Another lesson completed

I'm working on lessons out of a book by Ron Ganbar:  Nuke 101:  Professional Compositing and Visual Effects.  The materials used for this scene are from the book's training materials, but I did the compositing between the background plate and the character.  =)

I'm only 3 chapters in and I would recommend this book to anyone that wants to learn Nuke from the ground up.  It's very easy to follow, and the examples in the book can easily be transferred to a professional workflow.  Below is the end result, and the node graph of the same.  I still have color correction to do but this was mostly an exercise to become familiar with working on files with multiple passes (openEXR) and tweaking them to look right.

PS:  You may notice the two write nodes at the end, I was just messing around with them and aren't necessary, although one write node is a necessity to render an image sequence or a video.

End result:
