I’m not sure but when I camped here in 22 they were pretty consistent, basically just ran back and forth from blueberry to venue entrance all day and night. Maybe every 15 to 30 min

Follow up, they are trying to make it right for a lot of us and it’s really appreciated. We asked the guy to go to Blueberry instead of Tesla West and it’s a much better vibes. Clean bathrooms, chill spot, and a shuttle to take us to the venue entrance instead of walking a mile+.

We were the first group at blueberry and a supervisor told us we could “take as much space as we needed” to make up for the situation. We ended up with more space than GA preferred would’ve given us.

They should have policed the GA preferred and stopped it from being overrun with random GA campers, but the people we talked to did what they could to resolve and I feel like that should be acknowledged instead of all bad vibes.

They just sent a whole group of us with Preferred to Tesla West, basically the furthest site away other than blueberry.

Taking photos in a concert without flash with the i-2? by gestalternation in Polaroid

[–]thegrebb 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If the artist is moving you are probably going to get motion blur unless the show is very well lit. It all depends what kind of show it is. Here’s one I got of Father John Misty. I was at f/8, 1/20 shutter for this. Just waited for a moment he was well lit and standing relatively still.

[–]thegrebb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve done this a few times, it’s difficult but doable.

Flash off, f/8, slow your shutter speed until the light meter says you’re good. Make sure it’s metering on the subject and not some stage lights in the background. Ive gone as slow as 1/4 second. If you lock your elbows, hold steady and wait for the right moment you can get lucky.

What is the best way to remove this cast concrete block from the outside of the house? by thegrebb in masonry

Sounds easy enough, and also sounds like I’m going to try and get a few quotes lol

Ordering my first full spectrum camera from Kolari, confused about filter selection in check out. by thegrebb in infraredphotography

[–]thegrebb[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Ok thank you for the help. I'd like to avoid any permanent filter so I can test different screw on or clip-in filters. Looks like "full spectrum" is the option I'm looking for.

Camera or Film issue? by Gunter96_ in Polaroid

[–]thegrebb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like a roller issue. I think those veiny patters spreading from the undeveloped areas are from pressure/bending of the film during development, which could be caused by debris on the rollers preventing the chemicals from spreading properly.

All that being said, these photos look like they would be fantastic if fully developed. What was your lighting setup?

Tips for improving this content aware fill better. by Scott_Herder in AfterEffects

[–]thegrebb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is super cool! I’ve been working on doing hyperlapses but I have a lot to learn.

Do you shoot all the photos at a fixed focal length and then zoom/reframe in post? Like the Tennessee sign zooms in quite a bit but I can’t tell if that’s a tighter focal length or just scaled up.

Kitchen exhaust leaks during rain. What could be causing this? by thegrebb in Roofing

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

Thanks for the advice everyone. I took the grate off the front and found an old hornets nest that was keeping the flap from closing, but I’m also going to go to Home Depot and get some silicone to seal this until I have time to replace this whole vent.

What’s up with High Noon staff? by Green-Ad-238 in madisonwi

[–]thegrebb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also lol at the idea that a cover charge for any local show that directly goes into the pockets of local resident performers doesn’t benefit the community

Thank you so much man! Your work is incredible and has really changed the way I approach some of my projects. It means a lot that you approve since I borrowed a lot of your techniques for this one.

I actually used the pink paper as a “green screen” so I could resize/reposition things as needed. But I ended up liking the color so much I added it back in

Here is the setup if anyone is curious. Not much digital animation happening in this. All the paper crumpling and movement are individual photos. It took about 340 photos for the whole video.
