This doesn't even make sense dude hahaha, without camera's none of the images would exist (other than computer generated..)

I was simply asking if people have heard of it before, I hadn't. I don't have much interest as I said I more-so just enjoy the process of rigging - it making some side buck is just a bonus !

I thought your first line was a joke, so I made one too. Guess you missed it...

:p

I'm trying something new, what do you guys think about the leaves? I'm not completely sold on them. How could I do it better?

Holy sh*t dude.. I love the leaves. Amazing. How did you do it? Was it your own image used for the leaves?

^Amazing shot and execution on the leaves. I think the leaves on the driver's side front (specifically the one near the headlight) are throwing it off. I don't think there are trees close enough to sell those. I would say put more leaves on the road in front of the car and also being thrown up behind to really sell it. Really cool idea!!

For the common viewer they are fine, but for anyone that looks a bit deeper they don't add to the shot. I mean, how many leaves are on the street beside the car? And why are the leaves in front of the car instead of behind? Try to make the photo make more sense. An easy way to do this is to just do a little more work, bring a friend with an electric leaf blower, toss some leaves around, and blow them away from the direction you're heading during the shot.

I actually meant to throw leaves around it, but it was threatening to rain. I accidentally took my camera off the boom before I remembered that I was wanting to do that.

I was thinking that for there to be leaves behind the car, there should be some in front of it too. Ill keep playing with it.

they actually weren't since this was just a practice image. I made sure they were open to use via CC, though.

Feature isn't ready yet so I have time to tweak if needed.

Although I like many things about this shot, you're breaking a major rule of rigging that probably can't be fixed. Tell me what you think it is.

Guessing the lack of where the car is heading too.

Bingo! There should always be open space in front of the car, without exception, it's one of the few "rules" of rigging. Really nice shot though :).
