In this artist presentation, Thiago Porto, walks through his process for using Nuke's machine learning toolset, specifically CopyCat, to perform preliminary work on a VFX shot. Thiago Porto is VFX Supervisor/Senior Comp Artist at MPC New York.

The shot contains multiple elements that move, change orientation to the lens, as well as variations in luminance and visibility. Most of the heavy lifting in this shot prep can now be done with AI in Nuke, saving you a lot of time.
