Master node-based compositing in Nuke
You are already compositing for a living, and you are tired of being the person who executes somebody else's script.
Proof in 30 seconds
Built for working artists: 288 hours of Nuke depth with Mocha Pro, aimed at what separates a mid-level compositor from a senior one: clean scripts, deep compositing, multi-pass CG and supervision. It is not a first course in compositing.

Compositing Supervisor
Illustrations of the kind of work this course builds towards, not student work. Photographs of real MAAC Whitefield student projects will replace them as batches graduate.
Is this you?
Tap whichever of these already sounds like you — there's no right answer.
What you'll make
Grounded in this course's real modules and software — not a placement promise.
Month 1
Clean, readable Nuke scripts — the thing a supervisor notices before they look at your frame.
Month 3
Multi-pass CG rebuilt and relit in comp, with AOVs used properly rather than flattened.
Month 6
Deep compositing, advanced keying, and template scripts you can reuse across a whole sequence.
Month 12
A senior-level reel and, more usefully, the ability to break a sequence down and brief other artists on it.
See it, don't just read about it
Wipe between a raw plate and the finished composite to see how much of a VFX shot is built after filming.

Fees & EMI
Fee shared at counselling
This course's fee is confirmed one-to-one so we can factor in any scheme discount you're eligible for. Nothing is hidden — ask and we'll share it immediately.
AI has changed these tools, not removed the need for people who understand story, composition, timing and craft — this curriculum teaches those fundamentals alongside the current AI-assisted tools of the trade, so graduates direct the tools instead of being replaced by them.
Open to students and working professionals.

Most of this catalogue is a software and production craft, not a drawing exam — modelling, compositing, editing, level design and design tools are all taught from first principles. Where a course does lean on drawing (character design, storyboarding), it starts from basic shapes and construction, not raw talent.
MAAC Whitefield operates under Aptech's accreditations and skill-council alignment, with a batch calendar, a published curriculum and a written fee quote a parent can review before enrolling — not a one-page sales pitch.
