In this video, we will be adding some visual interest to our shot with the help of the Niagara Falls, and if you have followed along a previous tutorial you may have already created some (if you have not made any super nodes, don’t worry!. We will composite this shot without them). “Uber Nodes” or “Mega Nodes”.
This is the original footage we will be starting with (you can download the video here).
It’s a nice shot as it is, but I would like to add some more visual interest by adding rapids.
For the “Rapids” we use a Video of the Niagara Falls (download the video here).
Using the Masks we created and a few color nodes we can blend the water asset into the scene.
When adding an asset to a scene like this, it’s always great when we can bring something from the original footage and put it on top of our asset (like we did here with the Rock).
I wanted to remove the Bridge and though it wasn’t really causing a problem, I wanted the Rapids to pull the focus.
Adding your final Color Grade will complete your shot.

Then you can append them into your future projects.
