Renderman for Maya Lighting and Compositing Video Tutorial

Hello Friends, I recorded a new Lighting & Compositing tutorial using renderman for maya and after effects.



Here

I go over techniques I usually use to block a shot in and quickly get a feeling for it with as few lights as possible.
I explain how to apply the linear workflow on textures in order to get more natural lighting.
I finally show how to break down the shots into passes and composite them together in After Effects.

I hope you enjoy!
