buying Fusion?

[jamied]

Hi. We may be buying Fusion and I’ve used it a bit so I’m happy. I thought I check here to see if there are any good reasons to get Nuke instead? It’s for broadcast – TV graphics, compositing, often quick turn-around. We have After Effects too.

Thanks
Jamie

Well it depends on your pipeline. If you are using multichannel exr files, then Nuke would have an advantage. Otherwise I don’t see much difference. Furthermore Nuke is a film tool, not saying it can’t handle broadcast files, but you will find more options for that inside Fusion. The other thing is, that Nuke offers more options for creating fantastic keys. It has the IBK and Primatte included, so if keying is a key part of your job, nuke will give you more.

These are my thoughts 🙂

Thanks for that. It’s kind of what I thought. I’ll bear in mind your comment about keying.
Cheers – Jamie
