Nuke Show Setup Manager

Being a lead compositor at studio X I noticed a lot of pain in nuke script setups and naming convention so I wanted to develop a script that could fix this.

Show Setup

First step was to gather the plate show and use the show's name and shot I can build a naming convention. After this it was storing the UI information to a JSON file in order to retrieve it later.

It was setting up the load in a function that grabs all of the slots in the UI and transfers them into a dictionary to fill in the nuke file setup script.

The biggest challenge for me was using the PySide library and learning it for the first time. It was such a blast.
