ARTIST WANTED: For creating a film look

Hi
I'm just wrapping a shour film. It is about 20-30 min long and I need someone to go over what I have shot on mmy didgital camera and give it the film look. It is a student film so the budget is limited but I want to offer a fair price.
Some examples:
and
Using magic bullet is fine.
Here are some shots from my film:
Thanks for you time I look forward to your response

  • Mixing Frame Rates and Creating Old Film Look?

    Hello, I'm working with AVCHD footage which is 59.94 fps and have made my sequence settings at this frame rate. I've dragged in a few clips 23.98fps, 24fps, 25fps and 29.97fps, I'm attempting to give it a old film look so was going to render out at 14 fps as this is what 8mm is filmed at, I've never worked with mixed rates so any advice as to whether this is going to work? Should I have my sequence setting at my highest frame rate and the majority of the video is 59.94fps? would it work exporting at 14 or 16 fps?  

    I've never worked with mixed frame rates, but for the old film look, I like the Posterize Time effect set to 18 (one of the two standards for Super 8 that my camera had) and use Magic Bullet Misfire.

  • Creating a film look in Final Cut Pro 3

    I have finished editing my short in and some of the images are too harsh; please advise me on how I can get a more film like look. I shot the short on a Sony PD-150 and edited it on Final Cut Pro 3 using a G4 and running OS X. 2.6
    A friend suggested using a filter like Magic Bullet, which doesn't work on OS X. 2.6. Someone else suggested rendering it in 30 frames per second but don't know how to do that in FCP.
    G4   Mac OS X (10.2.x)  

    You're not going to be able to make magic happen with DV footage on final cut 3. Film has a generally softer and murkier look than video, so try bringing down the harsher higlights and desaturing colors somewhat. You're just going to have to play arround with the the filters and color corrector, and eyeball it on a broadcast monitor.
    As far as frame rate is concerned, there's nothing you can do. DV is 29.97fps, film is 24fps. Simply changing the framerate (especially to 30) won't make it look more film like. 24 fps pulldown needs to happen in camera to achieve such an effect.
    If you're interested in something like Magic Bullet (which you'll have far better luck with), you'll have to find someone who has it.
    Honestly, my advice would be to worry about your film looking good more than worry about your film looking like film.

  • Film Look in  FCPHD from PAL miniDV

    Hi everyone...
    So, I shot a documentary on Pal miniDV (25fps). I'm hoping to achieve a more film-ish look.
    I know that you can do this through Adobe After Effects by playing with the gamma curve and creating a small amount of motion blur - http://www.dvinfo.net/articles/filmlook/broadway1.php - though this deals with NTSC rather than PAL.
    I have a couple of questions relating to the use of pal here, and I'd really appreciate the help from someone who's more experienced than I (which means just about everyone!)
    (1) Does anyone have any comments about creating a more filmish look for PAL minidv rather than NTSC minidv? Is there a preferred method for PAL? With the frame rate at 25fps, you're theoretically 'closer' to film there, but what else can I do and what do I need to do differently?
    (2) Is there a way of creating the film look in FCP directly without going over to Adobe After Effects? And does anyone have any opinions about the dis/advantages of the various methods for creating a film look?
    (3) If I had to move over to Adobe After Effects to create the filmish look, I'd prefer to stay there to color correct. Anyone have any ideas about the dis/advantages of FCP's against AfterEffects's color correction tools?
    If anyone can refer me to any articles with step-by-step instructions about creating the film look, I'd really appreciate that. There seem to be so many different ideas.
    Okay, so I know I'm asking a lot and I apologise ...
    Thanks so much!

    Hi Richard,
    Part one of the dvinfo net article you referenced is to do with reproducing the motion signature that results when you add pulldown to 24fps film to get to 30fps for NTSC output. It does not apply to PAL footage. In PAL land, material shot at 25fps is simply slowed down to 24fps when printed to film (and vice versa for film material that is bound for video or TV).
    So to repeat, pulldown motion signature is not really an issue for PAL projects (I say not really because it can be done, but the speed change is more commonly applied).
    In your case however you are not concerned with frame rate changes, I don't think, you just want to apply a film look to your video. There are a number of ways to do this and by all accounts the Nattress filters are top notch for the price.
    I'm sure you checked out part two of the article you referred to above, which is the real meat of the piece, so to speak. Personally I prefer to do this kind of curve/saturation/unsharpening etc in After Effects, although you I believe you can do all of this with equivalent filters in FCP. It's a matter of personal choice and AE has a fairly steep learning curve if you're not familiar with it already. If you have AE 6.5, however, check out the included Color Finesse colour correction suite, which is almost a standalone application and is pretty great. In my opinion it's better than AE's colour correction window but again it's a matter of choice as you can do pretty much everything you'll need to in both (especially for DV material).
    Someone spoke of applying Motion Blur in the FCP motion tab - forget about that, that applies to blurring composited objects moving across the screen and will have no effect if applied to an entire layer of video. You could experiment with blur filters to soften your video slightly but if you're going this route the Nattress filters will probably be easier.
    Good luck with your project!
    Edit: on reading your post again I notice you're in LA - so I suppose you DO intend transferring your PAL material to NTSC. D'oh! Mea culpa - in that case as mentioned above I suppose conforming to 24fps then adding pulldown to get to 30fps is the way to go and will automatically give you the motion signature you require. I assume you can do this in Cinema Tools (not familiar with it) but you can also do it in AE by simply interpreting your footage in AE as 24fps and then adding pulldown.

