Course Description
In this series of NUKE tutorials, we will learn about the physics of light travel inside a real camera lens and how to apply those effects to our own projects in NUKE. We will start by quickly learning about the various pieces and elements in a camera and then learn a little bit about how light physically interacts with various materials through reflection, refraction, and diffraction. From there, we will cover optical problems or aberrations like vignetting, ghosting, lens distortion, field curvature, lens flaring, glowing, astigmatism, defocus, chromatic aberration, and film grain. Software required: NUKE 6.3v6.
