Dive into a hands-on exercise focused on reconstructing render passes into a complete image using the Compositor (Node Editor) in Blender. Work with a pre-built coffee scene designed by Jonathan Lampel, offering a practical environment to hone your compositing skills. After rendering, focus on reconstructing the image and then enhancing it for visual appeal, similar to applying a manual Instagram filter. This 18-minute tutorial emphasizes the importance of flexible render editing without the need for re-rendering. Exercise your artistic interpretation to create an appealing final result. CGC members can access downloadable files and submit their completed exercises for feedback.
