Free Nuke Scripts and Plates: 7 Tips to Key a Green Screen Like a Pro (48 frames)
Original title: 7 Tips to Key a GREENSCREEN Like a PRO
Overview
Andrew Savinskiy of 48 frames shares the Nuke scripts and source materials of the green screen shot from his video on how the keying process is handled in major visual effects studios. The video covers denoising the plate, RAW recording for keying, the main principle of a good key, working with core and edges, a clean plate for the keying, a third image split, working with the background and the final look, and the techniques apply to both green and blue screens.
The Dropbox folder holds four versions of the comp script (ep08_0110_comp_v001-v004.nk), EXR source plates in default and denoised versions, precomps, review comps and before/after reference movies. It is a free Dropbox download with no sign-up; the whole folder is about 11.9 GB as a zip.
