An_pi 0 Posted September 9 Hi. Is COP's a realistic alternative to NUKE, in case of color grading, and editing passes? Is it possible to create the same quality of output in about the same time, if the artist have about the same hours of learning NUKE vs COP'S (If the artist already know Houdini's others operator levels) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
malexander 389 Posted September 9 No, Nuke is a much more complete solution. COPs is a bit outdated. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StepbyStepVFX 93 Posted September 9 By the way, if you want to do color grading and editing, DaVinci Resolve is a really nice tool. Nuke is really made for compositing, matchmoving, keying... very versatile, but DaVinci is really oriented toward grading and editing (though, I never tried Nuke Studio... only used NukeX). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
j00ey 38 Posted September 10 There are things you can do in COPs very easily that are a real headache in Nuke and also many things you can't do at all I think, but I've been bitten a few times by relying on it and it then bugging out on me at the last minute. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
An_pi 0 Posted September 12 I was digging around and found "Natron", which seems to have the functionalities I need, and it's open source <3 Thanks for your replies Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
