Nodes
VectorDistort
VectorDistort: paint or patch the reference frame (Source), connect AIVectorGenerator to SmartVector, and the paint follows the motion through the shot.
VectorDistort: paint or patch the reference frame (Source), connect AIVectorGenerator to SmartVector, and the paint follows the motion through the shot. Occluded pixels drop out (occlusion matte). st-map outputs give the warp itself. Frame Distance picks how far apart the vectors are; a missing distance falls back to 1 frame.

Nuke equivalent
No Nuke class. In a .nk file this node is written as an Oink node that Nuke will not recognise.
