This course provides an introduction to compositing video using traditional vfx and realtime pipelines with the Unreal Engine. Students will develop cinematics that composite video into a 3D virtual world. Using matchmotion tracking students will integrate the camera movement of footage shot on greenscreen with CGI. Students will develop their concepts using previz and virtual production techniques to produce a short film short on an LED wall.
