Select all readers

Is there a script to select all the readers in my comp and replace them.
I know there a search and replace but you have to select first your node. Is there a way to do it without selecting the readers. Thanks!

is that legal?

Hi,

I want to practice some fx on existing footages say from existing video clips or movies for non commercial use. It could end up on my reel but I’ll supply a before and after as well as credits. If I use it for a non commercial purpose is it acceptable and allowed? Or am I taking the risk of being sued or being asked to remove an fx piece I did from my reel.

*edit*
Just to clerify, I’m not saying I’ll take a piece from a huge mega VFX movie and add a small fx and cliam I did the shot, I’m saying I’ll take a short clip from a old or a regular movie that has no fx in it at all and add something. IE shot extention, cg building, sky replacement, etc.

Plugins for Nuke

Does anyone know if those plugins work for nuke:
– Sapphire
– ReelSmart Motion Blur
_ Fristchluft lenscare

For example, I think that furnace motion blur is great, but too slow. ReelSmart is much faster. As weel as Sapphire plugins, they are all a way faster than the furnace. And I want a depth of field which make good defocus and can’t find one in nuke (Zblur is a gaussian and that’s not what I want). Any idea to replace the fritschluft?

Couple of Q’s on an HP build

Hey Everyone,

I’m starting to get into 3d and visual effects and have decided to get a new HP. I’ll mainly be using it for Blender, photoshop, after effects, the trial version of nuke, and some yet-to-be-determined video editing app. You can see the specs and price below… I just have a few questions:

1. Would it be worth it to upgrade to Windows 7 Pro or Ultimate?

2. I thought DDR3 came in batches of 3 or 6 gigs, so why has HP decided to set the standard at 8? Should I upgrade to 9 or 12 GB?

3. Should I upgrade tthe graphics card to a 1.8GB NVidia Geforce GTX 260 for $150?

4. Anything else I should be concerned about?

Thanks!!
