Quality people in renderings.

[heni30]

Does anyone know of anyone who does quality post people in Photoshop? It's so time consuming to gather a collection of quality figures and then place correctly in terms of demographics, activity, correct lighting and artistic composition.

 

Whoever is doing them in the large firms could make a killing by starting a studio that does that exclusively. I know I'd be a customer.

Hi George

I think we have a right people for the job (in both meanings :-)

Our staff has 20 years of experience in populating renderings. And we also have a lot of material to choose from.

If you would like to give us a try please write vishopper@vishopper.com

Greetings

Martin from VIShopper team

Dang, those are good. I'm guessing SteelBlue on the studio, please attribute.

 

Part of what makes those figures as good as they are is likely very careful post work to make the lighting and saturation match the scene. Also, obviously, they fit perfectly within the perspective, even in the seating areas which are the HARDEST.

 

It would be great to have a vast portfolio of ready figures to work with. You'd think that someone like me that's been rendering for decades would, but I don't either. What's frustrating for me is that I usually start by drawing figures over a layout to work out who goes where and in what pose. So I get that perfected, then have to go find a photo figure that matches. And they never do.

 

Figures are an often-overlooked time-consuming step, especially as they are usually a late-stage step when time is tight. But they are critical, as evidenced by the two renderings posted. When done right, they 'make' a piece.

I'm guessing the cost to do those people exceeds most arch viz budgets for your run of the mill jobs. I would bet the farm that a lot of those people are custom green screen for that specific purpose.

Yep. CGA member Tamas Medve worked on the renderings for MIR - yes, models were used.

The images are from Tamas Medve, his CG Society Bio says he works or worked at MIR.

It's the Monday Lunch image series and there is a shot from the custom photo shoot for the people.

Once you get the people you want....

 

For compositing people it all comes down to matching: Tone, Saturation, Lighting, Perspective, and Image Quality to a degree.

 

I like this Method for Tone

 

 

and this for Saturation:

 

 

Both are by the same person and both take a more Objective route which I think is necessary.

This is killing me, fantastic cutout quality. These guys from MIR are beast. But I think is kind of impossible as @Scott said, as it's costly and takes time and energy.

Not if the people who work in the studio look like models themselves and you have a studio which can turn into a setup

Most of the images by MIR have there team posing in some way or the other. Ofcourse there are commissioned images done, but if you have the resources, use it!
