4 Kicka$$ Compositing Videos That Reveal The Art Within The Art

When you look at a photo showing a fantasy world, there is often that moment of armament on how the final photograph looks so real and yet unreal at the same time. That is because good compositors use real elements from real photos and have the ability to blend them in well. Of course, there is more to this art than just selecting photo parts and throwing them together. In fact, watching how a composite comes to life is almost as looking at a piece of art that is disconnected from the final photograph.

Photographer and retoucher Renne Robyn records her process of compositing a photo and they are a delight.
