Nuke Workshop 4 & Applying Effects

Nuke Workshop

March 2017


Within this workshop we learnt about particle effects within Nuke. I see how this can help my project by applying these particle effects to the portal and footage we have filmed. I took notes throughout the workshop as seen below:










After the workshop I decided to apply what I had learnt to my project. I took the footage I had collecting during filming; imported it into Nuke and started the foundations of what will become the final shot.
I started with the over-shoulder shot where the actor would place his arm through the screen. I had to breakdown the shot to develop an understanding on how to apply the necessary effects. I found this difficult as I have never taken the time to understand how to create a visual effect. Visual effects are different from what I have done previously as the focus on both detail and believably.






To tackle this problem I started with fundamentals of the shot, what will be the main actions; I then plan to move onto details such as the portal effect and particles. This way I can focus on how the shot will look, such as timing, then use the details such as the portal to cover mistakes and adjust lighting.

I plan to continue work on the planned shots; I will need time to both understand my intended shot(s) and the software.
