Gaussian Splatting for Nuke effects

Documentations / Gaussian Splatting for Nuke

Effects

General idea of effects is very simple. Effects have a shape(spherical or box) with position and size. And a Ramp with an amplitude. This Ramp is projected on a model from the center of the Effect Shape to its radius. Then Ramp is multiplied with main effects parameters.

In this sample you can see the splat size is multiplied with Ramp.

To be able to edit Ramp and Gradient you need to turn on Edit Gradient and Edit Ramp.

In this sample Ramp is affecting the alpha channel of Gradient.

You can apply a Noise Distortion with the same technique. Noise amplitude is multiplied with Noise Ramp so you can make more noise outside and no noise inside. Noise can be animated with Noise Evolution parameters.

In this scene Noise Effect is combined with Scale Effect.
