Awesome video! Some things, that might be useful to know: 1. The selected object for DoF is not the focal point, but it determines the focal point by the relative distance to the camera. If you move the empty behind the camera for example, you'll see that there is a point where your scene is in focus again. To actually see the focal point, turn on "Limits" in the Camera viewport display properties 2. Instead of copying the hex code for colors, pressing Ctrl C/Ctrl V on color fields allows copy pasting of colors without clicking the color fields. 3. Vignette is pronounced "Win yet", I struggle with this too xD 4. To see the difference between with and without compositing, switch the layer in the image editor to your Base Layer (named "View Layer" by default). If you want to see the before as backdrop in the compositor, just view the Render Layers node with the viewer. Thanks for the explanations, I learned some new compositing techniques
I'm new to compositing. Are there any limitations in Blender compositor in comparison to Nuke or other industry compositing softwares?Because i keep seeing how horrible Blender's compositor is. 🤔
Of course there are a lot limitations if you want more then color correction, vignette and some lens settings... And film grain... The compositing in blender is great, for "simpler projects" but can't archive same results like dedicated premium software
Hey, that depends on your work and how much you want to spend for this software. But i can tell you that no software will handle big projects and a smooth workflow with just 8gb ram . thats the downside of 3d. the better you hardware the better your working experience and speed. but I can't give you any recommendations, other than that Blender isn't great for particle simulations xD
If you have a complete white image you probably overkilled one setting xD If you plug it into the view node, the preview turns also white? Or just after safing?
Hey, if you render an animation, each frame will be composed automatically if it's enabled. If you have some cuts in your animation, render the individual sequences while checking if the compositing also match to the next of your animation sequence. ✌️ That's what I do
Mist and shadow doesn't appear for me like it does in your video, there's dots for indirect light transmission and more but I cant find a way to make shadow and mist in the list
Check you color management. Don't use standard, instead AgX or Filmic if it's not blender 4+ Alsoncheck your overwrite settings for the color management. If this option is enabled, you will get different results.
Danke für die Tipps! Ist krass was alles in Blender steckt. Ich arbeite sehr gern mit Fusion Studio und das wurde mir damals sehr empfohlen. Ist das nicht auch kostenlos immer gewesen?
thanks so luch for this was looking for a good explanation....so i have to bring in my render layers ?

GREAT GREAT GREAT Tutorial! I was looking ages for a clear explanation on compositing!
Thank you!
@1:50 your grey previews look better than my renders!

@@davidkohlmann ok i see, thanks for quick response.
You are so clever! Thanks
Hello! I have an HP laptop with 8GB RAM.
Are there any softwares which are most suitable for 8GB RAM laptop than Blender?
Hey, that depends on your work and how much you want to spend for this software.
But i can tell you that no software will handle big projects and a smooth workflow with just 8gb ram . thats the downside of 3d. the better you hardware the better your working experience and speed.

@@davidkohlmann thank you somuch for the response
great video!Thanks
man this the type of compositing i needed for my thumbnails ty
thanks for sharing this wonderful tutorial
I’m having an issue when I comes to the color correction 4:42 when I render, it goes all white.
If you have a complete white image you probably overkilled one setting xD
If you plug it into the view node, the preview turns also white? Or just after safing?
I pressed M and all my hard work turned into a white fog ☹️
M mutes nodes
Love this video ❤️
hey buddy, if you are rendering an animation, would you do that correction frame by frame? what would your approach be? nice content man , keep going
Hey, if you render an animation, each frame will be composed automatically if it's enabled.
If you have some cuts in your animation, render the individual sequences while checking if the compositing also match to the next of your animation sequence. ✌️ That's what I do
and how do I enable it? sorry for the noob question.. I really dont know and thanks for the reply!@@davidkohlmann
Thank you!
what is the equivalent of connecting mist, shadow, AO to the color ramps in Cycles?
You can control the strength with it. Or with other words. You can control the black and white values to increase or decrease the contrast.
Mist and shadow doesn't appear for me like it does in your video, there's dots for indirect light transmission and more but I cant find a way to make shadow and mist in the list
I guessed that it was because I was using cycles but maybe it's something in my settings
@@kasiaklorek7338 check your "view layer" properties. There you can enable all you need 😊
When I rendered images in new blender version out put image colour was different than to render result how to fix it
Check you color management. Don't use standard, instead AgX or Filmic if it's not blender 4+
Alsoncheck your overwrite settings for the color management. If this option is enabled, you will get different results.
Thank you I'll try
Amazing!
Nice project, thanks for sharing your technics ;)
of course and ty
DUUUUDE, i didnt even know that it was possible!
i think its important to give the viewer a second to see each node effect on the result
you probably wont see this but in blender 3.5 there is no shadow so what do i use instead
In the correction node?
@@davidkohlmann no in the render layers
there is no way to turn shadow on in the view layer properties
i found out its is because im using cycles not eevee
@@TheRaptorsGameYT xD
I was wondering would that worth it to go and deal with it in nuke ?
Danke für die Tipps! Ist krass was alles in Blender steckt. Ich arbeite sehr gern mit Fusion Studio und das wurde mir damals sehr empfohlen. Ist das nicht auch kostenlos immer gewesen?
Damit kenne ich mich leider nicht aus😅 nur mit Blender und DaVinci Resolve
Great! thanks bro
At the beginning it was good, but after in the midway the video was so rushed.
Ty for feedback 🙏
Sehr nice! Danke!
Sehr gerne 🙂
How do you render an entire animation with the composite applied to it?
Blender applies this automatically to each frame
Nicely done!
Davinci is free mate
Yes, but not all features. Lense Distortion for example you only get from the paid version. But that's what I said in the video😂
