Nuke roto trackin question
Posted in: Nuke TutorialsNuke noob question
Ive been trying to follow along with a tut from this site, and I keep runnin into an issue. The tut says to create a track, and then attach it to a garbage mask, but every time I do this, it moves the garbage mask off.
See attached. The tut doesn’t really explain this well, or at least it didn’t happen for him. Im using 6.1…with the root tool. Hes using 5.2, with the bezier tool. Is that my problem?
Following up their last successful short film for LEGO, Blue Source returns to A52 and RPS to collaborate on yet another whimsical, stop-motion, mixed-media tale.
