GameOfThrones 7 - Descending from Dragonstone

Like in every Season there are a couple of shots that require a different approach because the 3D does not fully cover/ is not build for this angle or there is just not enough time to build it in 3D. This is when we finish up with a mattepainting. We try to use as much 3D as we can, because a good matchmove and good 3D lighting base is a perfect base for the mattepainting.

This is a 2,5 D projection with cards in nuke. I comped the shot as well. Believe it or not, but in the end the little birds took longer than anything else in the shot!

Finally our Making of is online, showing lots of my Environment shots were I was mainly responsible for the Mattepaintings of Dragonstone
