This intro to visual effects course will not only teach you how to get great results through compositing, it will also teach all of the technical details that need to be considered with compositing. This includes image levels, image colors, color management, handling proper alpha values, green screen keying, and much more.

This course will teach you how to use Corona Plugin, which gives you a smooth, realistic light that is easy to adjust. Not complicated and can be customized in the program.

FLIP Fluids is a powerful liquid simulation addon that gives you the ability to create high quality cinematic fluid effects all within Blender!

CGAxis PBR Textures Volume 17 – Brick Walls is a collection of 100 PBR textures of brick walls. In this package you will get both clean and new walls but also old and damaged ones. This collection is prepared for the specular workflow and each texture consists of five maps: Diffuse, Reflection, Height (Displacement), Glossiness and Normal. All images are fully tileable (seamless) in 8192×8192 in JPG file format.

This course covers how to create custom mapping and transformation nodes in Cycles, including the math and theory behind vectors. Blender's default mapping node allows simple transformations of texture coordinates, but there are a lot of cases where more flexible inputs and non-uniform transformations would be incredibly valuable.

While photorealistic rendering is the more popular focus for computer graphics, cartoon rendering is still in high demand. In this course, you'll learn how to create 2D looking renders using Freestyle. We'll cover all of Freestyle's settings as well as look at three practical examples of how to use them to achieve great results.

In this course, we'll rig a set of locomotive wheels in Blender using constraints. We'll focus on converting rotational motion to reciprocal (back and forth) motion. This type of rigging can be very difficult, and is most often achieved with the use of Armatures and Inverse Kinematics (IK). In this course, however, we'll look at a way to do it using the Locked Track, Copy Location, and Shrinkwrap constraints.

Compositing elements into live action footage is one of the most common visual effects tasks. Those elements could be patches, fixes, matte paintings, other pieces of footage, CG objects, or even plane tracks. Regardless of what it is, it's going to have to match the live action footage in every way possible, and one of the most important is making sure it is motion blurred correctly.

In Blender, stacking blocks is a serious art form! A voxel is just like a pixel but with three dimensions instead of two, and building scenes with them results in a really fun style that has been made popular by things like Lego and Minecraft. This course will show you how to make the most of that style by speeding up your snapping, converting meshes with the remesh modifier, and adding extra pixel detail through the use of a shader.
