Hi

My dads birthday today, and composited this for him yesterday:

Image

Also got Brinkman's Digital Compositing for christmas.

Can anyone help point me to some nice compositing guides involving our beloved FOSS software gimp and blender for doing stills? right now i'm just winging it. Not really good with blender (models I snatch from blender swap) this is just so awesome, I'd love to figure out how to do stuff like this in Gimp.

Also, what is the best way to composite film grain? Right now I'm just going with a top layer of #ffffff with some grayscale rgb noise generated and composite with grain merge/extract and contrast/opacity adjusted to best suite the picture.

Maybe this "FILM GRAIN TUTORIAL" by Eric Kidd at gimp.org will be helpful to you.
