🤝 Python and PySide are a powerful duo! Learning Python allows us to automate our process and save time, while mastering PySide creates accessible UIs. Python and PySide are both integrated in almost every DCC (Maya, 3ds Max, Nuke, Houdini, Katana, Blender, ...) which means With Python and PySide we can automate any DCC.

🆕 BIG UPDATE: PySide for Python for Maya & Nuke I've just added 1 hour of additional footage for Python for Maya and Nuke teaching how to create UIs with PySide. Now all Python masterclasses share an understanding of PySide while Python for Maya and Nuke still have the option to use the simpler native UI. It's a basic PySide introduction, we'll dive deeper into PySide in Python Advanced.

What is the most important human/soft skill? An essential part of "making it" in the industry is making connections and creating opportunities for yourself. Hard skills are an important platform, but soft skills are the ones that really get you that promotion or professional opportunity.

Delighted to share that I've completed the Python for Nuke Masterclass by Alexander Richter and received my certification. This course has helped me tremendously in learning Python and applying it in Nuke and various VFX workflows. Alex takes you through Python programming step-by-step, explaining everything clearly and systematically. Before long, you'll notice that you are already writing code in Python.

Let's look at Machine Learning in Nuke for Compositor:

Breaking into the visual effects, animation and video games industry can be a daunting task. My guest today is Simon Devereux (He, Him), Director of Global Talent Development at Framestore and founder of ACCESS: VFX: https://lnkd.in/eb7X66xw

Ever felt buried under a mountain of repetitive tasks and wished for a miracle to streamline your workflow? In the fast-paced world of 3D animation, this frustration is all too familiar to many artists. Imagine having to manually update hundreds of models, textures, shaders, rigs, cloth sims, alembic caches and dynamics across multiple projects; a time-consuming and error-prone process. What if you could turn these tedious tasks into automated processes? Learn why Python is the solution:

Foundry's Nuke is the primary compositing tool for most visual effects and animation projects. If your goal is to become an established compositor or Comp TD, this cohort is for you.

USD Pixar Animation Studios has layers to add and overwrite from different departments while building our assets and shots (similar to Photoshop layers). Another benefit of being a universal scene description is that USD can be used in all supporting DCCs while layers allow different departments from different software packages to create the same scene.
