This is well explained and oh-so visually pleasing. Your narration and presentation skills are incredibly high, really defying the whole “if you can’t teach, do” stereotype. I expect to spend a little while binging everything you’ve made!

    Thank you so much for putting this tutorial out there! It's an excellent resource. I'm a 2D artist who only know basic modeling, and gave up on 3D stuff because of the learning curve and I don't have time to start from scratch. This tutorial helps me understand that compositing in 2D and 3D aren't that different. Same lighting principles, same solution, just different engines. Though it will definitely take a while and so much of know how for someone entirely new to 3D to be able to come up with a solution this great for other problems that's as complex as this one.

    This...this is amazing. You managed to explain something that looked pretty complex at first, extremely well, and the final render looks great! Really high quality tut right here. I'd love to see more VFX tuts in the future (also things like compositing in conjunction with projection mapping, masking, everything really), and how you approach complex VFX scenes (if you don't mind making more tutorials ;) )

    Hey Benjamin, thanks so much! I will definitely be making more. Thank you for those suggestions, I will add them to the idea list and see if I can't cover them in future tutorials.
