Title: In front of my house.
Post by: Nils Piirma on March 15, 2015, 12:14:03 PM
After some thought of getting fresh air, I also thought of opening up my camera app and taking a shot of creating a backplane, the quality itself isn't that great for my camera, but I decided to go at it anyways. Also made a photosphere to match the backplane.

After posting it on facebook and seeing that most people are confused of this being the 1st Lamborghini Huracan in our country I told them to relax and say that it was a 3D render.

IMO it looks pretty good, but there are always people out there that find something to NAG about :D

The reason I left the color of the car silver, was just pure choice of random.

Added some grain to match the quality of the backplate.

Your work is nice, but there is something not convincing me on the reality of this render.
I think lighting has something wrong,...

Adding the grain really helped match the car to the back plate, even when viewing the image full size.

you know i'm not so good at rendering but i think it might be to dark around the car? slater also said he thinks something is wrong with the lightning, so i wanted to try light it up a tiny bit with photoshop. or are my eyes deceiving me?? in respect for your work, i apologise if it offends.

Naah don't worry. I'm not really good at editing, but atleast I tried :D Quite a lot of people were confused about this car being in my country and even some people tried asking Lamborghini executives in Tallinn that is this true :D

Can you use a Google Camera photosphere as a kind of HDRi, or did you mean or do something else?

I used the Google Camera App for my android phone and did a photosphere there.

I've used an app called "Photosynth" before with my iPhone/iPad. Did a search and it's still available for free.

From what I remember, it seemed to work fairly well for a freebie. You can take the panoramic image and modify it to be a quick and dirty HDR to use with KeyShot.

How exactly do you make that work? You take a backplate, a photosphere, and then what? Do you need to add appropriate lights to the photosphere via the Keyshot HDRI editor, as you will probably miss the light information a normal HDRI contains, or do you have some way of getting the appropriate lights to show up?

Very cool technique. I had been playing with the photosphere recently, but totally neglected to notice this use for it. It seems so obvious now.

I did the photo first, actually did around 10 for more room to play around with. then I edited the picture in lightroom and photoshop to look kinda cool. while I was taking the 10 shots, after that I did also a photosphere, i loaded that in to keyshot HDRI editor and redid the light sources with BLEND functionality with PINS. Matched the custom made HDRI with the angles to the backplate I had previosley done and voila. Altho the GRAIN while taking a picture with a phone is pretty hard to get rid of, especially considering the fact that it's not a DSLR, will be have to added to the image in post production.

Thanks for filling in the details, I expected it be something like that. Very nice, I will have to experiment with such a method sometimes soon :)

Great technique to add the light via the blending mode. Thanks.
