Week 16: Mastronauts - Compositing Test


The festivities may have ended a while back, but the testing continues...

A bit bored of tracking, and really wanting to try my hand at Nuke, I decided to try a compositing test. It was suggested to me that I should try this simple Digital Tutors project as it really touches on a lot of compositing elements I will most definitely encounter in the production of our short film.





Again, using the student version of nuke (hence the watermark), I followed the tutorial to get to grips with nodal-based compositing.

The tutorial touched on subjects such as:
Tracking, rotoscoping, colour-correction, roto-painting, lens flare and simulating depth of field for example and I was looking at these basic compositing processes through node graphs/trees. It is, once you start getting used to it, a very organic way of working....however I feel once the graphs/trees start getting quite busy and the compositing becomes more intense, that the process will be a lot more complicated.
