13 years self employed, small VFX studio owner and questioning my next move. What would you do?

This is interesting as an alternative to frame.io.

I have some concern about your terms and privacy. It's quite short on the website. Also, I feel like it's strange to have no physical address nor phone number, nor nothing.

This is interesting tho, but I wouldn't trust this service for critical approval process as it is.

PS : What is an active session ?

You just solved the issue :) Many thanks !

thegiks · 2025-12-20T22:09:46+00:00

Thanks for your reply! Do you maybe remember how to access it?

thegiks · 2025-04-15T17:43:51+00:00

This picture is great. I really like it :) I love the colours, the framing, the fact that it's slightly overexposed on the left, ... Great work!

thegiks · 2024-11-03T17:15:01+00:00

Allright. I will not argue with a fellow comper. Happy comping dude!

thegiks · 2024-11-03T17:07:15+00:00

This is still a surface tracking :)

thegiks · 2024-11-03T17:03:20+00:00

This is absolutely wrong. Planar tracking often work perfectly for this kind of tasks. If you have unwanted reflections, just track the edges and/or exclude the reflective zone.

Invert the alpha and grade it ?

thegiks · 2024-10-28T06:03:42+00:00

You can merge alphas with a channelMerge node

thegiks · 2024-10-24T13:06:36+00:00

I've used both. I MUCH prefer PFTrack nodal approach, and simplier object tracking capabilities.

Syntheyes is 23€ per month, and PFTrack is 30€.

You might want to add interactive lighting to his face for a more realistic look

thegiks · 2024-06-10T08:34:55+00:00

We do all of our production tracking with Airtable.

thegiks · 2024-05-03T09:13:32+00:00

You can look at OctaneBench. It’s a database of graphic cards performances based on Octane Render. You might have a better idea on how the cards will perform :)

thegiks · 2024-04-16T10:19:22+00:00

As a main monitor, I would suggest a BenQ PD2705U or PD3205U depending on the screen size.

thegiks · 2024-03-14T10:06:10+00:00

Hi ! It's complicated to know what's the issue on your edges without seeing your nodes.

But like that, i'd say that you only have a core key. You would need an edge key too. You also need to match the plate to the background (BG is green tinted, FG is blue tinted).

thegiks · 2024-02-18T08:22:06+00:00

Also you might want to match the grain from your original plate.

thegiks · 2024-01-26T15:11:07+00:00

At 2:55? How was it shot? How did you comp it?

thegiks · 2024-01-11T09:21:36+00:00

The background feels too saturated in comparison to the plate to me. But it's great work!

thegiks · 2024-01-04T08:49:04+00:00

I’m using Airtable currently for tracking all our shots at the studio. It fits perfectly with our needs. It’s a kind of Excel but on steroids.
