Nuke pixel sorting explained

Examples of pixel sorting using this plugin

BlinkScript makes it possible to do heavy image processing tasks within Nuke.

A good example of such a task is pixel sorting – there is a cool subreddit for this effect, and Kim Asendorf (who popularized this effect with his many amazing examples) wrote a script you can download and use in Processing.

I decided to write a simple pixel sort node for Nuke as practice in Blinkscript, and it has some extra features!

All pixel sorted images and video on this page were made entirely in Nuke, using this plugin.

I left the Blinkscript node unlocked and commented for those who want to learn the basics of it using practical examples. Hope it helps!

Update: this page used to be about a Pixelsort plugin written in the NDK, but since I don’t want to compile it for every new Nuke version I’ve decided to rewrite it using Blinkscript.
