Compositing and Scene Finishing

The Compositing and Scene Finishing Course will broaden 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 post-production process, students better understand the core principles of proper compositing and finishing practices. Students will be introduced to the fundamentals of Node-based compositing systems, 3D camera tracking tools accompanied with common rendering methods utilized in current post-production pipelines.
