In this Blender tutorial we'll look at how we can composite a CG object around a real object in our live-action footage. After tackling some fundamental render & compositing principles, we'll explore the world of z-depth compositing. With these tools in hand, you'll be knocking down creative barriers left and right!
Chapters:
00:30 - Initial Scene Setup
01:47 - Into to object, collection, view layer visibility
02:22 - Scene setup to render necessary elements
08:43 - Compositing time!
12:18 - Luma mattes and 2D masking leaves
14:37 - Z-depth compositing leaves
