Re: [Nuke-users] deep masking

It's more difficult than it initially seems.. The obvious thing is to use the DeepMerge set to holdout to punch a hole in your A input, invert the matte and punch the inverse hole in the B input.. but when you merge these you get the dark fringing where your matte is semi-transparent, which is

[Nuke-users] Nuke to After Effects exporter (script available)

2014-06-17 Thread Simon Björk
Hi all, this comes up on the list every now and then, so I thought I'd share a script I've written awhile ago. The script will export 3d nodes (camera/card/axis) from Nuke, and convert them to camera/solid (3d)/null layers in After Effects. Note that the script isn't production tested at all,

Curious if anyone has heard any update on this issue? (Nuke glibc crashing, not Skype ;) ). Still getting incessant crashing with latest 8.0v5, to the point where it can be opening a script and touching anything causes a crash. On 14-05-03 07:21 PM, Frank Rueter|OHUfx wrote: Skype is

Hullo JC... Current show we're using slog2, which we implemented via OCIO, my favourite new toy. We now read/write everything as linear, ie, no change, in nuke, and use OCIOcolorspace nodes for the space conversions before/after IO. We created an .spi lut that did the slog2 conversion from a

If all the samples are at the same depth in both A and B, easy, the output samples are a simple mix between each sample of A and B. This is the case for, say, keymixing in a DeepColorCorrect (where only the existing sample values will be changed) I managed to get a deep volumetric keymix

Yes that would be really useful, as long as we are still limited to working in a single multichannel stream for deep images in Nuke. On 17 June 2014 01:54, Frank Rueter|OHUfx fr...@ohufx.com wrote: Hi all, since we still don't have a DeepCopy node in the default Nuke dist, does anybody

Thanks Michael! I think I got reasonably close with my expression hackiness yesterday and with a little help from somebody else we got even closer (basically by doing the soft part of the mask in flat image space). Hopefully we are good to go now. On 18/06/14 3:25 am, Michael Garrett wrote:

I have also been experiencing the viewer caching issues. I often experience the behavior where an incorrect image will get stuck in the viewer's cache, so if you are looking through a certain node on a certain frame and this happens, even if you change knobs in the viewed node, the changes won't

Sounds like you're sorted, but I found this note on the basic method I used. So you could use a flat bezier mask as you say, that is promoted to deep then used for the deep holdout. The deep image is unpremultiplied by its original deep opacity alpha and premultiplied by the new mask. Redundant
