VFX/CGI/3D TRANSFORMATION OF SHORT VIDEO CLIPS
Transformation of old cars, replacement of number plates, updating old mobile phone, replacing wall curtains, and erasing round tax discs from windscreens are required across short video clips. These tasks involve VFX/CGI/3D compositing techniques to achieve seamless, photorealistic results that blend naturally into the original footage. The goal is to blend all elements with artistic and technical precision so the final result looks naturally captured in camera, without any visible signs of manipulation. This project requires frame by frame compositing with expert precision to ensure the final visuals appear natural, smooth, and indistinguishable from the original shots. Technical Requirements: • Work must preserve original picture quality, RGB, grading, motion, pacing, and cinemascope frame size • Output must remain in the same 4K DPX frame format as the original source with identical frame numbering as the originals. • Deliverables must include: o 4K DPX frames with correct frame numbering same as original source o 24fps 4K UHD video clip o 24fps 2K HD video clip o 24fps MP4 clip • VFX must be error free: no jerks, juddering, floating, or flickering. Playback must be seamless on large cinema screens. Quality Expectations: • Seamless integration with original footage from multiple camera angles. • Strict adherence to frame numbering for compatibility with master folders. • Preservation of original RGB values, frame speed (24fps), and cinemascope dimensions. • Final outputs must be professional, cinematic, and ready for big screen projection. The frame numbers on your final work must be the same as they appear on the original frames in our folders, otherwise we will not be able to mix your work in the sequence. This is a straightforward project for confident VFX/CGI/3D professionals. Successful completion will lead to long term regular work. Consultation and support will be available throughout the project. Freelancers may submit MP4 previews for approval before delivering full folders. Full instructions with marked reference images are provided in the attached PDF which you need to follow to complete this project. If you have any questions, please send me a message. Only freelancers who are able to demonstrate their skills on our provided clips should submit proposals. We will require a sample of your work on a short MP4 footage before awarding the project.
