newbie matte question

Hi all,

I have rendered out an image from cinema 4d together with a matte for that image, but In Nuke, when I merge the image with a background using the matte as a mask, I get a little white edge around my object. As if the matte is slightly too large… Does anybody know what’s going on?

Greetz,
HW

Viewer Hot Keys?

I’m looking to add/create a hot key to view the ‘depth’ in the viewer, does anyone know how to access this?

I’d like to hit one key and have the layer to display ‘channels’ set to ‘depth’ and the ‘display style’ set to ‘R’ for the red channel.

Thanks,

Nuke random frames

Hi

Quick question for the more experienced Nuke artists

I have a 600 frame image sequence, and I need to access it randomly ( it’s a particle element for a timelapse shot, so I need a bit of jerky motion ).

I am trying to figure out an expression that will do it, but if there is any other way of doing this it would be great to know.

Cheers

Canon .CR2 (RAW) files into Nuke?

Hi All,

So I’m working on a project that I’m shooting a few background plates for with a Canon 5D mII and I’m shooting in camera raw to get the best image quality.

Now instead of opening those raw files up in Adobe RAW, tone-mapping it and then spitting it out as a 8-bit image to use in my comp… I’m wondering if theres a way to bring my RAW image data into Nuke to take advange of RAW’s linear 12-bit color depth, which I can CC myself later down the line.

No use throwing away perfectly good color info… right?

Any ideas on how I could do this? Thanks!
