Rethinking Compositing

Drawing from extensive experience across projects like Civil War and the Fantastic Beasts franchise, Comp Supervisor Chris Zeh explains how by deconstructing, rethinking and rebuilding the comp process artists can streamline their approach for a more headache-free approach to their craft.

Rather than rely on proprietary tech or software, this talk promises practical advice and tips that artists can apply themselves - all drawn from on-set experience across major projects.
