[b]Description[/b]

NK404! The fourth part in Alex's Nuke series on Udemy, this time with a massive 8 hour course about advanced color grading and layering techniques. Take your VFX Compositing to the next level.Why learn from this course?It's easy to learn Nuke nodes, not so much artistic and visual concepts and techniques to build complex composites. This class heavily leans into learning more in depth about the artistic side of color, balance, highlights and shadow, and how to balance them all together. By re-lighting a scene from day to night entirely, you are forced to combine all of these techniques!Not only are you getting an 8 hour class for a bargain price, but you are being taught by an industry professional who knows the proper workflows!Your instructor has worked on feature films such as:Star Wars: The Rise of SkywalkerAvengers: EndgameX-Men ApocalypseThe MandalorianFantastic Beasts and Where to Find them..And many more.What is this class about?Light, color, and combining merge operations in Nuke to re-light a scene!First, what do I need to know entering this course?:1. A basic understanding of Nuke and Nuke's interface (Taught Alex's Udemy class, NK101).2. Knowledege about the basic nodes in nuke, and beginner level color correction concepts (Taught Alex's Udemy class, NK101, and Compositing Photo-real Elements in Nuke).3. Beginner level knowledge on the 3d system in Nuke (Taught Alex's Udemy class, NK202).4. Beginner / intermediate knowledge of CG compositing (Taught Alex's Udemy class, NK303).What skills will I learn?Creating a day to night sceneGradient Re-mapping Techniques in NukeColor Balance and Color SchemeStudying ReferencePhysics of Light and GlossinessStacking Different Merge Operations Highlight stacking TechniquesAdvanced color grading techniques2d and 3d techniques for re-lighting2d and 3d techniques for creating reflectionsCreating and using depth mapsSplitting an image using math operations to control different aspectsGlow stacking techniques, and artistic concepts relatedStructuring a composite and templating assets Lining up and model-building a sceneCreating and layering atmosphere elementsWhat projects do I get to work on in this course?:This course will walk you through my composite of the shot shown in the preview. I have split the class into "practical sessions" as well as "theory" and follow along sections. This ensures you can actually apply what you are learning when we go over techniques, but also follow along in different areas!Who this course is for:Beginners / Intermediate users learning Nuke but already have a foundational understanding of the 2d and 3d system in nukePeople who have already taken NK101, NK202, NK303, Photo-Real Elements -- my previous classesIndividuals looking for a deeper education in Compositing for a bargain priceNote: You will be required to sign up and download the project files if you want to follow along with this class
