Learn how to create awesome visual effects in blender, this course will teach you everything you need to know about camera tracking/matchmoving, adding realistic fire effects into footage using procedural node based volumetric materials.

Description

Integrate cgi into footage using advanced node base compositing techniques

This course will teach you how to integrate cgi into your footage using advanced compositing techniques in blenders compositor this course also doesn't require you to use any other software everything is done in blender 2.8. Node based compositing will cover everything including how to create realistic lens dust/ dirt elements and add them on top of our footage. This course will also cover color grading and better matching our footage to our cgi.

Learn about color management and how to use it to your advantage

This course will teach you how to keep everything in scene linear and will also teach you about color management, and how to use blender to it's full potential.

Use node based procedural materials to generate fire quickly

In the course a procedural fire material is provided and students will learn how to use this material to create procedural advanced fire effects and add them to our footage, this material is fully procedural and requires no baking time. Students can use all materials provided in the course in their own projects.

Everything in the course is organized in sections using a step by step approach All project files and materials are provided in the course

This course is packed with information with nearly 6 hours of content and will give students very good understanding of how to integrate cgi into footage.

• blender users who are interested in creating vfx
• students who want to learn how to add cgi into real life footage
