Here's a key that I did off the footage, it's a bit squished for some strange reason but here's an idea of what you can do in a matter of minutes. =)

did you resize to 1280? i had to when i made the H.264 clip... the DVCPRO clips are 960 X 720 but open in FCP at 1280.. took me a while to figure that out (never encoded DVCPRO files before).

Thanks, yup that did the trick.

Great shot!

First head shot I've seen that's actually in focus and lit well.

Maybe not as sharp as the H1, but the skin colors are terrific... filmlike.

No artifacting that's gonna hurt chromakeying that I can see... far as I'm concern, it seals the deal for greenscreen work.

Thanks!:thumbsup:
 
Oh. I think DV Filmmaker has an MXF converter on their website. Just do a search for "mxf import" or "mxf converter", maybe also for avi? You'll find tools that will do it. Some are free.
 
bandwidth exceeded. But god DAMN does that keying look amazing! Not to mention the grab looks really great too. Special effects are going to have amazing possibilities with this camera.
 
After trying a few combinations of keyers in Shake, I settled on this:

This took a bit of time to assemble and I'm still not completely happy with how primatte pulled the hair on the left side but overall I'm quite pleased with the result. I added a slight amount of grain to the image to get a bit closer to the film look. You be the judges.
Edit: In case anyone's interested, I uploaded the tree.
 
Dmitry, that is really amazing. I would never know the subject wasn't at that location. Really impressive still.

Wish the bandwidth would reset so I could see the entire clip of course, but the stills look great.
 
Thanks. I wish I had the clip as well, but all the sources I've found have had their bandwidth exceeded. The only thing I found is the PNG grab.
 
Yeah, thanks. I've tried importing one of the clips before though, and it spit out errors. I've installed an update yesterday, let's see if it works now.
 
Born in Russia, then moved to Ukraine, then here to Canada, hehe.

As to Avid - it still gives me errors. The footage won't get previewed in either of the monitors, and exporting as a reference file to check the playback in QT doesn't help either. I'll blame this on my relatively old Athlon based PC.
So.. It'd be nice to have someone render out a TIFF sequence :).
