Description
Hi there!Yet another "against-the-light" matte painting.
I want to show off a post apocalyptic destroyed cityscape, maybe after a war.
It's done with Photoshop CS and After Effects.
I kept the buildings in several layers and added fog in between.
Finally I rendered a camera pullback in After Effects with a previous version of the matte.
Please use "save target as ...", since I haven't optimised the clips for streaming:
PC - WMV-File, WM Version 8 Codec (3.4 MB): [link]
MAC - Quicktime, Sorenson Codec (9.8 MB): [link]
For those who are interested in having a look at the initial sketch: [link]
Thanks hoon, for helping me out with the final color correction
Cheers, Daniel

Was this design used on a book cover? Because I remember buying a short story collection that had the same art image.

Salut, j'suis prΓ©sentement en train d'Γ©crire la ligne principale d'une nouvelle. Γa se passe dans un MontrΓ©al post-apocalypse et je m'inspire de ton image pour le dΓ©cor. Je m'inspire aussi des paroles de la chanson de Smashing Pumpkins "The Beginning is the End is the Beginning"
Si jamais Γ§a sort un tantinet potable je le posterai.
Merci Γ ton talent!

Killer! All you need now is a mushroom cloud or perhaps some fighter planes and this would be a brilliant battle environment.
