I'm just surprised that Nuke doesn't have a type of "Roto Brush" like After Effects. I know it isn't a perfect tool, but it sure came in handy for me. Does anyone know if Nuke does have one that just wasn't shown in this vid? But still, Nuke seems like a powerful program and I'd like to learn it.
As an After Effects guy, I just can't imagine using a spline workflow anymore for a shot like this. I understand you can get more accurate with splines than you can with Rotobrush, but it comes at the cost of SO MANY hours of work.
im just trying to learn how to crop a subject in a video and now i lost motivation just by seeing the workflow, so much work for my silly videos, still great tutorial tho, might be useful someday, thanks
Hi. Great tutorial. If I want to change colour to the masked area, I plug a grade node to a merge node and then connect the merge node to the Roto? Is that right?
Actually am a aftereffects VFX guy. Bt i like NUKE very much. Even i don't know node basics... Am just a beginner in nuke. Ur tutorial is very informative and inspiring.. Plz do just a one tutorial about "from after effect to nuke" it must be useful to many AE GUYS like me. Love u.. From India.
Hello! It really depends on how tidy or laid out you want your script to be. In some cases, some people like to have as least amount of nodes as possible--so they would roto as much as they can into one node, while I personally like to be able to easily pick out which is which on the Node tree graph. So I would create one roto node to create shapes for the arm, and then another roto node just for the head. Depending on the difficulty, I would even break it up to "Upper forearm" and "lower forearm", or "top left head" and "bottom right head" etc. It is more less the same principle as 3D character rigging: how many bones on each body part is really up to you. Hope this help! -Danasa
Thank you for the lesson. Nuke has the worst masking system out of all programs. It's ungodly how bad it is. Foundry doesn't even care to make some better node specialized for the most used compositing task. They still just have Roto node. Ugh, fucking garbage.
