4. WHERE MATTE PAINTING IS USED?
Historically, matte painters and film technicians have used various techniques to combine a matte-painted image with live-action footage.
At its best, depending on the skill levels of the artists and technicians, the effect is seamless and creates environments that would otherwise be impossible or
expensive to film.
In the scenes the painting part is static and movements are integrated on it.

5. • Matte painting is one of the oldest techniques in the visual effects industry and one
of the most widely applied techniques as well. The concept of matte painting is
simple: “Use one or few paintings to replace a background.”
• Although the concept is so simple, but the technique of matte painting is quite
skillful and artistically demanding because the paintings used to replace background
have to be realistic enough and support the film style so the audiences can think it’s
a real background.
