I’ve been tasked with making a house appear to be on fire however the dp never lit it with the light that a fire would throw off. I can make an adjustment layer and use curves or levels but the image is so dark that the grain just jumps out right away and this hosue is suppose to be really burning.
I have the plate matchmoved with proxy geometry for the house and thought it might work to place some lights from the “fire” on the geometry then use Add to comp with the plate. But before I go down this road I’d like some advice.
I’m working with Maya 2012 and AE CS5.
Attached is a jpeg from the plate.
