Hasta La Motion!

Hello,

I’m working with the Camera node in Nuke and want to provide the horizontal and vertical aperture of my camera which is a Panasonic DVX100B.

I did some research but didn’t find what these settings should be for ccd chips.

For film cameras I found it easy as there are standard aperture sizes depending on your format however for a ccd chip..

Has anyone gotten ccd aperture settings for their camera?

nice tutorial

Does anyone know if there’s a way to define where a panel created with nuke.Panel() will be drawn on the screen? I know it defaults to the mouse cursor’s position, but is there a way to override this?

I have a panel with buttons that can add or remove text input fields, etc., and since I don’t think you can do this dynamically, I basically have a catcher to see if the panel needs to be evaluated yet or simply redrawn with more (or fewer) parameters. However, every time it’s redrawn, it centers itself at the mouse cursor’s position, so it keeps moving around.

I looked into using some kind of cheat to get the mouse’s position right when the panel was drawn and then set it to the same thing right before it was drawn again, but there’s no easy (or python-native) way to do this, so that option is kind of out.

So I’m wondering if there’s a way to set a python panel to draw x pixels from screen-left and y from screen-top or something, or any other cheats/workarounds/etc.

Thanks a lot!

We’re working on creating a CG rabbit head in Cinema 4D and compositing in Nuke, but whenever I bring in the background plate the color shifts. The original files came from an Avid DS and when we import them into after effects or back into the avid, the color stays the same. I’ve tried rendering out quicktime files with animation compression and targa sequences and it still happens even if I just import the footage and send it directly back out through a write node.

Here’s a splitscreen from the Avid with the composite and color shifted image on the left and original footage on the right.

Any Ideas what I can do to prevent this?

I have a scene where the Bg is in 2048 x 1556 and I have cg elements rendered in 1828 x 1556 so now when I import these two elements

the bg is static and is not changing the aspect ratio and the cg elements are changing into the 2:1 aspect but I expect the bg also should change to the same aspect ratio
what could be wrong with my setup?

when I press ctrl + shift + p the cg elements get resized but not the bg

I double checked in the file read node it has both root and proxy are set to 2:1 aspect ratio….

what could be the fault?
