3:11, actually there's a hotkey to connect multiple nodes at once. First, select all the cards then 'shift' select the scene node, then press 'shift Y' . It will connect all the cards to the scene node. Anyway , thanks for the tutorial. it's really great!

Probably one of the best tutorials on matte paintings I've personally ever seen. This gives me a great starting point. Thanks so much.

I have been working on Nuke, but never realized the workflow when it comes to Matte Painting. I spent hours playing with positioning and scaling. Thank you for sharing this.

Didn't know about this, very very helpful. Thank you Hugo!

Oh.. Hugo. You are the best. The way you teach is just awesome. Hope to get some knowledge from you on building up a perfect Portfolio. Cheers!!!!

Love your tutorials. This one was especially good due to the way you explained the different processes, advantages and most importantly the reasoning behind it. Very helpful, more enjoyable and easier to follow than most other long drawn out and over complicated tutorials. Please keep up the good work. Thanks

Thank you Hugo for this tutorial - I always wondered what's with those sliders - will use that next time would have to set matte painting. I think that what you should also cover next is neat thingy with projection with crop off. Projecting something with overscan but having 1:1 base image linked with footage. Very useful if camera moves around a bit.

I was entrusted with a couple of matte paintings, for John Carter, 10 or so years ago (my duties at Cinesite were mostly textures and sculpts). I presented them to the DMP lads, with a flourish, only for them to ask me to next ,move on to the Nuke phase. Not my finest hour, I must admit. 😄 So, this is really helpful. Lifelong learning, eh? Thanks, again.

Don't ever use Nuke but this tip is really great! I see you in a recent video The foundry has recently shared! Very inspiring hugo. muito obrigado!

Great dear friend.thanks

I really do appreciate you taking the time to do this tutorial for us. Now suppose a few of the matte painting’s PSD layers had Curve or Levels adjustments. If you delete those Adjustment layers and replace them with the new Premult and Crop nodes, you’ll be losing the adjustments. Would you recommend bringing in layers that have the adjustments already applied, or do you have a way of keeping those adjustment layers from the PSD file? Again thanks very much Hugo!

@8:42 - can this technique of matching the focal length and aperture on card with the camera, be done on Fusion too ?

@1:24 After importing the psd file, my nuke is not showing the psd file layers, only rgb, rgba and alpha. And after breaking out the layers, the shuffles are in none position. Even at there the psd layers are missing. I have tried both 8-bit and 16-bit psd files. can you please help me out? Thanks in advance.

Great tutorial Congratulation. Maybe you could show some animation how the result looks like.. Next time

Thanks for sharing need to get learn more about camera projection.please share the concern link

I have one doubt how will this trick work with the moving camera that is imported from maya? i tried taking a frame hold for projection camera but it didnt work properly so can you tell me a solution to this i need a perfect scale for my matte painting thanks

@HugosDesk

6 жыл бұрын

Well you always start with a static camera to line up everything and then have a second camera to animate. Second camera needs to be from similar angle otherwise the matte breaks. That’s that answer your question? Maybe I misunderstood? Thanks

Great explanation, thank you! So, is this camera going to be the projection camera? Because if I move this camera, the setup breaks, it is not attached to the cards. Are you gonna ad a "Shot camera" now? Thanks again!

@aaronbradford4569

3 жыл бұрын

You can connect the card's attributes to the camera and it should work if you move the camera or import camera that's not at 0,0,0.

i am vivek goswami ..you are amazing sir

odd question. have you ever found images popping from infront to behind or disappearing for a few frames when you render from the 3D projections? i had this during major and I couldnt work out why it was happening. I thought maybe my cards were overlapping or couldnt be seen in the camera move, but that wasnt it. I couldnt find any animation on anything. so just ended up flattening the image to meet the deadline as the paralax was minimal. Still have no idea why my moon kept disappearing... also super helpful tut as always =)

Hugo's Desk Yeah I did. I initally thought that was the issue, I suppose its still possible there was a stray key somewhere but I couldnt find it. I even moved the card further forward to make sure. :/ The mysteries of computers I guess :')

I'm still confused in what camera setting to use......if your making a custom matte painting....is there a formula or aspect ratio.....how do you go about this....????

HUGO....HOW do I determine the FILM BACK preset from a custom Matte Painting....ANY 1 please...

Hi! Thanks for that tip! Didn't know that. But why not to use Project3D node that will do almost the same job?

@HugosDesk

7 жыл бұрын

Well the project 3D is more suitable for projection with geometry. I use the Cards as a first setup. like I said in the video. This setup is the first step to make a more complex projection using geometry. At some point you end up removing the cards as you build the projection up.You know what i mean?

@user-kx7oi9if6j

7 жыл бұрын

Yeah! Thanks for answer!

Can anyone implement this technique in After effects

if you don't need actually modeled 3d Geo would you just leave it like this instead of using the 3d project node? which one would actually render faster? also, I've always painted in 16 bit since it's supposed to hold more data for future grading, but is it that much noticeable and is it really worth making it a bigger file with 16bit..? one last thing, what's faster in nuke, matte painting psd, tiff, or converting it to exr out of Photoshop? thanks! :)

@HugosDesk

7 жыл бұрын

+Jordan Lipstock Really depends what you need to make and how much parallax you need. Geometry projection is slower then a card because of the amount of Geo. but cards are very limited if you have a complex camera move. Regarding the 16bit, Nuke only takes advantage of it if you don't bake the colour space otherwise it will clamp the images. So a Linear EXR is advised. From experience using PSD is easier and more convenient because the "breakout layer" works most of the time. So I would keep PSD. But make sure they are simple, labeled and without any "fancy" layers Effects. Hope that answered your question. Thanks

11:55 For more rapid automation with things like Backgroundnode21~Backgroundnode33 is there a way to do an expression with growing numbers? _For the z-depth in nuke so each progressive card is less distance than the max, that way all you have to do is tune the backplates position when your just doing a rough first pass_ So pseudo code for Backgroundnode22 : _ =Backgroundnode21.Z-100 _, but for _Backgroundnode23_ and up you'd need the subtractor to grow. Or is there some way to get the sequence index of the current backgroundnode somehow _ =Backgroundnode21.Z-((currentbackgroundnodessuffix-21)*100)) _
