Creative software developer The Foundry announced a revamp of its NUKE technology with the November release of NUKE 9 and a new addition of NUKE STUDIO. The offering brings powerful node-based VFX, editorial and finishing into a new single studio application, as well as provides core upgrades to the advanced compositing workflows of NUKE and NUKEX.
NUKE STUDIO empowers creative individuals working independently, as well as collaborative teams working on quick-turnaround projects, in a way thats previously never been possible. Users can run a whole project from a single desktop, even while sitting with a client, and use NUKE STUDIOs collaborative controls to share work with a wider team and manage this from a central integrated location.
Specific exclusive features of NUKE STUDIO include:
Complete online-editing toolkit
In-timeline real-time effects
Fluid end-to-end workflow
Powerful collaborative control
Real-time 4K playback
Intelligent built-in rendering
From release, NUKE STUDIO joins MARI and MODO in the PRODUCTION COLLECTIVE, providing an affordable way to access a comprehensive toolset - ideal for multi- faceted artists.
In addition to NUKE STUDIO, NUKE 9 brings high level performance and feature updates to the compositing system present across the entire NUKE range. These include a Native Flipbook tool for NUKE and NUKEX; huge performance improvements that cover not only overall NUKE performance but specifically the EXR reader, Deep EXR reader, Particle system and Scanline renderer; enhanced 2D format support; and cutting edge retiming updates.
NUKEX and NUKE STUDIO also include an overhaul to the Planar Tracker, to include a new region tracking algorithm; and significant updates to the Vector Generator, Motion Blur and KRONOS tools, with the addition of a new motion estimation algorithm based on OCULA technology.
Jon Wadelton, NUKE product manager at The Foundry comments: This release, our most ambitious to date, addresses input from artists working in ever-evolving, increasingly demanding environments. Artists working with NUKE and NUKEX will see the major improvements to performance as well as a wide range of feature updates and innovative new technology. And now, with NUKE STUDIO, artists can conform, edit, colour-correct, add effects and playback at 4K - essentially run a whole project from a single desktop and even sit with a client while doing it.
Philippa Carroll, NUKE product marketing manager at The Foundry adds: NUKE 9 is an amazing release for everyone. Weve not only listened to what the market wants on a technical level, but the softer requirements as well. Therefore, in addition to bringing a powerful, flexible and modern new range of products to market, weve identified ways to make NUKE more accessible than ever before. So whatever your line of VFX work and regardless of team size, were confident we now have a NUKE or combination of NUKE products to suit your needs.
