Requirements: .ePUB reader, 68.7 MB
Overview: Written by senior compositor, technical director, and master trainer Steve Wright, this book condenses years of production experience into an easy-to-read and highly informative guide suitable for both working and aspiring visual effects artists. This updated edition of Digital Compositing for Film and Video addresses the problems and difficult choices that professional compositors face daily with an elegant blend of theory, practical production techniques, and workflows. It is written to be software-agnostic, so it applies to any brand of software. It features many step-by-step workflows, powerful new keying techniques, and updates on the latest tech in the visual effects industry with all-new content on Artificial Intelligence (AI) for visual effects (VFX), Universal Scene Description (USD), Virtual Production, and Cryptomattes. While very suitable for beginners, this is not an introductory book. It assumes that the reader already knows how to operate the compositing software, what a pixel is, and what RGB means. It is intended for the digital artist sitting in front of a workstation with a picture on the monitor wondering why there are edge artifacts in a bluescreen composite and how to get rid of them. The attempt was to present the topics with sufficient background detail that they will be of value to the beginner while including advanced concepts and production techniques that will also be of value to the more experienced compositor. This is also a software agnostic book. It carefully avoids the specifics of any particular brand of software and uses procedures and techniques such as rotoscoping, tracking, and color correcting that are common to all software products. You will be able to perform all of the procedures in this book regardless of the brand of software that you are using, including Adobe Photoshop.
