Colorfront Engine for Nuke is fully-ACES compliant, and contains a library of looks, based on traditional film characteristics and specialized synthetically based looks, which can be blended together.

The range of plug-ins within Colorfront Engine for Nuke features Colorfront’s renowned ARRIRAW deBayering, which provides the highest-quality demosaicing on the market for all ARRI Alexa cameras, as well as ASA, tint, color temperature and sharpening adjustment options, helping to improve the quality of greenscreen and bluescreen shots and simplify the VFX compositing process.Īlso included are colorspace conversion tools, creative primary and sector color grading tools, with grain and skintone enhancement, plus an Ultrascaler to support image resizing. This tight integration also offers a range of CPU and GPU-accelerated processing options to leverage the best possible hardware performance. All of the tools are easy to access using Nuke's familiar node-based user-interface, and all parameters can be manipulated, animated and scripted to support a more complex VFX creation. In practice, VFX artists can import the entire processing pipeline from Colorfront Express Dailies, On-Set Dailies and Transkoder systems, and apply the associated image-processing and color transform metadata to RAW materials within Nuke.Ĭolorfront has worked closely with The Foundry to natively implement Colorfront Engine for Nuke via the Foundry’s Blink API. This simple, effective bi-directional workflow is facilitated by Colorfront Express Metadata (EMD) files, containing metadata and color grades, which are easily exported/imported from Colorfront dailies and transcoding systems into Nuke scenes and vice versa. VFX artists can, if necessary, make adjustments, or create brand new looks, using a set of powerful image and color processing plug-ins within Colorfront Engine for Nuke, and round-trip the associated metadata to production and editorial without needing to render media.
