NYC Night Matte Painting Tutorial Files – Photoshop + Nuke Setup
This matte painting project includes a fully layered Photoshop file and a complete Nuke projection setup of a cinematic New York City night environment, designed as a practical workflow reference for aspiring and junior VFX artists. The asset provides a real-world example of how professional matte paintings are structured, composited, and projected for production use, allowing you to study layering techniques, lighting integration, and projection workflows in a hands-on way.
