VFX1070

In this introductory course, students will learn concepts and techniques related to Compositing.

Starting off with fundamental compositing principles leading to digital compositing tools. Understanding what to look for and how to tackle problems where compositing is needed.

By the end of the course, students will have an understanding of what compositing can mean for production of a vfx shot. They will be able to take CG renders in pass form. Combine them and correct for hand-off to the next phase of production.

On successful completion of the course, students should be able to:

Skills:

  • Demonstrate to manipulate render passes, combine them and spot fix for delivery to the next phase of production.
  • Navigate through the fundamental settings of a professional compositing program.
  • Load image sequences and render out composited sequences
  • Use fundamental image manipulation possesses.
  • Combine CG render passes for deliveryin a vfx pipeline.
  • Manipulate images within value boundaries.
  • Spot fix frames with roto-masks.

Knowledge:

  • Understand the fundamental layer structure and manipulation of image sequences to create integrated composite sequences.
  • Understand vocabulary and basic utilities.
