Compositing and Scene Finishing I

The Compositing and Scene Finishing I Course broadens the base of students’ knowledge by offering insight into the process of combining computer-generated imagery (CGI) with video and film elements. By learning what happens when rendered imagery is integrated into the postproduction process, students come to better understand the core principles of proper compositing and finishing practices. Students are introduced to the fundamentals of Node-based compositing systems and 3D Camera tracking tools accompanied with common rendering methods utilized in current postproduction pipelines.
