Definition of Matte Painting
Matte Painting history
Matte painting used to be made by paints or pastels on glass sheets at the time of the live-action footage, in the 1980's new technology came around to change the matte painting game, enabling matte painters to enter to the digital realm. and with these technology's graphics were improved allowing the creation of landscapes to made easily with a lot less hassle and also having the new advantages of editing the pieces so with all this the work became a lot more better.
even though these new technology's were around, classic style painting were still being produced throughout the 90's with films like die hard 2 using the traditional style,
however this came to a close in eventually by the end of the decade.
now with the paint and pastels gone artists use a range of resources to create the images like 3-D models, photo references and drawing tablets as big assets.
Use of Matte Painting in HellBoy
with in the film Hell Boy there are various scenes that use matte painting however i found one scene extraordinary, there is a scene were someone is crossing a great range of snow blizzard mountains which looks incredible however the actual orginal footage of the man is really close up compared to the finished piece, the raw footage consisted of a man in the costume literally just walking up a white plank within a normal room then the clip was crop to have the man appropriately edited to size then the matte painting came in too feature the mountains in the background and the snowy wasteland in the foreground.
I think the use matte painting here is very well done and looks amazing especially considering the original footage, so im heavily impressed by this matte painting.
