[ ONCE THE FILM WAS FULLY ANIMATED, IT WAS TIME TO BEGIN THE COMPOSITING PROCESS ]
Our main goals were:
1. Make backgrounds and characters cohesive
2. Add extra effects such as lighting + glows
3. Ensure colours are vibrant
TIME SPENT: 1 week (approx.)
PROGRAM USED: Adobe After Effects

[ PROCESS ]
I began the compositing process by testing out elements in After Effects, and figuring out what effects we could use to achieve the look we wanted
Once we knew what we wanted, I created a "compositing guide" which would serve as a checklist for what each scene needed
Elements were removed from Toon Boom Harmony as a PNG sequence, then imported into After Effects and layered correctly
