effects Supervisor, Tooth Fairy, Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, Iron Man 2
"The Art and Technique of Matchmoving is a must-have reference for anyone beginning their VFX career -- it's not only a textbook on Matchmove, but a practical guide to everything that goes on in the strange and wonderful world of Visual Effects. Erica brings humor and experience to demystify Matchmove and all that springs from it. I've been in this business for 14 years and I learned a thing or two!" - Joanie Karnowski, Senior VFX Artist, G-Force, Beowulf, Spider-Man 3
"For anyone who wants to learn the art of matchmove, this book is a must read. Erica not only gives an overall look at what matchmove is and how it works, she makes it easy to understand. Her book is a new addition to my toolkit." Michael "Mac" Condro, Matchmover, Stuart Little 2, The Haunted Mansion, Spider-Man 2

Matchmoving has become a standard visual effects procedure for almost every situation where live action materials and CG get combined. It allows virtual and real scenes that have been composited together to seamlessly appear as though they are from the same perspective. Les mer
