  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Thought I'd have some fun with color correction. By no means are these pro grading... just havin' fun. ;) But so much data to work with! Awesome.

Driving off into the sunset just seemed so much more fitting. Quick 5 minute grade:

All levels, no CG grads or anything else. That's actual RED chroma latitude. Actually.. that's as far as RED goes on its own--any more and it starts to band and posterize in the sky. Of course the sky was *very* flat. A little bit of crispness in the blue channel from the compression too.
 
Casey, very nice "three faces of eve". If ever a camera could have dissociative identity disorder... I appreciate your sense of aesthetics and the range of contrast you have been able to modestly demonstrate.
 
ok now that's red! i was quite disappointed with the footage shared before now it's all another story
Super nice
 
Thanks a lot, Alex.

After watching those pics, I am all sold to the camera. My last concern about the highlights has disappeared, and now I know that I can get the look I want from it.

Concrete - you just made my morning. I was actually dreading waking up and looking at the boards because I just assumed people would be ripping us a new one. It bums me out that some REDUSERS are so aggresive ... "GIVE ME FOOTAGE! GIVE ME FOOTAGE!" - we are working hard over here (AND runnning a business with a VERY SMALL STAFF) and we are just getting started. There is just so much to TRY and TEST - it's CRAZY!!!

Anyway, again, thanks for the post - LOVE your last grade -

MUCH more to come ....

Cheers -
 
No need to worry offhollywood, some of these stills you have posted are the best shots i've seen since milkgirls.

I just did a quick comparision to some cinealta images, and you're right 'toast' doesnt even come close. the difference between this and cinealta is like night and day.
