Compositing for Production
Complete Compositing
Over 85% of our students find job places within 12 months of graduating from our Compositing Course and you can too.
Our compositing course shows you how to fuse CG elements, matte painting, motion tracking and live action to create visual effects scenes good enough to fool your audience. You’ll work with the same effects packages and production pipelines that the studios use, learning the very latest techniques first-hand. The compositing course ends with a showreel project designed to showcase your skills and talent to prove you’re ready for your first job as a junior compositor.
