that eliminates self-doubt, stress, and overwhelm.
Who is it for?
Experienced Compositing Artists - Very thorough and fairly fast-paced, the program has several knowledge assumptions and not so much a step-by-step type of teaching on the most basic foundations.
Current & Aspiring Leads and Supervisors - Designed for professionals who feel ready and with the necessary confidence to take leadership roles. Also for those with some experience on this front, but don't feel as comfortable as they would like in everything that this role entails.
It's NOT about learning how to make pretty imagery - You won’t be learning how to create beautiful imagery - at this stage, you probably already know how to do that! The transformation occurs within you as you develop the ability to creatively discover solutions!
