Assignment · Project 3: Composite Shot

Weeks 7–9 · Runtime 10–15 seconds · Weight 15%

Brief

Key a green-screen clip (or a free stock subject) into a new environment and add a footage-inside-type title. Goal: a believable composite, color-matched and grounded.

Classes that build it

• Week 7 — Compositing / Keying
• Week 8 — Track Mattes
• Week 9 — Project 3 Wrap-Up

Must deliver

• A clean key with refined edges — no green fringe
• One track-matte title (footage showing through text)
• Color/light match between subject and background

How it's graded

Scored on the course rubric (0–100) × 15%. A project that is portfolio-ready (80+) lands at the A/B boundary. See the Course Overview for the full rubric, then self-review before you submit.

Submitting your work

• Render your final movie to spec (H.264 MP4, 1080p, at the project's frame rate).
• Upload the rendered movie only — do not upload the project, AE files, or source files.
• Archive your project (collect files) into a single compressed ZIP for your own records.

See the course's Rendering and Submission pages for the exact steps.