  • SDK for creating PDFs, that can be emailed to end user?

    Apologies if this is in the wrong section
    I have been searching for a while but haven't found anything yet that I can see that covers my question, so please redirect me if this is a common/easy question!
    This is not a matter of the user clicking on some icon in their browser window to convert the on screen HTML to PDF
    I am not a developer, but may need to get one of my dev team involved in this discussion but thought I'd outline our situation
    I work for a software company and as part of our product range, we offer online ticketing. We use ASP.Net as the development tool so all pages are aspx, we use a SQL back end, we use a CMS to plug our web modules into.
    Scenario
    You want to go to the local zoo. Rather than lining up and buying a ticket, you wish to purchase an entry ticket online. You go to the zoo's website and notice a Purchase Tickets link, which is where my company steps in, as the builder of the business logic behind purchasing the ticket
    As part of the purchase process, you submit your name and email address, which is then stored in a SQL database.
    At the end of the purchase process, you receive an email with two PDF attachments, being:
    1. your ticket(s) and receipt, which shows details extracted from the SQL database. The tickets will include a barcode image (currently 1D, would stick with this for now)
    2. ideally you will have a separate PDF that contains Terms and Conditions of Entry to the zoo
    We have a solution that covers almost all of this, although currently we produce a single PDF that includes receipt, tickets and terms and conditions
    The PDF generation is currently handled within our web modules, so effectively the ticket is being generated by the Web Server. We are currently using a product from Winnovative to produce the PDF pages
    However the ticket generation is somewhat restrictive, and ideally we want to create much better looking tickets, that cater for formatting (font, color, etc) and ideally the ticket design could be changed by our clients (someone at the Zoo wants to add some static text, or an image, or move stuff around)
    The barcode generation seems to work well for us at the moment, though our current solution only supports 1D barcodes. I don't think Adobe is the answer for the barcode generation, but the PDF needs to display the barcode we generate
    I guess the first thing is, is there an Adobe product that sounds like it would suit our purposes? What would that product be?
    Thanks in advance

    Yes, that is built right into Business Catalyst comments.
    In the admin under the comments section you can select wether or not comments need to be approved first. You can then set up a user or workflow to be sent through email to the user to be able to approve it. Only catch is the user would have to have admin rights.

    I have a photo of an ice surface and another of a flower. Now I want to create a merged photo with the flower lying under the ice. I understand that I shall use the function "Layer" and have even read in the manual and looked on a video, but that information is not sufficiently detailed for me. I have tried several options, but I come now way. Generally it seems that your information is only for the ones who can, not for the people who can´t although it is we who really need to learn. Please give me a step by step (click by click) information on how I can get the ice above the flower and then make the ice partly transparent so the flower is seen underneath. Please send me an e-mail Erik Solbu [email protected]

    Open a new document big enough for your image. Then additional open your ice and flower image as well. Copy each and paste it into your blank document. They will be placed on their own separate layers.
    Make sure in your layers panel. (Bottom right) the ice is above the flower, by dragging it in place. In that same layers panel click the ice layer to select in and find the opacity meter above. Drag to the left until you get the effect you desire.

