Jerrod does a great job presenting the material. It does assume prior knowledge of Lightwave, but actually the base information presented could be applied to any 3D application and compositing program.
Fantastic video. The set is highly recommended for learning a lightwave to combustion workflow from a true master in the field. Plus, all the footage comes from the show Firefly.
