Post-Diploma Certificate in Visual Effects Dynamics Simulation (Part of Specialist Diploma in Visual Effects)
About This Course
This course is part of Specialist Diploma in Visual Effects.
This course consists of 150 hours of training and the following modules:
1. Pipeline Development for CG Production (30 Hours)
2. Dynamics in Visual Effects (30 Hours)
3. Particle Effects (30 Hours)
4. Visual Effects Project (60 Hours)
What You'll Learn
1. Develop an understanding of CG production pipelines, including planning, producing, and executing visual effects projects by analyzing various tools and workflows used in the industry.
2. Gain proficiency in dynamic simulations by creating and integrating effects like rigid body simulations, fracturing, and volumetric simulations into live-action sequences.
3. Master the creation of particle effects to simulate natural phenomena and magical elements, ensuring smooth integration with live-action footage to enhance visual storytelling.
4. Apply skills in digital lighting, compositing, and color grading to blend computer-generated elements seamlessly with real-world footage, creating polished and professional visual effects.
5. Execute a comprehensive visual effects project, synthesizing learned techniques to produce a short digital film or commercial, demonstrating the ability to combine post-production and CG technologies effectively.
