Tiled Backplate

Tiling is the process of stitching a number of still images together to produce one large canvas. With care, a 180 or even 360 degree panoramic background can be constructed. Layers to create fake parallax are relatively straight forward to extract.

Still images for backplates can be layered or tiled together to create much larger frames which can then be moved in cgi. This allows for extremely dynamic camera moves which would be impossible in the “real world” and is great if you want to achieve an “out of this world” style for your sequence. For example rotating the camera around two fighting creatures.
