Product Description 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. Review Gary Jackemuk has years of experience in image processing, compositing and VFX pipeline design. These dvds are an excellent foundation for all forms of digital imaging and state of the art visual effects. --Rachel Dunn - President, Kinetoscope Entertainment

He makes compositing fun!
I bought this dvd because I wanted to experiment with digital compositing in Shake and After Effects, "although this particular dvd does not instruct you using After effects you can still benefit from Gary's teaching in any node-based compositing application thankfully that means Fusion, Shake, After Effects, nuke, etc. I recommend this dvd to anyone getting involved in compositing in film or video, very informative.
