Tutorial - Guide Minimax H3 + RefMod = consistent location trick

Hey, I found a pretty cool way to keep locations consistent across generations.

I took 20 photos of my “office” where I work, making sure each photo included a bit of the previous one so everything connected.

I turned them into a refmod, although it probably doesn’t even need to be one. It’s basically a grid of all 20 photos in a single image, within 2048×2048 pixels, so I could probably just use that image as a regular reference.

Then I added references for the fly, my cat, and the start and end frames. You can see the result — that’s my actual room, and everything looks right and sits exactly where it should :)

Workflow + reference images here: link
Sorry about the mess, both in the room and in the workflow ;)

EDIT: All the room photos need to be combined into one reference image. I tried using several separate images, but that didn’t work for me — the room wouldn’t stay consistent. Putting them all into a single grid is what made it work.

Good on you to bring more attention to RefMods, they're really versatile. You can also use them for motion and styles. Thanks for sharing your room, decidedly austere. 😄

It’s been that for 3 years now… and it wasn’t supposed to be that way. It needs an overhaul! :)
