What’s the background regarding the course? In response to a huge government and private initiative, a large cross section of people from many of the top of the VFX facilities in the UK got together in 2011 to define what was the most crucial things for educators and students in VFX to know. For professor Tahl Niran, it was a major turning point in how he approached training.

This course and the one after is a must if your new or old and wondering about some of the topics. If you know everything then don't bother.
