This is to get another developer to make plug-ins for Carrara.
Specifically, Camera matching. I'll provide an example to help
illustrate the benefits of this plug-in if you don't know what camera
matching means.
Example:
You have a client that has paid for an expensive photo-shoot (from a
photographer) of his or her product. Picture taken and the bill paid.
However, the client noticed that only part of the product is there.
That client freaks out. He or she contact an artist (in this case,
the 3D illustrator) to see if anything can be done to include the
other half of the product in the picture.
In 3D, you can make a replica of the product. You can texture of to
look exactly the same. You can adjust lighting to match (of if you
are lucky, you get an HDRI of that scene). Only problem for the
illustrator is that the vitural camera needs to be in the exact
position to the 3D objects and with the same focal length as the real
camera was to its subject. This part is usually alot of trial and
error for the illustrator.
Camera matching helps to automate this process. By suppling info as
to what objects are the same size and what size are those objects (in
real life, as if using a ruler against the object), the program will
place the camera in the scene with the correct focal settings to match
up with a backdrop image of the scene... thusing saving alot of time
of the illustrator and increasing the illustrator's productivity.
I hope that helps,
AWBenson
