STAMPS & DEEP Workflow | Script Refactoring

This is a Script Refactoring video focusing on Stamps and Deep Combine Workflow. It’s based on Shahid Gire's wonderful composite and nuke script from his "Intro to Deep Compositing" video over at VFX SHOWDOWN:

Intro to Deep Compositing - Full CG Deep Workflow in Nuke Using Deep Holdout
   • Intro to Deep Compositing - Full CG D...  

I reached out to Shahid to collaborate on a video I hoped to make about Stamps and Deep Workflow but never had any good renders. Shahid graciously let me use his nuke script and render assets as a starting point for my video.

I cannot say thank you enough to him, go check out his channel:
@VFXSHOWDOWN

I will provide downloadable nuke scripts of the different "Levels of Stamps" script checkpoints on my blog www.CompositingMentor.com. But if you want to download the render assets to the video, please subscribe to his patreon page and get access to the downloads. Trust me, it's worth it, these types of Deep renders are hard to come by!