  • Choosing Color Profiles for Images Created on Film

    I just finished sending feedback to Adobe on one of its tutorials. The following is a copy of my message explaining my present predicament.
    << I have scanned film negatives and positive film transparencies dating back to the 1950's .I was the creator of most of these images but I do not remember the make or model of the cameras I was using at any point in time prior to 1974 and they all lack metadata. Prior to 2000 I used iPhoto and PS Elements for scanning, toning and development. Thus I can only guess what color profile I should use. I want to create TIFFS that will serve a dual purpose: exporting two formats, one for electronic sharing and the other for printing. On the Adobe CC, if I guess wrong, LR 5.6 64bit crashes immediately. Prior stand alone versions of LR and CS6 let you know that you had a color inconsistency, but they did not crash when you had made a wrong choice between srgb and ProPhoto. ACC gives me more options, but no warnings unless I am missing something your Help Files should contain.>>

    I guess I am going to throw caution to the wind and see what happens.
    Only one way to find out, Right
    Though I did go back and lighten my images. Also
    Ran color synch utility, which fixed 11 corrupt color profiles.(none of the 11 profiles pertained to i photo)
    I guess I am afraid to use pref setter,, to set the key embed color profile.
    Confused as to what that means??? Does that mean that all my CS Adobe-RGB jpegs will keep their color profile???
    Also implanted one image as an SRGB vs the rest which will all be AdobeRGB
    Oddly my color management in CS is almost Flawless. Yet, get me out of CS and I am completely lost!!!! Complicated stuff
    Toad, I did want to pass on that AdobeRGB 1998 is a much more robust color profile then SRGB especially when it come to printing on Epson. It might be worth experimenting with and if you really want to get into it there is also
    Pro photo RGB which is Huge color space, but a beast to work with

    which product should I buy? I want to create vintage/retro posters for band and Bar

    Good day!
    Instead of buying right away you may want to avail yourself of the free 30 day trial first to see which program fits your needs.
    Photoshop and Photoshop Elements may be worth a try.
    If you intend to create more graphic/typographic designs Illustrator may be worth looking into, too.
    Someone else may have more/other recommendations, though.

  • Compressor 3: Compressing to M2V for a DVD creates a shaky look to my entire video.

    This is a Compressor 3 issue I'm trying to compress a M2V for a DVD but it keeps creating a shaky look to my entire video. I have done this multiple times, but what is new to this FCP project is text zooming in, Canon 7D footage, and light rays layered on top of my video and text. I have looked up this issue on creative cow with no luck. I've tried single pass and double pass, still leaves me with shaky footage. I need this project to be done for a client and I can't explain why it isn't working.

    Do this in two passes.  First resize your video from HD to SD.  Then import your SD into compressor.  All DVD footage is 720x480 for NTSC and 720x576 for PAL.  You want to create anamorphic SD video to handle the widescreen.  One of the easiest ways to debug your DVDs is to rip them back before burning them to disk.  In DVD Studio Pro use the format option instead of burn.  This will create a VIDEO_TS folder on your hard drive which you can then read using software.  Rip the video back from the DVD with DVDxDV or another professional DVD ripper that can output video in Quicktime ProRes.  Import your video into Final Cut Pro, and play it back.  When you get the encoding right, go ahead and burn the DVD in DVD SP.

  • How do I create a new account for an iPod that is on an existing account?  My brother and I have shared an account for five years, and now that I'm moving out, I want to create my own account but still want to be able to play the music I've purchased.

    My brother and I have shared an account for five years, and now that I'm moving out, I want to create my own separate account but still want to be able to play the music I've purchased over five years. 

    In order to continue to play and sync the music you purchased with your old account, you'll need to authorize your new computer/iTunes library to do so.  You can do this by choosing Store -> Authorize This Computer and then entering in your old account credentials.
    That's all you should need to.  Then just create your own account and start purchasing and using it the same you have with the old one.

    First of all my english is not good enough and apologise for that. I want to create a kinda different java plug-in on mozilla . I ve been playin a textbase game for many years. However it takes many hours to play it manually. I d like to create a script for that and think script will work by itself (it will read 3d codes paste them automatically, it will click some words in website automatically etc.) I saw that one on your system its called "omerta rankscript". Could you tell me how i can start to do this and ? is it easy or how long time it takes to create a new plugin like this? also may i see the codes of this plug-in(omerta rankscript)?
    Thank you for your consideration.

    Well,
    it's up to you. The first part (Mcit-Project-ViewController-context-root) is the context root which you define in the view controller project. 'faces' is the name the servlet filter reacts on. You can't omit it but shorten it in web.xml. The rest is your directory structure. I'm not sure how to shorten this other as to move the jspx files back into the web root folder.
    By the way an ADF faces app never uses the .jspx at the end of the url. If you specify '.jspx', you only render the page but don't start the work flow.

    No.
    One of you create a new AppleID and one use the existing AppleID.
    But you can still use the items in each iTunes library.
    Create separate computer logins for each of you.
    This will give you each your own data. Contacts, calendars, photos, etc. (and your own iTunes library).
