Art of Compositing

Overview

This course builds on the principles learned in Introduction to Compositing. Through weekly lectures, in-class practice, and out of class assignments, students learn compositing techniques using The Foundry’s Nuke. Emphasis is placed on the user interface, node-based workflows, color correction, rotoscoping, color management, painting, tracking, color keying, matting, and 3D workflows. Classes include compositing demonstrations, discussions of node-based methods, project critiques, and industry tips. Students will explore various styles of compositing utilizing Nuke, working towards a final project for presentation.
