I just looked at the clip... I'm sold. It's a definate improvement.
 
Great looking stuff.. so glad to see some interview stuff as this is what I'll be shooting. Also great to have Greg Brady on HD. I just missed an opportunity to shoot George Clinton and P-Funk on HD, now that's some funky skanky shiznit there.


Thanks for posting! I get my camera next week! I am such a dork I couldn't sleep last night thinking about it...

...if I could only see it.
I have the latest quicktime installed, but all I get is a white screen: which codec did you use?
Or is this a PC/Mac issue, sth like a FCP-quicktime...?
Please help!

The web scaled file at the top of the thread is an h.264 quicktime while the others are straight DVCPro100 Media files from FCP. If there is a codec you would prefer, let me know and I'll try to encode it for you. Sorry it's not working for you. Are you on PC or Mac?

Same here. I was able to see the first clip you placed here (barry_cc_warm_small.mov), and none of the rest.

I am on PC.

Thanks,

Ok here is the Push in footage in 720p H264.

The movie starts with the original, then cuts to the processed one. Due to H264 compression, the fine grain in the original is smoothed a bit, so it looks more clean than it really is. But this cleaning clearly lowers the sharpness of the face, something that doesnt occur in the processed one.
Clearly the processed one, compresses MUCH better.....hmm.....this could mean something when we start doing HD DVD's with H264 compression.

Hey folks,



I'v.

The clip consists of the uncorrected image from the camera (scaled down for the web) followed by the same clip with some diffusion added and a possible color grading.

Enjoy!

how/where did you do the warm/soft look? FCP? Magic Bullet?

Trade secret! I could tell you but then I'd have to kill you!:kali:


Actually, you can do that particular effect in any of the software packages out there, the clip posted is done in FCP. All you do is duplicate your footage onto a 2nd layer. Blur the new layer and set it's transparency to taste. The smaller the blur the lesser the amount of glow, the transparency then controls how much of the detail from the original layer will bleed through the blur layer. The warmth was added to the origional layer as color correction.

Have fun....
