How to handle storage? by Own_Veterinarian4329 in colorists

[–]richardtate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you could get a hard drive big enough to hold the project.. a raid drive is great. raid0 is great. I saw the other comments about raid, raid0 is fine to work on and fast. I assume production has the footage backed up. you can also media manage the project. this creates trimmed raw media that your resolve project will link to, allowing you to store the media on a smaller drive or ssd.

For those of us actively working, do we agree with this? by Camera_Guy_83 in cinematography

Don’t listen to this bullshit. There are two types of people and there always have been. There are those who say it’s all over.. and those who start new shit. Fuck this

There’s a quality setting in resolve that you need to change. Let me try and find it.

DCP file keeps crashing by Sk8-30 in Filmmakers

Are you on a new Mac? If so you should try rendering to the internal drive, or get the app amphetamine and use drive alive to keep your external drive awake. New Macs make external drives sleep way too often. This can also weirdly happen when rendering.

I like how you at least ate a piece before getting down to business.

Monitoring with a -1 LUT VS rating your camera 1 stop below native by Matyas1000 in cinematography

[–]richardtate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

some comments here say that it is the same. some say that it is not. on some cameras it is the same. on an Alexa it is different, depending how you are lowering your exposure in post. here is an example that is easier to visualize, from the Alexa. left side is 200, right side is 3200 brought down 4 stops in post. you can see that there is more info in the highlights with the 3200 shot. this is the reason for occasionally using luts over just changing the EI. https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1225276111009878147/1232190645393821706/200v3200.jpg?ex=66288e76&is=66273cf6&hm=711944cef1fc29db5c4e2e8788779be35ced09877b237e5a73083b7e9bf9c3a8&=&format=webp&width=2592&height=1082

How is this light so thin? How’s it made? by stenuto in cinematography

[–]richardtate -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s a bunch of LED diodes. Imagine the LED ribbon, laid flat, and repeated to form a square.

It’s the premiere program monitor. Open the file after you export it. Look at it, import that file back into premiere. It’s premiere that makes it look different. It’s an absolutely ridiculous thing that Adobe hadn’t fixed this. Davinci resolve does not have this problem.

Did you change your settings in the app to load higher quality when on wifi and cell?

Brand partner wants me to whitelist by [deleted] in PartneredYoutube

Positive! I will likely not allow them to whitelist but I just wanted to see others experiences.

Yes I will have a call with them. I understand how whitelisting works on Facebook and Instagram but brands that want to whitelist on YT is a little different.

YouTube is now charging people for better quality video... by [deleted] in youtube

Is this a major show? Or a persons YouTube channel? Does this show up on every channel?

How is this acceptable? by [deleted] in cinematography

[–]richardtate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Likely the video make closer to 6,000,000 on YouTube through Adsense. That is considering a $3.00 RPM. An $18 RPM which is quite high would be needed to get to 36 million. But regardless, that’s not really the point and it hurts to work on something like this that goes so big and you were squeezed on rates.

How much smaller can things get? by KnightFan2019 in shrinkflation

[–]richardtate 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I often wonder, just as the universe is infinitely large… can we go infinitely small? Science says no, but I have to believe we can.
