In this tutorial we will be stepping through the process of compositing this CG shot over a live footage background plate. We'll show you how to import the 3D multi-pass renders and how to correctly layer them in the comp. We'll also go through the process of color correcting the elements to better marry them into the background plate. Then we'll step through the process of creating a glass particle system using Particular. We will also add motion blur to various elements using the ReelSmart motion blur plug-in. Once you have completed this tutorial, you will have a much greater understanding of the types of challenges faced throughout a production compositing process, and how to tackle such challenges to get high quality output.
