    Projection Mapping

    Posted by Ben Lewis on March 10, 2017 at 6:49 pm

    Hello,

    I’m not sure if projection mapping is the correct terminology but I basically want to be able to simulate projecting an image onto a building. If I was to shoot background plates of the buildings I would like to map additional footage on top. Could anyone tell me how to achieve this?

    Cheers

    Ben

    You can track the shot using built-in “Camera Tracker” or use “Mocha”, and then try to project image over it.

    However Could you explain more about what you actually want to achieve?

    Thanks & Regards

    Hi Selva,

    Thanks for responding, the look I wish to achieve can be found in the following video. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=mBYjGnFdv8s

    Ray Winstone’s face is projected onto buildings and I would like advice on how to achieve this effect please.

    Cheers!

    Hi Ben, I think you might be looking for “camera mapping”. This Creative Cow tutorial by Andrew Devis should give you the idea:
