Hi guys and gals,

I've placed an ISO that you can burn to a DVD up on Daniel Pattons FTP site. It's the film transfer footage but in SD DVD format. The footage will play fast because it's 24p and I don't have time to conform it to 29.97.

Anyway, get it while you can. It will only be up for 2 or 3 days.

all the best guys, and keep shooting!

Server is down, the link is cut.
 
Thanks Stephen. I'm downloading. Your server is FAST!!! I'm getting 255KB/sec.

The footage shouldn't play fast as all DVD players are capable of playing 24P and adding pulldown themsleves. Most major Hollywood "progressive" releases are done this way.
 
Many Thanks

Many Thanks

Thank you very very much. Looking forward to seeing it as I'm considering getting the HD100.:thumbsup:

I understand now what is happening. We are watching a 29.97 frame rate file on the DVD, so the stuff shot in 720P30 is real-time, but stuff shot in 720P24 (my 'action' scenes with the SWAT team) you have sped up to 29.97 instead of adding pulldown in your sequence so it looks a little like "keystone cops."
The opposite would have been true in the film transfer, where the 720P24 footage would have been realtime and the 720P30 footage would have been slightly slo-motion. Maybe if you have time you should change the frame rate of your sequence to 23.98 and re-encode so that the results on DVD match the filmout? All DVD players can play 23.98fps Mpeg-2 VOB. It is part of the DVD spec.

BTW, I like how you start and end with the homage to the Lumière Brothers' "L'Arrivée d'un train en gare de la Ciotat." When I first watched the DVD I could imagine the excitement the audience must have felt 110 years ago!

Exactly, the film was realtime 24p. The DVD looks sped up. The timeline was a "natural" 24 RT when I created the ISO. I'd have to take the 24p sequence and make a container out of it and then place the container on a 720p29.97 timeline in order for it to play at the right speed on a DVD player. I ran out of time on that project (on to the next).

If you do not have an HDTV then it's fun to take the DVD to Circuit City or someplace like that and place it in a DVD player that's feeding a big screen. Then you can see what it will look like in SD on a big screen. I have a bud that works at Circtuit city and I've taken full rez footage from the HD-100 and pumped it out to 30 HDTV's simultaneously. Amazing quality on any brand.

Anyway, more input on the shots. Tim, the shots in the "music video" genre were shot with the warm scene file. I was amazed at what I saw on the silver screen. They came out nearly perfect in the film transfer. My timeline, SD, HDTV and film were nearly identicle in the representation. I realize that the nightclub scene stayed in one part of the color gamut but still, it was so close that I feel comfortable with the results and will shoot this summer's doc using the "warm" scene file knowing what to expect in the outcome to SD, HDTV and film transfer.

I found out what I needed to know in the film transfer experiment.
 
Thanks Stephen
Glad I downloaded the footage before the link burnt out... Looks great, especially the first shot of the train just took my breath away! totally film -like. I would like to know though if this was footage taken from the digital realm onto film and then back from film onto the DVD or was it from the digital files that you encoded the DVD? Thanks a lot again for posting the DVD link.

Hi,

What was sent out to DVD is exactly the same timeline as what was sequenced out to film. So, the same timeline was used for both delivery methods. The clips are un color corrected and untouched. They are directly off the camera with one exception. The shots from the orient. On those I don't know what the origin was. By the time I got them they were m2t but I'm not sure how they were obtained. As for the rest of it (train included) they were shot by me or someone I know and they are all raw from the camera.

take care and Keep shooting...
 
well damn me for not seeing this earlier............does anybody that DID download this have it still? let me know, i'll give you my ftp info if you dont mind sending it my way
