if anyone is curious, this is the rigging video i made a while back during houly for @PaulEsteves just to show him how to get a quick setup, crash course thing. nothing advanced but if you wanna do characters and dont know how to rig stuff could be helpful. all this stuff is still very useful in 18.5 and will help with doing kfx things https://vimeo.com/437656199/b68159e4a5 <:salute:663867675616870450>

Yep Fusion relies on Viewers – here is fusion comp on how I go about it getting ACES to work when rendering from Houdini / RS if that helps.

I also set up my OCIO variable in my env system so you do not have load it all the time at least in FUsion which is annoying – Also it keep consistency through out the different DCCs.

this should work with all apps that can read OCIO – Houdini/ Maya / Fusion / Nuke – etc

If you see anything wrong – let me know 🍻

nuke not shipping with an autowrite or easy variables is so silly… fwiw the equivs of $HIP, $HIPFILE and $OS respectively are: “`[file dir [value root.name]] [string range [file tail [value root.name]] 0 end-3] [value name]“`

One of NYC’s most prolific on-set TV supes did a presentation at the VES and this was a pdf she gave out – thought some people here might like.

i don’t know that there’s any easy way, color spaces are a bitch and it’s not as simple as “linear workflow” anymore, with ACES and all that. the VES has the best guide I’m aware of here:
