MATTE PAINTING

A matte painting is a painted representation of a landscape, set, or distant location that allows
filmmakers to create the illusion of an environment that would otherwise be too expensive or
impossible to build or visit. Historically, matte painters and film technicians have used various
techniques to combine a matte-painted image with live-action footage. At its best, depending on the
skill levels of the artists and technicians, the effect is "seamless" and creates environments that would
otherwise be impossible to film
