Heart Stopper

Heart Stopper

During my involvement in the Netflix series "Heart Stopper," I completed several sky replacements. This task involved using delicate luma keys to precisely extract and replace the skies while preserving fine details, such as hair strands, to maintain the realism and integrity of the shots.

Each sky replacement required meticulous attention to detail to seamlessly integrate the new sky elements. My goal was to create a sunny and bright atmosphere, enhancing the mood and visual appeal of the scenes.

I took these shots from initial keying to final compositing. This included refining edge details to ensure smooth blending between the actors and the new sky backgrounds. Achieving accurate camera tracks was essential to maintaining the illusion of a consistent environment and perspective.
