Compositing and Image Integration - Lab 2

June 8 - July 27th

Mon/Wed, 2pm-5pm

Instructor: Ben Bays

Ben Bays’ class will address the integration of image, video and 3D surface: compositing and projection in Maya and After Effects.  Students will explore the projection of texture onto 3D forms and learn how to leverage those techniques to create matte paintings, facades and digital environments.  A second component of the course will focus on translating the human performance into 3D with Matchmoving, Tracking, Rigging and Deformations.  Students will capture performance footage and use tracking data to build articulated skeletons for use in 3D animation.  The third component of the class will examine building spatial volumes and physical simulations: clouds, fluids, rigid body, soft body and cloth.  Students will create procedural simulations and explore advanced materials/particle rendering.

Hello.  I am Ben Bays.  My friends call me Beans.  Here is a picture of my lovely wife, Tiffany, and myself in Bodrum, Turkey.  Beer in foreground, castle in background. :)
