With the ever increasing range of computer graphics tools available to contemporary filmmakers it seems that it is now possible to present to an audience any image or vision, regardless of how far-fetched or obscure it might be. This report charts an investigation into matte painting in the film industry today. In particular how traditional painterly techniques are used to achieve realistic mattes. The objective is to personally use these techniques and create an original matte painting that visualises a futuristic cityscape of my own design. The final piece will then be analysed to see which aspects compare to an industrial matte painting and which elements fall short of achieving such a high quality.
