This is an extensive Nuke Compositing course on 3d workflows inside of Nuke from an Industry Professional with years of Hollywood feature film experience.

You will learn the basics of the Nuke 3d system, up to an intermediate level, starting the most commonly used nodes and ending on advanced projections.

First, what do Ineed to know entering this course?:

If you already have a basic understanding of Nuke, you're good to go!

However, if you need to learn the absolute basics you can learn them on my previous course (on Udemy) Introduction to Nuke - NK101.

What will you learn?

• 3d Compositing Concepts(Camera moves, Parallax, Tracking, Triangulation, Solving Cameras, Orienting a 3d Scene to a real scene)

• The basics 3d nodes (Geometry, Cameras, Rendering, Lighting)

• How to build 3d scenes

• 3DCamera Projections

• Cleanplating Techniques(Removing objects from the real world, or replacing entire parts of the real world)

• Planar Tracking

• Extra techniques and tricks along the way

  
  

What projects do I get to work on in this course?:

1. A planar track, replacing a side of vehicle, and even faking a reflection, using expressions in Nuke

2.A very in depth project, involving a 3d model construction, projections, cleanplating (removing an object), and re-projecting a stabilized image. We will move a driving car off of a path, and put it onto a beach (*All while the camera is moving*)

3. A sky replacement in Nuke using various techniques, and teaching how to deal with different NodalPan situations

Why this is the right course:

I am a professional Visual Effects Compositor who has worked on numerous large scale hollywood feature films, such as Avengers:Endgame, or Star Wars:The Rise of Skywalker. Ihave moved around the globe working for the top visual effects studios, and Ihave worked on thousands of composited shots(at the highest level).

So far, my students have loved my previous courses, and I'm sure you will get a lot of value from this course.

Ihave broken down the most complicated concepts of 3d compositing into visual diagrams, so that you can learn these concepts much faster than by reading technical papers!

What else can I do with these skills?

These techniques you will learn can be applied to MANY scenarios, a few examples below:

• Replacing signs

• 3D Matte paintings with many layers

• Replace skies, buildings, or extend an ENTIREENVIRONMENT with a fake one

• Track and Replace TVscreens or phone screens with a desired effect

• Remove people or objects from complicated moving scenes

• Creating a day to night scene, and putting lights into the new scene

• Changing the texture or look of an entire LANDSCAPE

  (Example:Normal city day into a snowy covered landscape)

• 3DTrack a scene, which can be exported to a third party software such as AUTODESKMAYA.This will allow you make a full CGIscene

• Create a 3d scene that supports particles in Nuke (Such as creating a snowy scene, or rainy scene)

These techniques are absolutely vital to learn if you wish to pursue becoming a better compositors.This is the class Iwish Iwould have had at the early stages of my career.

Note:You will be required to sign up and download the project files if you want to follow along with this class

I hope you'll join me.Thanks!
