HIERO has been built for collaborative working on VFX projects, especially with a quick turnaround and create a smooth workflow out of the box to improve efficiency and increase shot throughput volume. The brand new software is a lightweight shot manager for VFX. HIERO 1.0 is NOT a compositor or a system for finishing, grading or editing. It allows production facilities to efficiently conform, review and export shots to visual effects artists and into finishing systems. HIERO has been designed to work seamlessly with The Foundry’s NUKE and NUKEX compositing applications, but also enables collaborative working with other editorial, VFX and finishing tools.
HIERO removes human error by automatically creating a file structure based on rules that can be created by users as they conform and parcel out VFX shots to multiple NUKE artists. Because HIERO knows exactly where to look for updates, VFX supervisors can easily review shot progress in the context of the edit with the added confidence of knowing that the latest versions are always at their fingertips. HIERO significantly reduces the infrastructure work required to keep a VFX team up and running, saving time and money on every job.
