COMPETITION CARS' REFLECTION | BEFORE & AFTER

Added the reflections of the competition cars in the hero cars head lamps.  Created the Distorting effect of the reflections as the camera cranes up.  Since clients were a bit more concerned (and rightfully so) about the audience being able to quickly pick up the story context and wanted to make sure that they do see the reflections of the competition in the head lamps in the shot (which is actually pretty short once dropped into the cut), I had to cheat, move away from photorealism, and find that balance so the final shot serves the story but doesn't look too fake at the same time.
