Hasta La Motion!

I’m sorry to be asking about this but I’m planning to sign up for April11 term on fxphd. I’m planning to apply as (entry level / first time) Nuke compositor / stereo compositor after the term, and I’m wondering what could be the best nuke/stereo nuke courses I’ll be taking that you know (or you’ve taken before) that will be worth to take and learn.

I’m planning to sign up for the 5 courses, three courses are already my final choices, they are:

1. Intermediate Nuke
2. Advanced Nuke
3. Intro to Maya 11

I’m still in dilemma for the remaining 2 courses, among to choose are:

1. Nuke and Sterescopic
2. Nuke 2D to 3D Stereo Conversion
3. Nuke Stereoscopic Workshop ( i hope they still have this in April)
4. Roto Techniques for Stereoscopic Conversion ( i hope they still have this in April)

Just a note, i don’t have yet any experiences with compositing and roto in the real industry, and i want to choose the courses well so I’ll get prepared with my reel and to have much confidence the moment i apply to vfx houses.

Thank you in advance for the help and suggestions. I owe you this. Hope to hear from everyone. 😀

Cheers!

lately i was trying to get into Filmlights Truelight system, but since i am mostly from Compositing dpt., i have no special knowledge of DI. Workin’ on Foundry’s NUKE 6.2 with calibrated monitor (LCD – EIZO CG243W) in controlled enviroment. From time to time i had to work with scanned film DPX seq. but also with digitaly captured source images (RED, HD, …). Nuke has build-in Truelight plugin, but only a few basic profiles provided. So the main question is: "Who is creating truelight profiles, and where can i reach them? Is it Filmlight Ltd. themself or stock makers ? Or do we need DI specialist with Truelight hardware to build custom ones ? I am just wondering what is the right way to use them, and learn some new stuff…
