Breakdowns

Why are breakdowns so necessary? Shouldn’t a simple before and after be enough? Who really cares that you show the certain channel or the color correction etc.

Lightwrap inside of Nuke 3d-scene?

hey folks,

i just tried to apply the lightwrap-node inside of a 3d-comp, by using an FG-card with alpha for the edge and a BG-card for the light"content".
nuke allows you to plug the A and B into 3D material or card/geo nodes. but -of course- without ability to connect it to the scene it should not work.

so, is there a way to do it in 3D or do i have to take a seperate scanline-renderer to apply the wrap later on?

thanks

Z key for Bezier points

In Nuke6.1: did anyone notice that the z key for smoothing bezier points is not working anymore as it did in previous versions? Z still makes the point smooth, but subsequent key presses dont lengthen the handles anymore 🙁
Is the Foundry trying to make us use the new roto tool instead? 😉 I like the old beziers much more.

Problems with exporting image sequence

Hey guys,

I came across an error message while rendering out of Maya 2011 that I’ve never seen before. So while rendering out a either jpeg, tif, or png etc. image sequence, I tried to make a movie out of it, using Quicktime Pro 7.6.6. The error is posted below, also this happens when I tried to export out of shake . I only happened a couple of times where I could get an image sequence into a movie. I also have Maya 2010. and used the same thing but to no avail. The project I am working on is the Gnomon Fluid Vol 1 that just got released a few weeks ago. But I doubt this could be the issue. My Maya 2011 is the free 13 month trial I got off student.autodesk.com and My Maya 2010 was purchased off studica.com. I tried looking for the error off google but to no avail. Any help would be great.
