The Foundry : HIERO, outil pour le workflow NUKE, mais pas seulement

Hiero

The Foundry a dévoilé, à l’occasion du tradeshow IBC qui se déroule actuellement à Amsterdam, un nouvel outil destiné à enrichir NUKE : HIERO, application destinée à implémenter un workflow collaboratif.
Défini comme un conform management tool pour les VFX, HIERO est un outil timeline scriptable permettant notamment d’éditer des listes de décisions et de gérer des plans, le but étant d’alléger le travail des artistes sur la phase de finishing.
HIERO est pensé pour travailler conjointement avec NUKE, mais peut s’utiliser, via les scripts, avec d’autres applications.

Voici la présentation fournie par The Foundry :

What is HIERO

HIERO is a desktop application for collaborative VFX workflow – a scriptable timeline tool that conforms edit decision lists and parcels out VFX shots to artists, allows progress to be viewed in context, and liberates your finishing systems and artists for more creative tasks.
HIERO has been built to work ‘out of the box’ with NUKE, and can also be custom-scripted to work with other applications in your facility.

Increase Output

Put more jobs through your facility. Easily offload VFX heavy shots from your finishing system to NUKE, and review and version the resultant VFX shots within the context of the edit.
Use your finishing system to do just that. Deliver your reconformed timeline and completed shots to your tool of choice.

Be More Efficient

Significantly reduce the maintenance required to keep your VFX team up and running with pain free distribution, reviewing and shot management.
Track and manage shots & NUKE scripts on your SAN/NAS without pain, saving disk space in the process.
Create per shot NUKE scripts for easy shot allocation and result management.
Conform on a tool built for the job. Fix common issues across multiple shots with ease using HIERO’s session-wide spreadsheet view.

Customise

HIERO is an open platform, which can be customised and integrated into your pipeline via templating and industry standard scripting support.

Work Your Way

HIERO can deliver baked timelines in your preferred formats, EDLs/XMLs referencing a mixture of completed VFX footage and source material, plus footage selects and transcodes.
Copy/sym linking of per shot assets into your facility structure.

 

L’outil est encore loin d’être finalisé, mais une beta est prévue pour l’automne. Pour en faire partie, il faudra remplir un formulaire sur le site de The Foundry.
Notons également que FxGuideTV vient de mettre en ligne une émission spéciale sur le sujet.
