Continuing the “Tips and Tricks for Nuke” series, Hugo Léveillé builds upon the previous courses, showing useful production tricks that you can apply in your scripts. These tips are as short as 5 minutes to some over 45 minutes and are aimed to help you in your everyday compositing. We think this is going to be an incredibly popular series to help you take your skills to the next level.

Hugo Léveillé is currently head of compositing at Mels studios in Montreal. With over 10 years of VFX experiences, he also shares his work time by creating and integrating pipeline tools for Nuke.

We take a look on how to cast 3d shadows from alpha channels using 2 different approaches.

We reproduce the effects from scratch of character jumping into a frozen instance of himself.
