Description
On seasons 19 and 20 of Camping Paradis, broadcast in prime time on TF1, VFX work fit into continuity and absolute discretion logic. The objective: preserve scene spontaneity while eliminating all technical shooting traces.
Paired with a second VFX artist, I handled significant shot volume under After Effects with Mocha Pro. My work mainly consisted of cleaning images in varied situations: visible logo and brand removal, RF mic erasure, team reflection removal from windows and car bodies, and on-screen inconsistent element corrections.
I also performed phone interface integration in movement, added certain visual details (steam on a dish, enhanced diamond sparkle), and ensured color retouching to harmonize scenes.

Challenges & Solutions
Invisible Interventions in Moving Environment
Numerous elements to remove appeared in dynamic shots with light variations, complex reflections, or foreground object passes.
Using Mocha Pro combined with precise rotoscoping work allowed me to isolate and reconstruct affected areas while preserving shot natural fluidity.
Reflections & Complex Surfaces
Windows and car bodies regularly revealed crew or shooting equipment presence.
Frame-by-frame reconstruction and recomposition work removed these reflections without altering volumes or light consistency.
Subtle Narrative Additions
Certain props or situations required credible visual reinforcement without demonstrative effect.
Adding realistic details (smoke, shine, animated interfaces), integrated with precise tracking, to enrich scenes while remaining imperceptible to viewers.
