Comfy is great for experimentation, but it wasn't built for a 200-artist show. Foundry's pitch for Griptape: a stable, safe pipeline backbone that actually plugs into Nuke and Katana. The distinction matters once you're past the prototype stage.

SparkFX Previewer v2.0.0 (coming soon) → VFX, Projectiles, Audio, and camera shake synced → All directly in-editor → No Play mode Big update in this version: a brand new UI pass inspired by Niagara, cleaner, faster, and way more focused for artists. Starting to feel like something I’d use daily. Check it out at the FAB store https://lnkd.in/gthtkapK #UnrealEngine #RealtimeVFX #GameDev

Changing the environment around a moving vehicle without letting AI touch the road or the car is harder than it sounds. We isolated the product in Nuke, built the new environment in Luma from a single frame, and used the original footage to drive the motion transfer. The final comp brought everything back together, matching the plate through lens distortion, chromatic aberration and grain. Full R&D breakdown for TK Studios

The granular control to fine-tune and stack color selections is exactly what compositors need in a fast-paced pipeline — this Qualifier tool hits all the right marks! Great to see Nuke workflows getting this level of refinement.

Distortion Grids Database is a structured library built for real post-production workflows. It includes: - distortion grids - ready-made lens presets - LensDistortion nodes for Nuke - 3DEqualizer project files Upload assets → receive ratings, discounts, and a reason to keep building value for the whole community. Our goal is to turn lens data from a one-time production cost into a reusable production resource — making matchmove and VFX workflows more reliable, faster, and easier to run. Enjoy! And Have a Good Solve! #Matchmove #3DTracking #CameraTracking #VFX #CGI #VisualEffects #FilmProduction #MatchmoveArtist #MotionTracking #VFXCommunity
