Learn professional techniques and workflow on Rotoscoping and Compositing
This course is designed for the After Effects artist who wants to get into visual effects. Regardless of your background as long as you have basic knowledge in After Effects and a desire to learn about visual effects, this course is for you.
One of the first techniques I learned as a visual effects artist was rotoscoping. At first I thought it was incredibly tedious and difficult until I got into a good zone with it. I think every digital compositor should know how to rotoscope and that it's the gateway into the visual effects world. Also, it useful professional technique to know. There's a good and bad way to rotoscope, and I'll be discussing some important workflow setups so that you set yourself up for success. Also, I'll be talking about some important animation concepts that will be helpful for you to learn in order to master rotoscoping.
The other portion of this course will be creating graphics using shape layers and compositing them over the live action footage. I'll be walking you through our class example project, and I will also be providing my project files for you to learn as you go.
I want you to succeed. If you have any questions reach out to me in the Q&A section of the course. I’d be happy to answer any questions you may have.

New to this technique. I am also relatively new to After Effects. Great lesson in attention to detail and accuracy.
As I am new to Rotoscoping I am keen to see where this is going and why it is done. very interesting to see how the key frames are built up to give the finished mask. I would like to see the key board and mouse buttons indicated some where on screen as you work. I find it hard to keep track of that information by listening to your commentary alone. This may be due to my inexperience of using After Effects and that I am on a PC not using Mac as you are. Great privilege to be able to look over your shoulder as it were to experience how you work and your thought process. Many thanks. Gordon
