Fantastic tutorial, Kert – can’t wait to try it! Much faster & more controllable than trying to get the same effect in 3d.

Hi Kert,
It’s a great tutorial, but for ease of downloading I’d suggest splitting the AE and Fusion parts up.
Since I don’t use AE I spent a lot of time waiting for the AE part to end, since it’s only partly beneficial for my needs.

hi there.. interesting tutorial..
I tried applying it to a greenscreen shot after applying keylight and I’m not getting the same result with the Set Channels effect so I can’t even get started..
any ideas? thanks!!!!!!!

Hi Ado! The problem might be that you will need to precomp your layer with keylight on it, before you apply the other effects. Give that a try, and see if it helps.

thanks for the tutorial you are a great instrutor, im gonna start doing this ligthwrap thing on everything now hehe. i guess the advantage of using node base compositing aplications is that you can reuse the set of tools for ligthwrap on other footage…cool stuff
