In this tutorial, we will talk about the compositing workflow of Blender EXRs inside of NUKE. You will learn the Cycles recipe of re-building your Beauty pass from the rendered Lightpasses (Shaderpasses) and we talk then about using them for Color-Correction and Grading. Also you will learn some important concepts like re-using Node Setups, building your own presets and why Premult- and Un-Premult is so important for Color-Corrections.
If you have questions or topics, which should be added, please let me know.

This tutorial series „Blender for Production“ focuses on Blender as a full Production Suite for (Indie) 3D- & VFX Productions. In these tutorials, I will explain how to work with the different Modules of Blender and how they are connected. I will give you an introduction to the specific functionalities, but also the production context and workflows, which can help you to use Blender in your productions.
