Skyboxes - The Three P's of Production - Ordinary Animator

Skyboxes enhance realism, set the mood, or provide context without needing complex 3D geometry.

360 Images: Seamless, panoramic images wrapped around the scene to create immersive backgrounds, such as skies or landscapes.
Flat Planes: Single textured planes positioned behind the scene for simpler backdrops, like walls or static images.
Depth Maps: Grey-scale images where lighter values represent closer areas and darker values represent farther areas, used to convey depth.

One example site for using Generative AI to create background images is Skybox AI from Blockade Labs, a paid service.
