i use this node education parpose - Francois Leduc on FrameBlendMerge:
You could also use a TimeEcho node. There’s no Min mode, but to fix that, apply a Invert Node to your source, plug TimeEcho (in Max method) and apply another Invert node after. Go at the end of your timeline, change the “Frames to look at” to the number of frames or your shot (or less) and you should get your clean plate. Of course all of this is done on a stabilized shot. - Richard Frazer on Colour Smear for Nuke (UPDATE v2.0):
Hi Josh. Thanks for the feedback. You have correctly discovered that this tool works best when you have a solid core for a matte with a feathered edge. Where it fails is if you have large areas that just have semi transparent alpha (such as your grimy window). I’d approach this by separating your actor with a rough roto and using the colour smear to deal with their edges. Then for the smudges maybe try extracting the green channel and using using it to drive a grade for your background, or... - Josh Northeast on Colour Smear for Nuke (UPDATE v2.0):
Hey Richard! Absolutely love the tool. Saved my ass alot. I’m working with some greenscreen plates where there is a smudgy window behind the actor and a greenscreen behind that. We need to preserve the smudges on the window but that means it’s hard to use your tool to treat the edges because the alpha isn’t clean. Any tips? Cheers, Josh - Matt on Keyframe Reduction script for Nuke:
Nice! Just used this on a projection/stabilization job and it worked great to simplify the original camera keyframes and smooth out the reprojected shot. Thanks!

Behind the scenes of The Last Kingdom and Jamestown
November 03, 2019
Sometimes whilst on set, I’ll get hauled in front of a camera and interviewed about the VFX that we are shooting that day. I’m never entirely sure where this promotional / behind the scenes footage will end up.
I found out recently that I ended up on the DVD extras for Jamestown and The Last Kingdom, trying to talk coherently about VFX after what was probably a very long day!
