Which of the following describes a Close-up shot? It captures a complete scene and can reduce objects to small dots. It includes very little, if any, background and concentrates on an object or a fragment of an object. It includes very little, if any, background and concentrates on an object or a fragment of an object.
A renderable camera in Maya is also the same as a viewing camera. True False False
Increasing the focal length makes objects appear farther away. True False False

What is the main difference between Depth compositing and Multiplane compositing? Depth compositing is strictly a 2D event with a Z channel while Multiplane compositing is a true 3D environment with no Z channel.
What is the role of a compositor in a 3D animation studio? To bring together all 3D elements and create a screen-ready render. To handle the rigging and setup of characters. To write the storyboard and animatic. To model the 3D characters. To bring together all 3D elements and create a screen-ready render.
What is the purpose of a matte in CGI compositing? It creates a seamless workflow with 3D creation tools. It tells the computer which pixels to use from the foreground and background images. It tells the computer which pixels to use from the foreground and background images.
