The features inside NUKEX add up to deliver a compositing solution which is much more than just the sum of its parts.

NUKEX has all the essential features of NUKE extended with an integrated 3D camera tracker, depth generator, tools for automatic lens distortion correction and FURNACECORE, the nucleus of The Foundry’s Academy Award©-winning FURNACE technology.

NUKEX gives artists greater creative freedom through an integrated workflow, dramatically increasing the efficiency of core compositing tasks. The extended tools within NUKEX allow artists to work efficiently, interactively and in context of the visual effects process – not easy with a separate stand-alone application.

Direct access to the scene and camera geometry provided by the camera tracker can dramatically increase the efficiency and accuracy of core compositing tasks, such as the 3D scene reconstruction, texture re-projection, animated rotoscoping and clean plate generation

FURNACECORE and the automatic lens analysis increase productivity by automating some fo the relatively pedestrian tasks, leaving artists free to concentrate on more creative work – tasks such as wire and rig removal, retiming, noise and grain removal and matching CGI with live action material.
