Name, Time Span, and Frame Rate

To set the script name, frame range, and frame rate:

1.   Select Edit > Project Settings, or simply press S over a blank portion of the workspace. The Project settings properties panel appears.

2.   On the Root tab, type a name for the script (say, firstcomp.nk) in the name field. Nuke’s scripts always have the extension .nk.
3.   Type the numbers of the first and last frames in the frame range fields to define length of time for your “shot”.
4.   In the fps field, enter the rate in frames per second (fps) at which you want your script’s Viewers to play back footage. For film-based elements, 24 fps is appropriate.
