Exporting Sequences and Track Items

1.   Select an entire sequence in the bin view, or track items in the timeline, and navigate to File > Export...

The Export dialog displays.

2.   Select Process as Shots from the Export list.
3.   Select the Basic Nuke Shot preset under Local Presets to auto-complete the shot template or select Project Shot Template to use the Project Settings template.

NOTE:  You can build a custom shot template using Path tokens, the Contents field, and the folder and +/- buttons. Simply copy an existing template and edit as required.

Basic Nuke Shot creates a folder for each clip, or shot, containing nuke, script, and renders folders.

The tokens in the Basic Nuke Shot template break down as follows:

{shot} simply extracts the track item names as they appear in the timeline.

{shot}_comp{_nameindex}_{version}.nk extracts the track item name for each clip and the version selected in the Tracks and Handles controls. For example, Shot01_comp_v03.nk

{shot}_comp{_nameindex}_{version}.####.{ext} appends padding and the specified file extension. For example, Shot01_comp_v03.0001.dpx

NOTE:  The {_nameindex} token is included to avoid conflicts with non-unique shot names.

4.   Enter the Export To directory or click Choose... and browse to the location.

The Export To directory is the starting point from which the shot template builds your shot hierarchy.

5.   Proceed toNuke Project File Settings to determine the Nuke script's behavior.
