Keying

Nuke Keying Breakdown from Ricky Martinez on Vimeo.



Composited this very challenging assignment in Nuke.

I was the visual effects supervisor (And Co-Screenwriter) on a student science fiction film titled 'Beyond Lies the Wub' based on the short story by Philip K. Dick (Bladerunner, Minority Report).

Originally I comped the footage in After Effects very hastily and was never satisfied with the final product.

I decided to use this as a challenge in my Nuke training as I not only had to key the greenscreen, but garbage matte the tracking markers and track the background.

Overall it was a very arduous yet rewarding process. I was able to pull a clean key (after several keylight tweaks) apply a lens flare effect and add kodak Film Grain to the background to match the original footage. A lot of work!
