01
Track
Use camera tracking, match moving and stabilisation logic to prepare shots for CG and compositing.
VFX Pipeline
Build the shot from invisible fixes to impossible worlds.
Visual effects is not just one software skill. It is a connected production pipeline where tracking, clean-up, rotoscopy, CG, lighting, simulation and compositing come together to make the final shot believable.
02
Roto
Separate subjects, create masks, clean plates and isolate elements for advanced visual effects work.
03
Build
Create set extensions, matte paintings, 3D assets, lighting and rendered elements for the shot.
04
Simulate
Explore particles, dynamics, smoke, fire, destruction and Houdini-style procedural effects thinking.
05
Composite
Blend live action and CG using Nuke-style node workflows, color, depth and final shot polish.
Programs
VFX courses shaped around production departments.

The main focus is MAAC's official visual effects direction, especially
ADVFX Plus and VFX Plus style learning across compositing, rotoscopy, tracking, 3D integration,
simulations and final shot finishing.
The page highlights tools and workflows commonly connected with MAAC
VFX references, including Nuke, Maya, Houdini, After Effects, Mocha, Fusion and 3D
Equalizer-style tracking workflows.
No. The content is positioned for film, OTT, television, advertising,
games and digital content where live action, CG and compositing skills are needed.
Students can aim to build shot breakdowns, roto and paint samples,
tracking tests, matte-paint environments, CG integration shots, FX simulation clips and final
compositing showreel pieces.
