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

hello! I've got a question.
Do you mind if I use this work in my web layout? I think about "Environment__POST_APOCALYPSE". My project is non commercial one. but I'll give you credit and link to your website. Of course if you don't agree I won't use your piece.
Thank you in advance!

P.S.-I was wondering...Do you think I could make a short 'story description' for this? I'm pretty good at that sorta stuff,and I'd love making a tale around this environment...But i you don't,that's cool ^_^

I think the best part of this image is the internal lighting. I mean, the city has been destroyed, but somewhere there's still a powerstation operational and some power lines have remained undamaged.. so here are there, rooms and buildings are lit up - even if the people inside them are dead or have fled.
