Gumroad – NK606 – Advanced CG Compositing and Look Development in Nuke with Alex Hanneman
English | Tutorial | Size: 55.4GB

An advanced CG Compositing class, teaching real world and up-to-date workflows.

This class is meant to simulate a feature film level shot, so it requires time, patience and a high attention to extremely small details.

Course Length:

This course is the equivalent of a multi-week university course.

This course is over 40 hours of training, from a Senior VFX Compositor

The Instructor:

Alex has worked at globally at various well known VFX Studios such as Weta Digital, Industrial Light and Magic, MPC, Sony Pictures Imageworks, and Framestore.

Detailed Description:

Alex will teach you his personal workflow for approaching a complex CG shot, focusing on teaching you to improve ‘your artistic eye’, and seeing how to build up an image with hundreds of layers and color corrections.

Specific nodes aren’t difficult to learn in Nuke – it’s the process of layering and understanding how an image should look that defines an experienced compositor. This class focuses in on these technical and artistic concepts and methods.

We will cover dozens of concepts such as:
