Explore the interface of the compositing software, including the workspace panel, timeline panel, and viewport, and learn how operator controls, transforms, and playback tools shape your final composite.
Learn to import video in Autodesk combustion, examine supported formats and convert non supported footage to avc or mp4, then set up a new workspace and import media.
Master the editing timeline with playback controls, start, play forward or backward, and loop or ping pong, while tracking frames and managing keyframes, markers, and imports.
Learn to extend and adjust footage duration using start and end frames, and replace footage in a composition while preserving effects and transformations.
Explore layer controls in a hands-on Autodesk Combustion workflow, using transform controls to animate birds from left to right, adjusting position, scale, rotation, and pivot while renaming layers for compositing.
Isolate the boy with the magnetic lasso or pen tool, crop the background, and reveal the alpha channel for compositing. Convert the 24-bit RGB JPG to 32-bit to preserve transparency.
learn to use alpha channels and transparency to composite images with different backgrounds in Autodesk Combustion, preserving color plus alpha across 32-bit footage.
Explore transfer modes, or blend modes, in a 2D composite by adjusting layer opacity and trying normal, dissolve, and add effects to blend footage behind other layers.
Master layer blending in autodesk combustion hands-on part 2, covering subtract, multiply, and screen modes. See how these modes darken or brighten pixels to composite foreground with background.
Explore how to use screen blend mode in Autodesk Combustion to composite foreground elements with video, adjusting frames, rotation, and scale for a seamless bloom effect.
Explore layer blending in Autodesk Combustion, applying negative transfer mode, colorize, and luminance to control how the current layer samples from behind it for dynamic composites.
Preserve alpha lets you keep alpha information in a 2d composite, enabling your top layer to reveal texture from beneath and apply text or video textures via the alpha channel.
Preserve alpha to embed video textures into text, using bold fonts like Arial Black or Impact, and animate the texture with scale and keyframes for dynamic results.
Explore the stencil layer, a special feature that must reside in the same composite and uses alpha data to pull pixels into the target layer's alpha channel.
Create and adjust stencil layer designs using shapes and text, apply the design to footage, and toggle visibility and alpha to explore dynamic effects.
Apply animation to image layers by keyframing scale and y-axis transforms, adjust the timeline, add transitions, and use easing for smooth motion.
Learn the interface and workspace panel, import media, use the operator controls, zoom and pan the viewport, and manage layers in 2d composites while animating and transforming with alpha and transfer modes.
Autodesk Combustion is a computer program for motion graphics, stunning visuals, and compositing. It is a paid application by the famous software tycoons Autodesk media and entertainment, which is used to create quick and easy visual effects. Combustion was released in the year 2008 and it is available for both Windows and Mac OS. Combustion was formerly known as discreet.
Combustion is an all in one tool which allows paint, animate, edit and composes 2D and 3D visuals in an integrated environment. Also, it is a resolution-independent vector-based animation software which composes visuals corresponding to TV, videos, web, and feature film domains.
Combustion is a cost-effective software that provides basic to advanced features and gives high-quality output at a low cost. This software is used by different professionals like graphic designers, animators, visual effect artists, web designers, etc. and combustion helps them to produce outstanding VFX for a multitude of projects.
Using Autodesk combustion you can produce multi workspace that can handle various projects like compositing, painting projects and visuals effects at the same time. The main advantage of combustion over other graphics software is that it allows the user to switch freely from 2D space to 3D space and managing the complexity of projects by using the layers window
