[Nuke-users] general defaults override location?

2012-05-15 Thread John RA Benson
general question related to the thread concerning default overrides for the write node: will ALL defaults work properly if they go into the menu.py? Even if they are not menu related? I've been setting them in init.py, which was working fine until I tried that with the viewer lut default.

Since menu.py files are only sourced in interactive sessions, the short answer is no. -Nathan -Original Message- From: John RA Benson Sent: Monday, May 14, 2012 11:42 PM To: Nuke user discussion Subject: [Nuke-users] general defaults override location? general question related to

Was any of it done in Nuke? looks like it was all done in a 3d package. Randy S. Little http://www.rslittle.com On Tue, May 15, 2012 at 7:43 AM, ChasingLight nuke-users-re...@thefoundry.co.uk wrote: Gday All, Can someone please enlighten me in a general or detailed way of how these images

Typically that kind of (relatively complex) projection geometry would be created in a 3D package, yes. However, depending on the camera, projection requirements, and your patience level, shots could certainly be done in Nuke as well. -Nathan From: ChasingLight Sent: Tuesday, May 15, 2012

Here#39;s one we made earlier. Geometry modelled outside nuke. Matte paintings matched to geo. reprojected and atmospherics added etc, all completed in nuke. http://whitebeamvfx.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/London.0080.jpg Howard___ Nuke-users

Hi In this case, the concept was designed through several iterations by dmp. Once director approved, then geometry was created based on the dmp. The dmp was then retouched to match the new geometry. Projection was sorted by the TD so I can#39;t say how complex that part was but only that he

You can do it that way as well. The movie 13 flowers ( I can't remember the final western name) was done this way (look up christian bale in imdb its near the top.) The complexity of doing this way can be quite hard as modeling in Nuke isn't as easy as in a 3d package. It great for less complex
