Focused certification, not a placement-track programme
This is a single-tool certification, not MAAC's full career programme. If you want the complete studio pipeline for Visual Effects instead, the full course covers it — with placement assistance and scheme eligibility this short course doesn't carry.
Where this is used in the industry
Nuke is the node-based compositing standard at nearly every feature-film and high-end streaming VFX vendor globally — it is the single most requested named tool in senior compositing job postings in India's VFX hiring market.
Senior compositing is consistently one of the most understaffed roles relative to demand in the Indian VFX industry, because most entry-level training stops at layer-based tools rather than Nuke's node graph.
What you'll learn
- Node-based compositing fundamentals and Nuke's graph structure
- Advanced keying, rotoscopy and paint work for difficult plates
- Camera tracking and matchmoving with Mocha Pro
- Multi-pass CG integration and colour matching
- Building a shot from raw plates to a finished, graded composite
Software toolkit
