BSA227, Nuke v. After Effects for layer separation for compositing post Maya? 5 October, 2016
After Effects
import original rendered footage from Maya. Everything was given Mila material in Maya, which has 5 popular options that can be selected and messed with in Maya. If you want to keep tweaking it once it's been added to live footage, you can separate the layers and manipulate each one in AE. ctrl D master layer and name next one direct diffuse. dupe again and name indirect fuse and change to add mode. Repeat for glossy, ind glossy, and finally ambient. Then fool around with each layer. I guess. We went through this quick today but will get more instruction in advanced animation next year.
Nuke
In Nuke, it's all elbows and shuffle and merge nodes to get things going. elbows can be called up by hitting the period key, and the nodes are summoned by clicking off into the void with the mouse and then TAB and typing in the node you're searching for. And the final node is the view node. I haven't tried doing anything significant outside of class in Nuke, so I don't know how easy it would be. I do like connecting the blocks....
