This tool can be very beneficial to Matchmovers - LookDev/Lighting - Compositing. It extracts most of the data you need like Focal Length, Focus Distance, Fstop etc..
You can synch a full take on disk with a Read node inside Nuke and extract the static data as well as animated just for the duration of the plate.
Installation:
- Copy entire folder to HOME/.nuke/
- Add this line to your init.py :
nuke.pluginAddPath('./mS_ARRI_MetaExtract')
Usage:
- If a read node is selected then it will attempt to extract locally from the Read's metadata.
- If nothing is selected then a prompt will pop up to let you choose a file on disk to extract the data from. (Recommended mode for full metadata).
Supported files:
ARI - MXF - MOV - EXR - DPX - CSV
