Main Features

Auto-Reconnection

Auto-Reconnection avoids having to think about copying and pasting nodes or node trees and maintaining their connections, even between different nuke scripts.

You can also feel confident that you'll always find where the stamp needs to be connected to thanks to the Advanced Reconnect functionality.

Single contextual hotkey

Using Stamps for the artist is as easy as remembering a single hotkey. The hotkey is context-dependent, so it performs many different actions based on what’s selected.

Production tested

Stamps has been thoroughly used in production and is currently used in studios of all sizes, and its development has been shaped by the feedback from compositors with different workflows and backgrounds.

Trixter was the first studio to implement Stamps studio-wide in the compositing pipeline.

Quick selection functionality

The tags system allows for organizing the stamps into categories for super quick access to every Stamp from any part of the node graph.

The Anchor Selection Panel will let you quickly search for the Stamp you want, sorting based on different filters like their tags, the labels of the backdrops where they live, or their popularity (how many times you've used them).

Free

Stamps is completely free to use in every context, under its BSD 2-clause license.
Open Source

The code is exposed and organized in a way that there's plenty of space for customizations.
Production Ready

Stamps has been implemented worldwide in plenty of big VFX houses and indie studios alike.
