The Day 9 node is the Background Plate LOP



Here is a scene file [media.sidefx.com] with some examples from the video.

Note: This node works with Karma CPU - it does not work with Karma XPU.

Note: If you want a sample Compositing network for this node choose Quick Setups > Sample Compositing Network on the Background Plate node.

Day 9: 16 samples on Karma XPU. Not sure if that's why there is noise and not sure if my AOV's are actually making a shadow on the backplate?

Hello if my backplate exists out of multiple objects and instances it seems to self shadow witch is not a wanted result. ( only the tiny sphere is not a backplate )
although its not really self shadow, I hope you get what I mean.

(lightlinker also did not help)

1st one is shadowmatte.

last one is c.



ps. please add both the possibility to add a roughness map as wel as the possibility to easily add the roughness attribute(or any other one) to our render vars.

Day 9



Note: sidefx.com won't let me link to the source of the composited video, but I got it on Pexels, from Stefano Rinaldo. Credit for the drone video goes to him, it's just rendering the text and the compositing work that I did.

This was my favorite Mardini day this year. Maybe because it was a fun topic for a weekend project, and maybe because I went outside to film stuff, even though in I ended up using pexels. I love the background plate lop.
