Motion Media & renowned NUKE Trainer Steve Wright bring you this unique Friday class that will explore and demonstrate the key features of Nuke as compared to After Effects, and equip attending artists with a basic understanding of Nuke's powerful workflow.
Nuke has become the power driver of visual effects compositing today and is now used in virtually all the major studios around the world. However, there are thousands of digital artists using After Effects for their visual effects shots. While AE is a venerable compositing program with a long line of loyal users, when it comes to complex vfx shots Nuke's node-based compositing approach is faster and therefore a more cost effective tool for visual effects shots. In this class we will see why it is that Nuke performs highly complex tasks faster and with unmatched feature film quality while addressing the following topics:
