Nuke Studio export one shot with multiple elements

Pipeline Integrations
1

I am working with the SGTK and Nuke Studio for now. Suppose I have some shots named “LSDS_01_0010_E001”, “LSDS_01_0010_E002” and “LSDS_01_0010_E003” which represent 3 elements of the same shot. These are the name of the shots in Nuke studio’s timeline. I wish for all three elements to be exported in the same path but I am using the “{shot}” key to export them meaning they are going in to three different directories. I wish for all of them to be in the same path (meaning they should all go to the “LSDS_01_0010” folder, and in there each element have its own subfolder for the exr files. Also for the nuke script being generated to contain a read for each element in the shot. How can I tell nuke studio to do this? Should I rename the shots so they all have the same name? Please help

Best,
Sergio

Hi @sergiop !

There are probably a few solutions to this, but here is how we do it:
Put each element on a separate track and name the track accordingly (for example we use BG01 for the main plate and EL01, EL02,… For elements) . Then give all the clips the same (shot-)name in the timeline. Now you can export to the same shot folder and can also use the {track} key to separate the clips into separate folders.

Hope that makes sense. :slight_smile:
