Combustion 3 Complete Training DVD Set

Combustion 3 "Complete" Training DVD Set, which contains 20 hours of training, is our most comprehensive training set on Combustion 3 we have ever had.

The first 15 hours of training you will learn how to work efficiently within Combustion's streamline interface and take full advantage of Combustion's unified paint, animating, and compositing abilities. Every feature is covered in great detail including compositing, painting, animating, lights, cameras, color correction, rotoscoping, keying, tracking, stabilizing, text tools, particles, and much more. Hands-on lessons and tutorials are organized starting with simple concepts and end at the advanced user level.

The last 5 hours of training will cover in detail all the newest features of version 3 including the Edit Operator, Split and Slip Layers, Expressions, RE:Flex Plugin, and much more. We will walk you through all the new features and then put the tools to work using advanced projects including the use of the Paint Module, using Expressions and then looking at how to approach a project with Combustion.
