ACES! Four simple letters, but a complete mystery to many VFX artists. Yet mastering ACES is the secret to achieving those rich, cinematic renders that look straight out of a Hollywood movie. It’s the missing link you’ve been searching for. In this mini-course, Urban will guide you through his full workflow, using ACES color spaces to seamlessly integrate LOG footage with CG renders. You’ll learn how to properly convert LOG to the correct color space, work with it inside Nuke, and export everything for a final grade in DaVinci Resolve. By the end, you’ll have the KUNG FU ACES skills you need to kick some serious ass and take your renders to the next level.

Beyond Explosions: yes you will learn explosions. but in order to finish these shots you need to know Shading, Rendering, Compositing and a lot of things a "generalist" would do. After the workshop you should be equipped with the knowledge to be a one man motherf*cking army and kick ass. You will copy my SkillStack that i worked more then a decade on and hopefully that will give you a good double jump forward.
