Hello there! Welcome to my blog!
Throughout the next few weeks or so, this blog will show my attempts at creating a matte painting! What's a matte painting? Well let's use one of my favorite examples:
Have you seen the latest Star Wars films? Or how about Lord of the Rings? Avatar maybe? Did it ever cross your mind as to how they got those spectacular and mind-blowing backgrounds? Those, my friends, are matte paintings. Originally created on canvas, they are the backgrounds that expand the original film or shot, allowing filmmakers to have those perfect trees, or the best sunset. Matte paintings also involve the work of miniatures, applying them to a much larger image or scene.
These days, matte paintings are most commonly created within the Adobe program Photoshop. And that is the program which I will use to show my skills and expand on them to create my very own matte painting.
Follow along!
