Hashi's quick tour of Supercomp

Supercomp is like having a node-based compositor right inside of After Effects (but without you having to mess with the nodes)! This isn't so much a tutorial as it is a guided tour. Hashi takes you through the basics of how to use Supercomp for fast and beautiful visual effects compositing.

Learn how to integrate CGI elements into your shots quickly and realistically and apply these techniques to your own composites!
