great just amazing platform for practising Fx simulation clips for here for VFX comp shot practicing

[@ActionVFXofficial]

[@thegamingguy7421]

I am making my own, I filmed myself on a green screen and following along, but when I pre-render after the keying, my edges are pixelated, as well as the fire comp when i take it into the project

[@ActionVFXofficial]

It could be noise in the footage. You might need to denoise the footage before keying! Let us know if this helps.

[@mordecai1484]

I have absolutely zero experience with After effects and was wandering if it's possible to cast fire lighting (Or any kind of vfx lighting) on imported 3d object, realistically?

[@yasiraboobakar1832]

Awesome
