Christopher Nolan Says There Was No Green Screen in Dunkirk Between originally planning to shoot his experiential World War II thriller without a script and (probably unknowingly) using prison labor to build some of the sets, Christopher Nolan went all out on “Dunkirk.” As revealed at a press conference in...

Hello guys! I really need your help with the following: I edited an advertising in FCPX shot on Arri Alexa (mxf native 2880*1620 files) with 422 prores proxies prepared by the dp who was supposed to do color grading and compositing later on. I was initially not supposed to touch...

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I have been working with Caleb (and once with Edward) for several months off and on. Caleb had me download a special version of the program about 3 months ago that tracks NBs antics via logs. I sent in log files a couple of times...

That looks like DCP indeed! I can't see the entire file names. Inside the file names (and the XML) is encoded what the kind it is (In your case it's probably 'feature') And, I can't compare with my own work (I'm on holiday this week.) DO copy ALL the files...

Sorry, but that plugin will only work for the Mark II. Any newer camera will have an updated system, and would require an updated EOS Log and Transfer plugin. But since FCP 7 was discontinued 7 years ago, no further development on Log and Transfer plugins are being done. You'll...

Sorry, no. Resolve renders out everything as a QT movie, or other setting (Image sequence, DCP). If you send stills, you can't get stills back. Best option is to color correct the stills in something like Photoshop and then only send QTs to Resolve. Shane Little Frog Post Read my...

if both drives had the same name and file paths then the re-linking would be simple and quick. If that's not possible there's another way to avoid manual re-linking but it's a bit of a pain. I stumbled onto this solution on another forum. Here's what was posted: I had...

Sorry, I don't have that AE version in front of me, and Adobe keeps moving such things around from version to version. But you CAN open AE Help, search for Auto Bezier, and find out right away. Dave LaRonde Promotion Producer KGAN (CBS) & KFXA (Fox) Cedar Rapids, IA...

Hi Mark I was thinking maybe is a Hz problem ? Best, Ole...

I checked the instruction/help section of the Movie Studio 13 manual and looked for tutorials in youtube on this matter but have not found anything. It's always a hassle when editing because clips might get slightly moved inadvertently when editing and are in the wrong place. Of course also, if...

Yes. Multiple MXF clips from the same folder do not relink automatically, you have to relink one at a time. MOV files in the same folder will relink automatically, meaning After Effects will find the rest of them. It's really painstaking on a project with many clips and multiple artists....

The founder is about the "founder" of McDonald's. I knew Ray Kroc founded McDonald's and that is about all I knew about him. This film is about Ray Kroc and the McDonalds brothers and why it is called McDonald's instead of Kroc's. Maybe I found this film so interesting because...

I have a Pegasus R4 (8tb) raid and one of the disks has gone down. It is a Hitachi HDS72302 (2 tb) Do I need to replace it with a new Hitachi HDS72302 or can I use a different one? if I can does anyone know what ones are compatible...

Hi Bouke, Here is a screenshot of what is inside the folder which Premiere created. Note that when I viewed this through a PC on the Windows NT formatted disk, all of the assets had the blank rectangle icon beside them (with dog-ear corner). Whereas on my Mac, you see...

I'll second Jeff's suggestion. I shoot football games where I have to upload each play as an individual clip. I send a stringout from FCPX to Resolve via XML, do a little color correction in Resolve if needed, and then export the whole thing as individual clips. It works like...

One thing to remember if you're sending it out for DCP service is to provide a 24fps and not 23.976. I am still researching why this is. I will be testing a WraptorDCP from AME soon. Check with your local film venues e.g. theatres, film groups, etc... for testing....

ah, that's new to me ☺ What are the files / folders you have? Something with Assetmap? If you show me the file structure, I can tell you if it's a DCP alike. Nevertheless, make friends with your local theatre, create a test DCP and view it there on a...

I have a client that wants to start doing 360 video documentaries in the style of the NY Times Daily 360 https://www.nytimes.com/video/world/australia/100000005316189/trying-to-save-the-corals-of-the-great-barrier-reef.html?mcubz=3 .

This is all new info to me, so I appreciate it. If special software is needed to create a DCP, what is the point of Premiere providing this output option (they call "Wraptor DCP")? I was able to play the file using a trail version of a DCP player. It...

The best deliverable format may vary according to playback device. You should figure out first which player and monitor you will use, then consult the documentation to figure out how to format your output.

Greg, thank you so much. That actually worked perfectly!...

What effects are applied to the video? That would seem the most likely cause of the long export time. Also, what is the hard drive arrangement? The video clips should be on a dedicated, fast drive. If using the system drive (C: ) and it's getting full, that would hurt...

As I already mentioned in the title, the preview Window is lagging. This happens sometimes when there is a cut between two video clips, and all the time when I'm using transitions. The Clips I'm using are full hd 120p/100Mbit/ s. So I have two ideas how to solve this,...

Your timeline aspect ratio is 1,77 and you're exporting it to a wider 1,89 aspect ratio so you'll get padding on the sides. Also If you want a full quality 4K render you'll need to set the timeline to what you want. If you're working with 4K footage in an...

Hi Dan. Is it posible to remove proportional spacing, so that numbers stay in their places as the time is going on?...

I already said what the source footage is. Read my comment (Ah! The worm turns!) I have export settings as 4096x2160, the same as my source footage. I have to keep the timeline resolution at 1920x1080 because for some reason 4096 fills my GPU RAM. And it's the Studio version....

The export time for a 3 minute video clip is almost 2 hours and is getting increasingly difficult by the day because we have over 400 videos to export. Gulp. The videos were shot on a Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH4 - 1080p, 50fps The sequence settings are matched. The export settings...
