Hi everyone, my name is Patrick Krebs,

and welcome to my course: the Fundamentals of NUKE.

I'm the supervising producer of Teenage Mutant Ninja

Turtles at Nickelodeon Animation Studios.

NUKE is the standard of the entertainment industry that's used on

everything from feature films to commercials.

It's the most powerful compositing package on the market,

and the foundry has a trial version available to

download for free on their website.

This course is a comprehensive introduction to NUKE for beginners.

If you've never touched NUKE before, but you want to learn,

this is the course for you.

Even compositing veterans will find a few tips and

tricks I've discovered along the way, and shared in this course.

Some of the major topics that we'll cover include an introduction to nodes,

color correcting using comparison wipes,

animating with curves in the Curve Editor,

and finally, we'll build our own comp by creating some simple 3D assets in NUKE.

By the end of this course,

you will have a solid understanding of the fundamentals of NUKE,

and you'll be ready to create composites of your own.

Once this course is complete,

you should feel comfortable diving into other compositing courses on your own.

Courses like Green Screen King Fundamentals,

with Melissa Best, Rig Removal in NUKE, by Ognian Bozihov,

or Creating a Live Action Composite from various elements of NUKE,

with Sean Amlaner.

I hope you'll join me on this journey to learn node-based

compositing with the Fundamentals of NUKE course,

at Pluralsight.
