Under the name “Composure”, a realtime compositing tool was added this month in the new Unreal Engine 4.17 release. This allows you to combine recorded images or videos and CG footage with familiar compositing processes such as lens distortion or colour correction. You can find a complete feature overview in the official release notes.
Getting to Know Composure
In the session below, you can see recorded live training from Epic Games on the new tool. The documentation also includes a quick-start guide, which you can view here. Epic Games also provides you with an example file in .FBX format.
Download and Availability
Unreal Engine 4.17 is available free of charge here to every registered user, and Composure is included in the new version.
