Final Product What You'll Be Creating

This entry is part 2 of 2 in the series Pipboy Touch Screen

Pipboy Touch Screen

In Day 2 we’ll finish up the building of the pipboy screens. Then we’ll talk about how were going to transition between the first and second screen. We’ll animate and keyframe the layers. DON’T FORGET MOTION BLUR!!! Once we finally build the 2 screens and animate them, we’ll add some final detail to the screens like noise and grunge. And finally we’ll motion track the screen onto our live action footage. Thanks for watching guys.

    Very awesome, thanks.
    I am amazed about how well the two point tracking worked for the rectangular composition. Very cool effect. I’ll try to use it one day =D

    Some tip:
    Rotoscoping + tracking is always tedious, so it is no surprise that you quickly went over it. But therer is a much faster way to do it:

    If you use the Mocha tracker (that is also included in CS4/CS5) + MochaImport, tracking becomes much easier. Using Mocha, you can also speed up the rotoscoping of the finger using the technique shown in this tutorial:

      I have been looking for a compilation of these tutorials for the longest time. Thank you so much for posting them! Bookmarked!

  • kuunami

    Not only was this a great tutorial that taught me a lot, it made me go and buy fallout 3 for the PS3. LOL.

  • Filip

    your text is weird becouse u must change set baseline shift to 0 in characters tab
    just below verticaly scale

  • Serge S

    Really great tutorial. The final product looks amazing!

    One thing though, you could’ve saved so much time when doing the increments if you used the ruler. Just press R and the ruler comes and you can bring down lines to help you out. Then I just did the calculations and set the lines where I needed them to be and everything just snapped into place.
