View source for Digital matte artist

A '''digital matte artist''', or '''digital matte painter''' ('''DMP'''), is today's modern form of a traditional [[Matte painting|matte painter]] in the entertainment industry. He or she digitally paints photo-realistic interior and exterior environments that could not have been otherwise created or visited.

The term 'digital' is used to distinguish a DMP from a traditional matte painter, although this is unnecessary, as the nature of a matte painter's work remains the same, regardless of the tools and techniques used.
