This is a fan project I made a few month ago, I was always interested in video projects where real life intertwines with the imaginary world. This idea came up when I learned blender could also do motion tracking and can control the camera that matches with the 3D space, so I had to do it!
Being able to work on a single software for doing both really reduced the friction on working on it, since I was a newcomer for both animation and video editing.
Early video tracking testing with the basic models
Animation test with grease pencil
Example animation without the background video
Using planes with Holdout Masks to simulate occlusion from real foreground elements.
P.S Looking back the files, I realize I need to have a good file naming system. Its impossible to find which shot is which file after not seeing them for a while
