In this introductory DVD, seasoned compositor Gary Jackemuk teaches
the fundamentals of compositing with an emphasis on production.
Gary starts by creating a sample composite, discussing the essentials
of digital formats and color space. From there, Gary illustrates the
process of using mattes generated by both 3D applications and live-
action plates. He discusses the details of combining and layering by
looking at the mathematics behind the most frequently used operators.
The DVD covers color operations, filters, transformations and various
methods of generating mattes. By walking you through a few composites,
Gary shows you how these techniques are applied to actual visual effects
production tasks.
Although Gary uses Shake to demonstrate these compositing fundamentals,
the techniques are applicable to any compositing package, including
Digital Fusion, Flame/Inferno and After Effects.
