Thanks for your kind words! I'm glad you find the tutorials helpful. Your support motivates me to keep improving.

it's definitely worth the switch in the long run. I used after effects before, a lot of concepts will transfer over!

@@CompositingAcademy Thanks for your reply. Yeah, 100%! no doubt! I die to see one day I'm working with Nuke smoothly. But it's something between me and node based programs TBH. I may need to talk a therapist for it :D

@@jokerarthas42 I was the like you and now, when I try to learn a software which is not node based, it's painfull because nodes are really intuitive in fact

@@nihilusedit1447 wow, I'd like to know how you could change like that. what's your secret my friend? :)

Hey! Thank you. Yep that should be coming in the next week or two, I have pre-recorded some tutorials already so one will release per week

Hey there, this is just a geometry that the app creates. Polycam will create a .fbx or .obj file, and you can load this file into nuke using a Readgeo node. It was then manually lined up using a TransformGeo against the Cameratrack point cloud to make it match the scene.

I think you would use the point cloud that the tracker generates and line it up with the geometry on the lidar scan

Once you do your camera tracker you use your points (iuser tracked, I believe you can use the auto tracked points but idk) and link them to a vertex (right click (i think) -> user tracks -> and snap to vertex selection. you do this a couple times in different areas and it should be aligned fairly well if your lidar is accurate, you may need to adjust the x and y on your user track to shift it if its slightly off, sorry if this is slightly incorrect i dont have nuke infront of me atm. I prefer to do this in 3dequalizer tho, I think nukes 3d system is a little odd for me. I really like VFX tutors tutorial on matchmoving it pretty much achieves the exact same result the video is called "3DEqualizer Free PLE version Tutorial - Create a Matchmove Reel For FREE Pt.4"

Pretty much what the other commenters said! I just lined it up by eye to the camera's point cloud. It's not completely perfect doing it this way, but it works. There is another way by using User tracks imported into the camera tracker, and you can pin features to geometry vertices, this article explains it: learn.foundry.com/nuke/content/comp_environment/cameratracker/3d_survey_points.html I haven't personally had to do this process in a very long time, usually with super detailed & tight tracks a Matchmove artist will do this process in Syntheyes or 3D Equalizer as those tools have really detailed ways of achieving super tight tracks. Working on films if a lidar scan was taken, before it comes to you usually a matchmove artist will line up the lidar for the compositors for the whole sequence, so the compositors will just load it in for whatever shot they're working on. Film lidar scanners are much more detailed than the iphone one, sometimes down to millimeter accuracy. In smaller studios, you might have to do this process yourself, but if it's a commercial studio having lidar in the first place might be rare unless the visual effects supervisor took the time to capture one. If it's a more complex shaped set they might take it, but it depends on the budget and time they had, etc. Even just lining it up manually though is a great thing to have for your own projects though. When I do my own projects I usually go around and capture whatever scene measurements with a measuring tape / lidar / HDR spheres, lens grid, etc - all the stuff a visual effects supervisor would capture on a film shoot. The more data you have later, it makes it easier to put CG stuff in and make sure it's all the right size / lighting / lens distortion.

Yep exactly, you can just use the mix control on a merge node to fade it on or off, or you can use a dissolve node if you want to blend between two different images on the same layer

Yep , will have that coming soon, already recorded! Aiming to post one full tutorial a week.

I guess what you are looking for is the wireframe shader. If you mean the dots, then try to generate particles with the object as source + spread and velocity set to 0 Alex' video can be watched nevertheless when its out :D

Hm yeah you might be right. I was reading at it as more just dead grass or darker patches of grass mixed in, but probably could use a slight brighten anyway since it’s supposed to be flatter as well
