Nuke has amazing camera tracking and matte tracking capabilities, which ultimately make removing unwanted scene elements a breeze. Camera tracks, lighting rigs, all can be painted out with ease. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Extremely steep learning curve. If you're comfortable with software like Adobe After Effects, you'll have a head start here, but even as an advanced user, Nuke has a lot to offer that might be daunting at first glance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Tracking and stabalizing shots, merging multiple takes, and masking out scene elements are all within Nuke's wheelhouse and gives our post-production workflow a much needed efficiency boosy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"nuke is the best composite program in industry"

5/5

What do you like best about Nuke?

the complete exposure system and advanced integrated tools Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nuke?

the camera tools and some of the UI elements Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Nuke:

Yes, Nuke is the best composite tool in production and 3D projecting tool. I recommend The Foundry Nuke. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Nuke solving and how is that benefiting you?

Most of the time, I create the primary composite for the main shoot in production, then let the compositors handle everything in the same way. I found that NUKE is the best tool for this because you can easily share the script and enhance the shoot using grading tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
