  1. Andrew, is it possible to add compositor effects to animations or do I have to manipulate each image/frame? I would like to add some shine and glare to my animation and I think the compositor must be the way to go, but not sure if there is a simpler way to do this manipulation over many images. Thanks in advance for your awesome videos Andrew

  2. Me: I don't need a tutorial about the composer I have been using blender for over a year! Well my star wars models are downloading, might as well watch anyway

    Andrew at 6:12: Ok, so we only want to effect this green man so first, we need to separate him from the rest of the scene

    Me: you can do that 0_o

  3. I'm using Linux mint and blender 2.77. Tried to render in blender render and cycles, still no image. Use alpha is clicked on and the environment is off. Hand stands while juggling going to fix the problem?

  4. Hey guys, I'm just putting my first steps in blender, so this will be a noob question. After rendering a scene, I have been playing a bit in the compositor. But now what? I would now like to save the result that I have. Do I really have to re-render everything or is there a more simple way? Sorry for this question, but all tutorials that I find about compositing end with the final editing in the compositor. Nobody is showing what they do next….

  5. Its so funny. 4 years ago I found Andrew on Blender Guru. At the time I JUST started Blender, and had next to NO idea what he was talking about this "compositor". I thought I could never learn it. Now (and a few years ago) I use the compositor all the time and this video is like super easy. I just want to give Andrew a HUGE thanks for helping me get started in Blender 😀

  6. A food assembly line! An absolutely genius way to describe flow logic!

    I love the Compositer, even if I have almost no clue what I'd doing. It's so flexible and your creativity/genius(or lucky tinkering in my case) is the limit!

    3 years later, is there a way we can still purchase the book? I would absolutely love to learn the compositer inside and out and I love your tutorials so I think it would well worth the investment.

  7. Hi, Andrew Price! Thank you simple for understanding tutorial! May i ask you? I'm on blender 2.74 and same steps as in video doesn't work. Im trying to duplicate process as in video. So, i have two render layers and Scene render layer can be blurred via compositing, and GreenMan just shows me X thing…. so no image at all. Please help.
