Free Filmback Matcher Creates Maya Cameras With Real Settings

This Free Script for Maya Can Create Cameras that Match Live Action Camera Settings.

If you’ve ever done 3D match moves or need to place 3D elements into a shot, you know how important it is to get the camera settings correct in your scene. Instead of transposing all the information that you need, you can alternatively use a new script from Pipeline Tools creator Robert Skiena, Filmback Matcher.

Filmback Matcher can create a camera that matches a live action one. It uses the free online resource the vfxcamdb.com as a database of its camera resources. Simply choose the camera you want from the drop-down menu, choose which sensor area best matches the real-life camera, then choose an image resolution and name the camera. The script will create a camera in your scene with all the settings using the requested filmback.
