dvGarage has released THE COMPOSITE TOOLKIT, a disk dedicated to teaching production level keying and compositing techniques using Adobe After Effects. The package includes 14 tutorials that cover nearly every aspect of keying and compositing live-action actors into computer graphics scenes. Using a pseudo light saber scene to serve as the basis of the tutorials, three behind-the-scenes movies take viewers through the entire process of shooting a blue-screen scene, while the step-by-step tutorials explain how to composite effectively the entire scene, light sabers and all. The Composite Toolkit also contains a 20-minute introduction to After Effects by After Effects expert John Foster. For a limited time, dvGarage is offering dvMatte keyer, an Adobe After Effects plug-in, bundled with THE COMPOSITE TOOLKIT. For more information, visit
