Hello, I'm Laura with digital-tutors.

In this series of tutorials,

we will go through the basics of what you need to know when

getting started with the rotoscoping in NUKE.

We'll start by simply learning how to draw a rotoscope with a roto

node and how to use the tools that the node offers.

Once we have a basic idea of drawing and editing rotoshapes,

we learn how to animate the rotoscopes to get the full picture of how these

powerful masks can be implemented into your NUKE workflow.

After we've practiced with animating the shapes,

we'll move on to some more complex situations you

may encounter when rotoscoping.

And also some tips to help you save time during

this sometimes repetitive process.

We finish out by learning how to use a rotoscope with another piece

of footage and how to output the rotoscope as an alpha channel to be

used later or to speed up your workflow.

This course is for you if you are ready to learn one of the

most valuable compositing techniques and master a skill that

every NUKE user has to know.

By the end of this course,

you'll be familiar with the best ways to draw rotoscope for fast

animation and be ready to use a rotoscope with other footage in

any project you want to tackle.
