Instant HD Plug in Question
by Pouyan Fard on Sep 8, 2008 at 7:58:58 pm

Hello

I have some super 8mm footage that I need to use in an HDV (1080p) project. The film is already scanned in SD. Has anyone tried the Instant HD plugin and how good does it look?
I can scan the film in HD but that costs a lot but before buying the plugin I wanted to know if anyone has tried this??


Thanks alot in advance
cheers

it will have grain, so remove grain before blow up. instant HD works really well. I think you can download the demo and it leaves a -x- in middle of screen. don't forget to set your color management up in HD color, and the SD interpret color command will match because it fits inside the HDTV color space.

Instant HD is sweet...worth the money after you use it once.

I'd recommend it.

Hello Chris

thanks for the respond. For removing the grain from the footage is there a good way that you can recommend?

thanks again

How does Instant HD stretch the picture without degrading it? Is that possible to do with the available effects in AE7? Thanks and God bless.
