Actually Usable AI Roto (Nuke)

In this video I divulge some trade secrets on how I use MODnet to generate useable mattes inside of Nuke quickly and efficiently!

I also use a crop node to cut out unnecessary parts of image and it also works in unpredictable but some sort of controlable way to adjust modnet result matte

[@user-vb2gm2zu4x]

thank you for sharing! Sometimes, crop and reformat also helps.

Dude what a cool technique I really love it when you can control it with all those effects and it effect the end result Thank you so much

[@magusofthebargain]

Oh dear. Seriously. Start with a neat video denoise, then a 3D track, stabilize, spherical projection, cleanplate, IBK stack to clean up foreground elements. Good trick on the clamp node to get rid of overbright areas. After you have a stabilized cleanplate, matchmove that using another spherical projection setup and then go to town with all your techniques in this video. Using the current AI models from the cattery for roto is like programming 100 4 oz drones to dig a 6' deep grave using teaspoons. It can be done, it just takes time and perserverance. What we really need is an AI model that can give us smaller roto splines that can be edited by a human artist. Reply with your contact info if you are an AI programmer who is serious about developing an entirely new and better AI tracking and roto system.

I am super motivated to try this! Thanks so much!!!

Interesting approach selectively "keying" your source so the analysis works better. Noice noice.

Greate! Tanks!

Does anyone know how to get this to work on Nuke 13.2v8? When I call on the modnet node Nuke just crashes.

[@RorrixPirrorrix]

Nice technique, I try it on the semantic segmentation node but it doesn't work, do you have any idea to improve semantic segmentation node results?

[@snyyx]

Well even at the end it's not a usable matte depending on what you do with it.. I dont think the problem should be fixed in nuke, I think the AI lacks a lot of training

[@robertfletcher8964]

why not just dilate the channel, and then erode it to create a core matte, temporal median seems a bit more trouble than its worth

[@nodesarentscary]

That’s a good idea if there are just small holes near the center of the matte! I like temporal median because it can deal with stuff like entire limbs dropping out for a single frame.

[@nodesarentscary]

Also stacking the temporal medians like I did in the video can reduce edge chatter which you can’t get with just a core matte.

I want to see the GROSS techniques to get rid of the artifacts!!! on the moving things!!!! please!!!! #ILOVENODESARENTSCARY

bro use copycat

[@Exagerardo]

VERY GOOD. TNKS BABY
