Re: Compositing app choice

[Perry Harovas]

Nuke all the way. 
I use AE when I must but hate it for 32bit. 
Color management is a joke in AE, exr files crash the system and run out of 
memory using the ancient plugin which is more of a hack than any real type of 
workflow. 

AE is good for motion graphics, but anything serious in film world, don't 
settle for anything other than Nuke ( or Fusion if you don't need certain 
things).

Really. You will regret it.

The AE team did a lot this year but still, they get the 32b workflow wrong,
stay out of it for real comp work.

Maybe the custom tool in fusion might be interesting for you, you can do a
lot of per pixel operations.

Re: Compositing app choice

[Francisco Criado]

I would recommend Assimilate Scratch, if you are freelance, you can rent a
license for a month for 75 dollars, and its not only useful for comping but
also for grading, editing and delivery. If you are doing a VR project, you
can use the software with your Oculus to work on it.

Re: Compositing app choice

[Orlando Esponda]

Fusion + Resolve it's a great combo IMHO. Yes,  fusion lacks on deep
compositing tools,  but for anything else,  still my compo app. For the
kind of comp work I usually need,  I find it much faster than Nuke.

But to be honest,  I have evaluated more than once acquiring a Nuke
license. Hard to justify cost when you're freelancer, and that's the main
reason why I keep working with Fusion.

Re: Compositing app choice

[peter_b]

Fusion used to be industry standard, from when apple bought Shake to when Nuke 
became user friendly, say ~2005 to 2010?
It sort of got overlooked due to Nuke’s omnipresence and better performance and 
handling, but they silently kept going, overcoming their shortcomings and 
regaining some of their former popularity.
Do check the free version, it might be all you need – if so, it’s a great 
choice to have.

Just to echo.

Nuke if you can afford the licenses, otherwise fusion is very good.

Nuke is the most used, and it's not hard to find freelancers for it.
It became the industry 'standard' at some point.
But depending on your budget, I would have a look at Fusion as well.

Both apps have their strengths and weaknesses I guess.

Pretty much, there is always fusion if you want a similar workflow for a
lot less money.
