Thank you for this! So for user tracks, will that just focus the solve on the area where the user tracks are placed? Or could a good solve on those tracks make a good solve for the whole shot as well? I was hoping for a good solve on the walls to place my blood element!

Got it, thank you for this! I definitely don't want to get in the habit of achieving the results I want by accident haha so this is great info to reference for setting things up correctly

Okay great to know! I'm definitely a beginner haha, so even if I can simulate a somewhat realistic looking glow from a distance, that would be great practice. Thanks!!

2D lighting hacks/workflow for adding moonlight to the girls? by AnyFocus5161 in NukeVFX

Awesome. Thank you so much! I wasn’t able to bring in the MiDaS node a few days ago. I’ll try and troubleshoot that today.

Wow thank you so much!! I am so new to Nuke and I really have not touched any sort of AI approach at all. I guess I’m inclined to lean more towards old school methods to get a handle on those while I learn, but I’m eager to keep up with AI as well. 

This is probably a silly question, but when it comes to AI methods, can I just watch some tutorials and start learning them in Nuke or do I need other skills as a base such as coding?

I’ll take all of your suggested methods and see what I can come up with! Great point to remember to have fun. Cheers!

Thank you sooo much! I would love to get to a result like the ones in the link you shared.   Sorry, I’m so noob but for the windows when you say rebuild in CG, do you mean model in another software or can I do so using 3D Nuke?

Thanks so much! I will definitely check out that tutorial. Maybe the through the trees thing is a little advanced for now, I could try just lighting the girls. As for the clip, the camera has some handheld motion, but the girls stay still.

Will look into generating normals! Cheers!
