  • 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 :)

Rollin, rollin rollin... (New and improved!)

As you may remember the first clip we posted form the OCRT was a car driving in a garage under available light. It looked pretty good in 720 but the 4K tiff left a litle to be desired. Check it out again if you like.

After a week and many late nights working in Red Alert I think I've got a pretty nice looking 1080 clip now. The only reason I'm using 1080 is that it dosen't seem to suffer from the same quicktime issues as 2K clips do.
Remeber this clip is 2-3 stops underexposed! There is some shadow noise but it's very well controlled now. I feel like this clip could easily be projected to theater sizes and hold up fine. Here you go...

Nice...

Just curious, what happened to the blue channel in the original TIFF, or was this already sussed out?

OK Evin, how do you get a 48MB TIFF up on Reduser.net? Us lowly members seem to be limited to 2MB files in 10MB folder.

Moderation has it's privledges, and it's pitfalls, the LnAcc clip crashed the site for a few hours becasue everyone and thier mother in law was downloading it at the same time. I have my own speical area because of the lens testing.

Reduser.net isn't hosting the file, so the limits here don't apply. Look at the URL, its being hosted by another site.

EDIT - I see this was a nightime shot now... pretty impressive.

I played with the original tiff and I thought I could grade the interior garage to look like anything... daytime, middle of the night. Great.
 
CC to TIFF?

That TIFF is quite different. Is this color correction or just different settings in REDALERT? I guess there really is no way to compare images until we can have REDCODE RAW files to play with in REDCINE. Uncompressed TIFFs and DPXs may not really tell the truth.

OK, I don't know what I'm doing wrong. The new PSgarage.tif is pixel-for-pixel identical with the one I have dated from Sept. 2. Is it just being cached or something? I downloaded it twice, just to be sure, but I'm still seeing no difference.

:blink:

[EDIT] Never mind, I realized the new file is the 1080 clip, not the tiff... sorry... :biggrin:
 
Guys that IS the old tiff, it's for reference only. It's the 1080 H264 that's new.

Oh yeah, Evin. That's what I'm talking about... how is it that just a few settings in REDAlert! can make such a difference? Is it really that hard? I'm sure REDCine will be easier to work with.

Anyway, my fears have completely disappeared. This is awesome.
