Fig. 2 Compositing Workflow.
The images were captured from the engine (Euroland 2.0) in order to enhance them using compositing techniques. Since the captures did not had an alpha channel we had to come up with a system that would allow us to generate one from several passes. Using the green screen method I was able to create layered images and manipulate them later in Nuke or After Effects.
Fig. 3 Render-farm Directory workflow.
One machine was not able to capture all the material fast enough and for that reason we built a render farm using computers from across the company. The captures would be uploaded to a server and later I would fetch them to work locally. The system had to be build from scratch.
Fig. 4 Stereoscopic workflow for anaglyphic 3D view.
The game featured stereoscopic view using anaglyphic 3D glasses. In order to achieve this effect we had to replicate the channel displacement from the realtime game in engine. I created a workflow that would allow to output two type of images for every scene: one for normal view and a second one for stereoscopic.
