I am creating a clock. I need to create an expression that will rotate the pendulum 15 to -15 consistently through out the entire piece and create and expression for the eyes of the clock to rotate at the same speed and time as the pendulum yet in opposite directions. Any advise on creating these expressions in Nuke?

I’m often find myself in a situation where I want to use mattes from objects in a 3d setup. For example, I have several images with alpha channels going into a scene node and going out through a scanline renderer. After the scanline renderer all alpha channels from the objects have been merged into one single alpha channel. But what if I want to use only one of the elements as a matte later down the tree? One solution is to copy a matte into a new channel before going into the scene node, but then the matte will be blocked out if another object is in front of it in 3d space. Another solution is to use separate scanline renderers for every matte, but that isn’t very efficient of course. Anyone havea nice solution for this?

Hello,

Is it possible to rename some of the 3d tracks after a camera solve? Reason is that when I export the FBX to Maya I end up with lots of locators and I have to figure out which locator I was interested in and delete the rest of the tracks of the point cloud.

Work arounds so far
1. Place a card in Nuke on the tracks which I want and delete all the tracks in Nuke itself. Use card as reference.
2. In Maya, delete the unwanted locaters via outliner.

I’m working on a matchmove project and I have to pull the 3D track in Nuke, but my coworker needs to do his animation, lighting, and texturing in Maya 2011.

Every tutorial I ever see covers moving from Maya to Nuke, but not vice versa.

Some things to know before you comment:

Yes, I’ve used the writeGeo node
Yes, I’ve downloaded the Nuke-to-Maya python script from Nukepedia. They both technically work, I can import that scene, but it seems to import all screwy in scale, and my ground plane is never oriented properly in Maya so the objects will slide.

To be honest, as much as I love Nuke, they don’t seem to take the larger pipeline into consideration when designing this suite. Getting it into Maya is an obnoxious process, and they could take a page or two out of PFTrack’s or Boujou’s books where you can just export a .ma with your scene all set up already.
