Are there any tutorials on this anywhere? sounds pretty smartRender a turn table so I can see the materials. Its the best way to check if they are too shiney or weird in some way. Then render a grey sphere and a chrome sphere. To check your environment and lighting. looks pretty cloudy which means there isnt much key lighting. might look better on a sunny evening.
To make it better I'd work on the materials and lighting. Try grading what you have but the shoulders stand out to me right now.

I have a bit of a problem with the matchmove for the foot/leg scene. The camera has an unusual motion in the first 2 seconds... but looks ok towards the end. I used Autodesk Matchmover to get the camera solve; all the points were green by the end of the solve.
Can anybody out there give me some input on whether or not I should just matchmove this entire scene again? Or is it still salvageable by manually playing around with the camera's animation curves?
Also, I might add that I did not correct the plate for distortion, I sorta relied on Matchmover to calculate that for me. If the distortion really did affect the solve, it wouldn't solve would it?
