worked with him a couple of times (i comped the 2 shots from 2:11-2:16).
he's a good dude and a very talented guy.

The thing that stands out to me (i see this a lot in student reels) is the reflections of the car.
Try to dial them down a bit, and try to match the cars in the plate a little bit better.

He's going on a youth mobility visa, so he wouldn't have to worry about being sponsored :)

1) I'd start applying now, and if they're looking for people before you arrive in the UK, you can always contact them later.
At least you'll have someone to contact other than the generic email :)

When are you going?
From what I've heard, it's going to ramp up again in London from about oct/nov.
Just start applying to all the companies.
Good luck!
:)

Assuming the reel would be used for getting a job, would anyone really care about seeing the stereo version?
I'd just label it as a stereo shot.

I always do it in seperate nodes with a merge set to stencil.
You could always set the color of your shape to black btw.

Awesome!
Framestore i presume? :)

cool to see your progression dude :)

If your shot is long enough, and has points that are visible at the start, middle and end, I usually get pretty good results (if the camera track is good) with PointsTo3D.

Have you got a write node open somewhere, with a filename like Cleanframe.exr?
Change it to Cleanframe.%04d.exr or Cleanframe.####.exr

I find i get much better results with mocha.
I think because mocha will try to track an entire pattern/patch, whereas Nuke will still use feature matching (like the camera tracker).
I also find the...

I always keep a nuke script somewhere with gizmos i made, but I have them copied as groups, so you can just copy paste them into your script, and they'll render just fine on the farm (because it's a...

There's also this gizmo from nukepedia, that uses motion vectors driven by a matte input:

didnt you have a breakdown of those drag me to hell shots in one of your old reels?
i can vaguely remember something about that.

Cool stuff, although the last couple of shots don't really add anything to the reel imho, but other than that...good job :)

senate vfx
nvizible
lipsync

are a couple that spring to mind in London

Are you unpremultiplying your CG?
You'll probably also want to unpremultiply your rgb matte pass to grade your unpremultiplied CG, so you don't get funny edges.

is what he's talking about i think

Isn't the US doing a similar thing with subsidies for sectors like the agriculture and the steel industry.
If so, they're never going to take action, because they'd have to look at their own tax...

check that out, for some cool cheats for building crowds...

Mostly you use geo for projections, but you can also do texturing, animation, shading, lighting, all in nuke.
You can use geo for locators, projection mapping, projecting roto on there etc etc
You...

It all depends really.
Some companies the Compositor will do everything on the shot.
From Cleanup to roto to final comp.
You might have to camera track your own shot, set up projections etc etc....

I like star wipe!

how many different comps do I work on in a day?
or how many comps do i finish in a days time?

all depends on the show, on the shot etc.
I've worked on a shot for almost a year on Narnia (on and...
