IBK stacking is so 2014. We have been doing it wrong! Meet the alpha filler.

Turn on the English subtitles:

Many artists using Nuke Indie, including my students on Nuke Non-Commercial, had trouble running DasGrain because of the Python limitations of these versions of Nuke. I fixed that.

With the blessing of DasGrain creator Fabian Holtz, I present DasGrain Indie on GitHub, which lets you run DasGrain inside Nuke Indie and Nuke Non-Commercial.

PS: The Voronoi trick is no longer needed. Shortly after The Foundry enabled BlinkScripts on Indie and Non-Commercial, you could skip “Step 1b” and use the original Voronoi scatter.

Today I am launching a new project: Borgo.tv Training, an online platform for teaching digital compositing in Brazilian Portuguese. Nuke 101 (Basic), Nuke 201 (Intermediate), and Nuke 301 (Advanced) are available. Each course runs for eight weeks and includes streamable videos to watch at your own pace, weekly assignments that I review individually by video, and weekly live sessions for questions, discussion of the professional market, and meeting other students.
