As a 3D artist, expanding your skill set is an ongoing journey. I wanted to make the most of my free time by exploring an area I had never tackled before: live-action VFX. To challenge myself, I went outside and recorded a plate using my phone, ensuring I had to work with organic, unpredictable camera movement. 

Additionally, I rented a Theta 360° camera to learn how to capture my own HDRIs and integrate them into my workflow.

In this tutorial, I'll be compositing a slightly modified version of RenderMan’s Stirling model into a parking spot. Let’s dive in and explore this process together!
