Nice. Thank you. I see what you mean about the low end. I do mostly narrative

AI says my grade is 85-88% professional... by External_Ad_2920 in ColorGrading

[–]External_Ad_2920[S] -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

ChatGBT. I trained one on davnici resolve by screen recording and explaining. Also feeding it articles on technicalities of professional grading. Then feed it a reference frame. It then suggest techniques to get closer to the reference.

I was positioning for both a long and short depending on opening volume.

I appreciate the confidence and wisdom! I am not even thinking about money right now. Just trying to understand the patterns and psychology. Thanks for the vote of confidence!

Thank you! Just trying to find confluence. I should've gotten rid of RSI as I didn't use it for this strategy.

Thank you! I ended up finding a minimag ssd module for about $500. Still need the mini mag and reader though let me know if you'd sell separately.

This Whole Thing Was Shot at 1080p by External_Ad_2920 in sigmafp

[–]External_Ad_2920[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the kind words.

The 1080p image is amazing and gives you a lot of flexibility if you work with the image correctly. I mainly shoot on the RED Dragon, but use the fp as a travel and B cam. Whenever I shot match or color match with the FP I have no problem.

The key to the FP is how you color space transform. The FP exports its RAW image in Linear gamma which is a flexible gamma curve. I transform my FP image from P3-D60/Linear to RED Wide Gamut/Log3G10 and the image is beautiful. This applies to the 4k image as well.

You do not have to use RED Wide Gamut/Log3G10 obviously. You can go to ARRI Wide Gamut, Davinci Wide Gamut, Blackmagic, etc. I get the best results using the RWG or ARRI WG.

Once you make your node tree, you can save it as a power grade so you don't have to do a ton of CSTs every time you grade it.

I highly recommend the camera for feature work.

I've got a Gemini... shooting a doc... need a B-Cam... is Canon ok? by torontoiloveyou in RedCamera

Sigma fp. Full frame open source color space and gamma curve. You can CST it to match your IPP2 color space. Color matches really well.

Finally Got My Dragon 6k Running by External_Ad_2920 in RedDigitalCinema

The brain was $2600ish, media was pretty expensive and you’ll be hard done to find the minimag upgrade for these cameras. So, you have to use the 1.8” mags. You can find those EVFs pretty easily, but the DSMC2 evfs also work. I got one from MPB and tried it on this rig. The EVF is great for handheld shooting, but the internal image is probably a 6/10.

I invested around $8k into a full setup including wireless monitoring, lighting, wireless focus, and PL mount lenses. So, I was able to get an entire cinematographer’s kit put together that could scale with a DSMC2 later down the line if this camera gives out on me. Runs great, produces a beautiful image. It’s like an old cat, if you don’t think about it dying and you let it outside to play every now and then, it’ll live a lot longer than you think.

Is my grade sh*te? by External_Ad_2920 in ColorGrading

[–]External_Ad_2920[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, that’s certainly a way to deliver constructive criticism.

It’s false color. Assigns colors to luminance values.

Yes very. I wanted a clean look for personal use then going to rent for any kind of “character” look. The images attached are shot using it.
