  • 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 :)

there has been a ton of talk lately from new people coming over to RED with their purchase of KOMODO in regards to what "straight out of camera" means. People have been curious why we can get "different looks" and they be so drastically different. I made this video using the "Sunset Field" footage I shot on my KOMODO so that it could give some insight. I have another video coming to going over more in depth IPP2 and how much we can push pull with KOMODO. for now here is this video


let me know if you have any questions ?
 
This is awesome! Thanks for sharing Tim!

As someone who is new to R3D and the IPP2 flow, is there any good resource to learn on how to properly expose these files? Specifically Jarred mentioned they are using a new way of metering in the Komodo interface, curious to learn more about it.

I am working on another IPP2 Specific video, and I will be going over the metering interface in a different KOMODO video I have planned. Stay tuned.

Can you toggle on and off the IPP2 in the komodo? Ideally Id want to view my images with my 3D Kodak luts, I'd like to do that with outputting RED LOG and then applying the luts on after in monitors or camera. Also sending out to focus puller they might want a different LUT too, so ideally send out the the SDI just a LOG image for all to tweak as they please.
 
J.Orlandi,


If I am understanding you correctly, you won't be able to use your 3D Kodak luts if they were not designed to work with the RWG/LOG3G10 color space. You could use them in a "Legacy" workflow however. Luts like Hrvoje's "Primers" or Phil Holland's "Philmcolor" are designed specifically for the RWG/LOG3G10 colorspace.

You could however "Duplex" your 3D Kodak luts with specific IPP2 Output Transform Luts so that the IPP2 Output Transform Lut carries out its Transformation first and completely before the 3D Kodak Lut was applied. This is not just blending the two Luts together which would give you shitty results.

Awesome! Thanks so much for all your work and support!
 
Hi. My first post here. Tim, this is aimed straight at people like me so thanks for your time and effort. I was about to confirm an order for the C300/3 but started thinking hard about the Komodo. Some footage has been great, some not so, which is normal for a pre-release camera. Your footage aims to show the potential of the camera which is perfect for me. Thanks again.
 
For those who are new to Redcode and raw work flow I highly recommend downloading the latest version of Redcine X and some of the R3D sample clips at Red.com or Komodo samples here and playing around with it. Everything Tim showed us in this video can be done in RCX. It’s free, so the only cost is your time and some disk space.
Especially if you are considering a move from a more traditional video camera work flow this is a good way to decide if deep raw work flows are really your cup of tea. The range of grading possibilities from well exposed raw footage is infinite. There is a significant learning curve involved.
 
Thank you for sharing Tim!
Once again, love your work and I love the newest addition to the RED family of imaging beasts!!!

GREAT TIP. I have already done that to understand what the best workflow is once my Komodo arrives and also to see if my machine can handle it. The answer clearly is proxies :D

Cannot wait to learn more about how to best expose R3D and for the IPP2 pipeline. If there are already resources I missed please share away.

So is LOG3G10 vastly different from REDLOGFilm?
 
J. Orlandi,


Here's a post From the man himself, Graeme Nattress, responding to a similar question from another Reduser Member.

Hi Tim, great work as always. I was wondering how you obtained such a nice sky with your "enhancement ? Thx.
