    In this Blender tutorial we'll look at how we can composite a CG object behind some real glass in our live-action footage. We'll also dive into some fundamental render & compositing principles that will hopefully prepare you to tackle other challenging VFX shots!

    Thank you so much for putting this tutorial out there! It's an excellent resource. I'm a 2D artist who only know basic modeling, and gave up on 3D stuff because of the learning curve and I don't have time to start from scratch. This tutorial helps me understand that compositing in 2D and 3D aren't that different. Same lighting principles, same solution, just different engines. Though it will definitely take a while and so much of know how for someone entirely new to 3D to be able to come up with a solution this great for other problems that's as complex as this one.
