- 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!
0:00 - Intro
0:44 - Basics of Supercomp
2:01 - Aircraft/spaceship in a hazy sky
3:15 - The Blur Behind effect for integrating fog, smoke, and clouds
4:18 - The Volume Fog effect for light rays and hazy shadows
5:25 - Layers are aware of the layers behind them - demo with Optical Glow
7:01 - UFO in the city
8:28 - The power and ease of the Match Background button
9:53 - Adjustment layers for displacement and heat blur
11:51 - Adding stock explosions or fire into your scene
14:37 - Tying everything together with color grading in Magic Bullet Looks
17:02 - Speed run demonstrating how fast it is to get a good composite

this is the best way to promote red giant Supercomp thank you Hashi's again
Glad you found this useful!
Love the way Hashi teaches. He has added so much to my skill set. It is teachings like this and the short film projects that first sold me on Red Giant tools. Can't wait for the next upload.
Wow, thank you!
Appreciate it!!! Thank you.
Supercomp packs some serious power
Thank you for this, Hashi. This really helps a great deal!
Great tutorial, thanks for this one.
great work and tutorial
Glad you liked it!
Thanks Hashi, awesome tutorial! Also, just wanted to say that Cheap Tricks is dearly missed. That unmistakable tune in the first part of the video really got us craving for a new episode!
We released a new Cheap Tricks last Monday! Check it out here: th-cam.com/video/sKRqA97dDJ4/w-d-xo.html
Awesome information 💥
Thanks ✌️
Thanks to share it you are best.. good luck 🤞
Dad please make more vfx tutorial ❤❤
My fav cheap tricks tutorial
Can try?
I’ve been getting used to it. Very Super Life Saver tool. It’s like Alpha Matte on Steroids. With masking and Depth Map, this could be the only tool we need for VFX.
We worked really hard to make Supercomp a powerful VFX tool and we've got ideas to make it even more powerful.
@@MaxonRedgiant Wooohooo! Awesome
At 1:35 you mention that you can still do all the traditional transformations in the original layer and see it reflected in Supercomp - do things like alpha matte and layer parenting work? Or do they need to be pre-comped? Just curious before I get this plugin
The alpha channel of any single layer is preserved in Supercomp - if your layer uses another layer as its matte, they need to be pre-comped, but as an alternate you can use the Set Matte effect on that layer.
As for layer parenting - those transform properties and relationships are preserved!
@@theActionMovieKid Awesome, thanks!!
Is there a way to make the match background feature change as the foreground object changes location?
Not automatically (and, in most cases, you wouldn't want it to be automatic anyway for the reasons Michael showed in his tutorial: th-cam.com/video/N_VWRLcQLvI/w-d-xo.html ).
However, you can activate keyframing for the black point and white point and use the button to set new values at any given time.
is it possible to use a shadow pass using a multiply blending mode in supercomp? i cant figure out how to use it with my shadow pass
You would use the your shadow pass in Supercomp as an adjustment layer (assuming you have alpha where there is supposed to be shadow). You would would then apply the color correction effect to the adjustment layer and turn down the exposure and such.
@@MaxonRedgiant thanks so much i will try when im home 🙏🙏👏
Background músic kinda Keygen vibes but great tutorial
Been a Long time since Someone told me That i look great today
I have applied fog footage for supercomp but it turns out that there is no transparency. Pls help
If your fog layer doesn't have an alpha channel, you can us the native Extract effect in After Effects to create one.
please bring RG plugins to blackmagic fusion
Thank you for the suggestion!
@@MaxonRedgiantseriously you guys have to! Such pain watching super comp demos knowing it won't work with DaVinci Resolve nor Fusion. The same day you'd release everything for those you'd make a billion dollars or something, why wait😅
Nice job as always 💚 I have some questions I hope you can help with
1_ how can you blend smoke on top of fire without Mike fire dim? ( fire should turn Red )
2_ how can you bled shadow from cg element and real life object?
1. If the brightness of the fire is coming from Optical Glow, it will get appropriately darker as other elements go in front of it (and that would also be a great time to use the Blur Behind effect on the smoke layer as well). So, you may need to use some effects to knock the exposure down on the fire and then use Supercomp to bring the color back.
2. Having shadows from CG objects and shadows from photographed elements in the same scene can be tricky. You certainly don't want the cg shadow to subtract from the real shadow to make things darker! There are multiple ways to address this sort of thing and it depends on the shot. One way is to use keying or roto to knock out the CG shadow layer when it crosses over the real shadow.
Can it be rendered with alpha in supercomp?
Supercomp is intended to be the final step in your compositing process. So, there isn't any way to create alpha.
That's not to say it couldn't be changed in the future. What is it you would like to do with it that you need alpha for?
@@MaxonRedgiant Greetings, I have had problems when I work with render passes and I have to change the blending modes, at least the ambient occlusion when changing it to multiple does not work for me in supercomp, I don't know if you understand me.
Understood! For an AO pass, use the Extract effect in AE (fully put to one direction with full softness) and use that layer as an Adjustment layer in Supercomp. Just apply the color correction effect to it and make it darker as needed! @@vanesieg7097
