R3DS Wrap4D – generate topology from animated textures
R3DS Wrap4D is an extended version of Wrap designed specifically for 4D processing. It takes a sequence of textured 3D scans as an input and produces a sequence of meshes with a consistent topology as an output.
The solution includes 12 new nodes. At the heart of the pipeline is the FacialWrapping node which combines the power of the BlendWrapping node with the results from the lip and eyelid detector. The idea behind the node is to provide a robust result that doesn’t require cleanup.

How ‘Dune’ VFX supervisor Paul Lambert invented the Nuke’s Image Based Keyer
So, what is the IBK keyer? The very non-technical answer to that is that the ‘image- based keyer’ is a proprietary keyer in Nuke that typically deals with classic bluescreen or greenscreen plates (that need keying) by recognizing that these plates do not always have uniform color coverage. We’ve all seen uneven blue and greenscreens; that’s one place where the IBK Keyer can come in handy.

Aputure AL-F7 – dimmable Led Video Light, CRI95+, 3200-9500K
High CRI of ≥95
256 LEDs with 45° beam angle
3200 to 9500K variable color temperature
1 to 100% Stepless Dimming, 1500 Lux Brightness at 3.3′
LCD Info Screen. Powered by an L-series battery, D-Tap, or USB-C
Because the light has a variable color range of 3200 to 9500K, when the light is set to 5500K (daylight balanced) both sets of LEDs are on at full, providing the maximum brightness from this fixture when compared to using the light at 3200 or 9500K.
The LCD screen provides information on the fixture’s output as well as the charge state of the battery. The screen also indicates whether the adjustment knob is controlling brightness or color temperature. To switch from brightness to CCT or CCT to brightness, just apply a short press to the adjustment knob.
The included cold shoe ball joint adapter enables mounting the light to your camera’s accessory shoe via the 1/4″-20 threaded hole on the fixture. In addition, the bottom of the cold shoe foot features a 3/8″-16 threaded hole, and includes a 3/8″-16 to 1/4″-20 reducing bushing.
