- The full list of features for Nuke 12.1 can be found here. And to demo or purchase Nuke 12.1, visit the Foundry website. Christy Anzelmo, Director of Product – Compositing & Finishing, Foundry, comments: This next release, Nuke 12.1, is a broad and varied one responding to many user requests.
- Foundry has released Nuke 12.1, the latest version of node-based compositing software, revamping the Shuffle node, and making it possible to use companion tool HieroPlayer as a flipbook viewer. NukeX, the extended edition of the software, gets a new Blink-based particle node, more intuitive lens distortion workflow, and updates to the Grid Warp Tracker and Cara VR tools.
- Nuke 12.2 sees the introduction of native support for USD in Nuke. It gives artists the ability to read USD data using Nuke’s ReadGeo node and enables them to work with geometry contained within the USD with an improved scenegraph UI, support for Normals, Color data, animated geometry and more.

Nuke 12.2 sees the introduction of native support for USD in Nuke. It gives artists the ability to read USD data using Nuke’s ReadGeo node and enables them to work with geometry contained within the USD with an improved scenegraph UI, support for Normals, Color data, animated geometry and more. The extensions to ReadGeo will be open sourced, enabling studios to integrate these updates into their custom USD tools.

New QuickTime Support
Offering a more stable system for working with QuickTimes, Nuke 12.2 introduces a new MOV Reader and Writer, replacing the previous 32-bit and 64-bit QuickTime Read and Write support with a more stable system and streamlined UI. This update introduces broader QuickTime codec support across operating systems, including updated, more performant H.264 encoding across Windows, macOS, and Linux.

As a result, some of the older QuickTime codecs will no longer be supported. See the release notes for more details on codec support.
Remote work is more important than ever, that’s why we’ve introduced the first implementation of SyncReview in Nuke 12.2. Giving teams the ability to sync multiple sessions of Nuke Studio, Hiero and HieroPlayer together and allowing two or more users in multiple locations to review and annotate footage collaboratively. Whether connecting to a network storage, cloud storage like DropBox, or working with localized files, all participants have access to live playback and viewer controls, soft effect parameters and toggling between versions. Plus, push updates allow users to stay in sync with the session. The number of users and resolution is only limited by your hardware and bandwidth.
As a result of this work, the Hiero Python API has been expanded in three main areas: controlling the viewer, project loading and saving so you can further customize your workflow. We have also added callbacks in various areas like annotations and version changes.

3D compositing and visual effects
3D Camera Tracker
The integrated Camera Tracker in NukeX® and Nuke Studio replicates the motion of a 2D camera with an animated 3D camera or point cloud in Nuke’s 3D space, allowing you to composite 2D/3D elements accurately with reference to the original camera used for the shot. Refinement options, advanced 3D feature preview and lens distortion handling improve efficiency and accuracy on the trickiest tracking tasks.
