In this course, Chris and Trish Meyer share two of the core secrets required to become an efficient After Effects user: understanding the render order (the internal order of operations After Effects uses when calculating masks, effects, transformation, track mattes, and layer styles) and the use of multiple compositions where a composition may be nested into one or more other comps.

This course follows up on the Vue201 course, and offers intermediate and advanced Vue artists an opportunity to deepen their knowledge of the program and to acquire new practical techniques for production work. In the first half of the course we will concentrate on specific areas and tools in Vue, while the second half will essentially be a detailed work-through of a VFX shot involving Vue – from initial planning stages to final Nuke compositing. Throughout this course we will also get a chance to explore and use the great new features of Vue 9.

Total Textures V18 – “Sky Textures” is a collection of high resolution panorama textures that can be applied to a sky dome and are set up ready to work within such a 3D environment. Due to their huge size (over 17,000 x 5,000) they can alternatively be used as a background pass in 3D render composites or even mapped onto a plane.

Total Textures V19 – "Destroyed & Damaged” contains a group of images relating to manmade destruction and includes damage caused by bullets and shells. Most of the textures have been crafted from original photography whilst a handful incorporates some hand-painted details. The effects of fire and vandalism are also covered, as well as acid spills.
