he also showed me the way of making animated flying pigeon from a clip of flying pigeon, the same way as what jeff showed in class.
there're a few techniques in "nuit blanche" which could be used in my project.
-matte paining. 2d painted bg and 3d mid-ground and foreground;
-green screen people on treadmill to be composited into street scene;
to make the walking polar bear, i can try to find a stock footage then use the same technique of making a flying pigeon.
camera works:
pier 39 shot: tilt down the camera from a view of city in snow without polar bears and then reveal the polar bears; and not do the second shot of polar bear. when tilting down the camera, put the camera on a plate and tilt the plate. so when tilting the camera, the pivot point will be on the lens.
gondola shot: if i have the walking polar bear, then keep the camera the way it is. but if not, moving the camera from left to right.
comment:
the size of the bart train is wrong compared to the golden gate bridge
