Free Nuke Scripts and Plates: Step-by-Step Bluescreen Keying Shot (48 frames)
Preview from the original source by 48 frames (Andrew Savinskiy)

Overview

Andrew Savinskiy of 48 frames shares the Nuke script from his video in which he takes a shot with a bluescreen background and walks through how he keyed it step by step. The breakdown covers denoising the footage, color management, compression, a first, second and third split of the key, edges, a new background and adjustments for the background.

The Dropbox folder contains five versions of the comp script (ntcis_0040_comp_v001-v005.nk) together with the source plates as .mov files, a denoised EXR plate sequence, a defocused background precomp and a review comp. It is a free Dropbox download with no sign-up; the whole folder is about 4.3 GB as a zip.
