What will I learn?

This Special Effects Course provides a straightforward, hands-on guide to creating and carrying out striking crash and time-freeze scenes even with limited time and money. You will learn how to break down shots, do previsualization, and plan ahead, then progress to secure on-set stunts, rain and breakaway setups, and lighting for night wet streets. It wraps up with digital processes for tracking, compositing, colour grading, rendering, and delivery to ensure the work looks sharp, believable, and well-organized.
