One more sample https://youtu.be/D5kg7LlRd0I this one has a BattleTech mech in the parking lot outside my window. Not too much going on in this one because it was shot late on sunday so not much in the background was moving. Also still working on video quality issues…the VIVE tracker also seemed to be having some trouble with this placement of the camera. May need to relocate it to get a better view of the lighthouses. Had a choice of filming this through dirty glass or threw a screen, not ideal.
Though the point of it is to experiment, the object of this is that the camera (up in my room on the third floor) and the mech and gadget character (by the mech’s feet) are located a good 10 meters below the camera and around 20 out. So if you have an accurate camera position and measurements you can place very large CG objects quite a ways away from the camera and it still looks correct.
The zero point of the level is a bit behind where the camera is, and there is an invisible “floor” down 10 meters where the parking lot is. With this setup you could drive a CG car around the parking lot if you wanted.
