    Man, Jacob. I'll echo the sentiments from others. You really explain the process extremely well. There's tons of info here that other presenters will gloss over but you are thoughtful and extremely elaborate in your explanation. And the infographic was much needed.

    Thank you so much for putting this tutorial out there! It's an excellent resource. I'm a 2D artist who only know basic modeling, and gave up on 3D stuff because of the learning curve and I don't have time to start from scratch. This tutorial helps me understand that compositing in 2D and 3D aren't that different. Same lighting principles, same solution, just different engines. Though it will definitely take a while and so much of know how for someone entirely new to 3D to be able to come up with a solution this great for other problems that's as complex as this one.
