Nuke "Indie License" For VFX Freelancers

For all our VFX artists working on indie projects (which we strongly encourage), The Foundry have an indie version of their compositing package Nuke.  

The "Nuke Indie" is ideal for Escapees who do freelance gigs and work on small budgets.

2D Compositing Tutorials at Our Vimeo Channel

Our Vimeo channel offers our students online learning to supplement our classroom tuition.  We now have a series of videos on Nuke,  the VFX industry's leading compositing software.

Our online tutorials are intended to complement our classroom studies, allowing students at Escape Studios to recap, or catch up on work they missed, while following a tutorial in their own time.
