Quote from: JADURCA on January 02, 2019, 05:14:45 PMHow you do to achieve that pro handheld motion for the latest scenes?
Warp Stabilizer on some very low percentage but don't tell anybody :-X

How long was your record time at those settings? I think I'm right in saying you can drop down to 10 bit lossless but not in other crop modes like 4k etc that's 14bit lossless only?
As I mentioned above in the specs, I had continuous recording and I could set the bitdepth down to 10bit-lossless (or maybe it was 11bit-lossless) in the crop_rec module even at that resolution.

Great job footage looks awesome.
Well thank you very much!

I finally got my hands on the beast! After my beloved 7D got stolen, I could upgrade to the 5D Mark III since my boss would sell it to me for some overtime work :D

Of course I had to test out the crop_rec experimental build and I have to say that the result is truely amazing. At work we do have the latest RED 8k Helium but the overall result of the 5D on steroids in combination with a good optic and a proper post-production workflow is getting very close to high-standard cinematic cameras! This is just so much fun to shoot with this little beast!!

SPECS:

  • shot on the 5D Mark III with a sigma art 35mm and a 64gb Lexar 1066x CF-Card
  • shot in in 3520x1320 in 10bit-lossless at 23,976 fps using the crop_rec module (so I could get around 85mbps continuous recording at that framerate)
  • The files were mounted w/ MLVFS, graded in DaVinci, exported to DNxHR HQX 10bit, edited in Premiere and finally exported to 4K DNxHR HQX 10bit.

I'm sorry for YT's little purple color shift but I hope you guys enjoy it and I'd be glad to get some feedback!



Thanks again to the magic lantern community for being so awesome and making all of this even possible!

First of all, I'm going to ask u guys to not tear apart my video because of the tremendous amount of anti-aliasing and moire!
This is not due to my workflow nor the 4K-upscale, unfortunately it's just the 7D sensor in combination with ML...

Nonetheless, everything was shot on the 7D with a sigma art 35mm in 1738x869 in 14bit at 23,976 fps (some 5x crop clips in 2400x1200), mounted w/ MLVFS, graded in DaVinci, exported to DNxHR 444 10bit to Premiere and finally exported to h.264 in 4K w/ a CBR of 100mbps.
I again used @wangtrirat workflow to emulate a Arri Alexa look.

Hope you guys enjoy it and I'd be glad to get some feedback!

So, this time I tried to bypass the serious amount of YT compression (which is huge w/ 1080p) so I did what is forbidden and upscaled my video to 4K and uploaded it :-X

It really makes a difference! I tried to avoid this upscaling-trick but it's the best solution I've found yet... You can check it out with the previous videos on my account, which look nearly horrible after uploading compared to this one.

As far as your shooting skills are concerned, the video is too shaky and amateurish.  Next time, please use a monopod and practise smooth camera movement.  Also do not pull focus back and forth like crazy.  This doesn't look good.  A LCD viewfinder in combination with a stabilized lens, variable ND filter and some practise will give your video a much more stable and professional look.

...and a much more boring video! This is exactly the type of videos I'm trying to avoid right there. Gear shouldn't get in the way in my opinion. I'm on vacation with my friend and my purpose is to catch the right moments, not to plan them. They wouldn't have been so comfortable in front of the cam if I'd set all of the stuff up you mentioned. I need to be light and quick. This is exactly what I love about ML, because the result I get right ouf the box is truely amazing as you mentioned and I can bypass all that secondary gear. I used to worry about clean shots, nothing should be shaky, everything in focus, etc... Turned out to be boring. The unperfection makes it in my opinion way more unique in a way.

BTW, @IDA_ML is right about the ND filter. Set to 24fps, 1/48 shutter speed, open the lens and then fix the exposure with a ND. This will give better motion blur and a better "feel"...
A polarizer can help too, to recover some highlights. I heard the B+W circular polarizers are pretty good.

I admit that some ND would have been suitable in this conditions, but I hate that 1/48 Shutter feeling! I will never shoot under 1/100 unless I need to. However thank you very much for the letterbox hint! I'll try it out next time.

And here's the link to the workflow:

Share Your Videos / A 7D in its best conditions
July 07, 2018, 01:29:31 PM
Here we go again!

I again used @wangtrirat workflow to emulate the Arri Alexa look and given the amount of light available in the scene because of the snow, I could catch some of the best rolling shots I've ever had!

I mounted all the clips w/ MLVFS, graded in DaVinci 14, exported the clips to DNxHR 444 10bit, made the edit in Premiere and exported the final edit again to DNxHR 444 10bit.

Everything was shot in 1728x864 at 23,976fps on a 35mm Sigma Art lens, which I adore in combination with my 7D since I only get the best of it due to the crop factor.

I'm a bit disappointed of youtube's compression and I'd really love to get some tips from u guys on how to get the best uploads settings for YT. This time I uploaded the 6gB file in DNxHR but I'm still getting a poor result. I've seen people upscaling it to 4K but isn't there any other workaround ? Please help me guys because my DNxHR file looks way better than the uploaded one and I would love to share it with you.

Those were unfortunatly the last clips I could get before my precious camera got stolen... Hope you guys enjoy it and tell me what you think!

Meh. Thought it was some good workflow. There's too many transformations in this. Using ACEScct on CinemaDNG's would yield better results, or even just a direct transform from Log-C to rec.709, using something like Logarist...

@50mm1200s I used to export my clips in Log-C out of the mlvRawViewer (well not in full bit-depth) and then apply the Rec.709 transform in Davinci, but to be honest I wasn't getting close to the "emulated" dynamic range from @wangtrirat's workflow. If you can provide some more details on the workflow you're thinking of, I'd be glad to try it out!

LoO93, did you shoot wide open? I see a strong loss of sharpness in out of center areas (if that´s an artistic choice to have a vintage look I can totally understand, although I personally prefer a cleaner image).

@whitelight I used the "prism blur" from DaVinci to get the heavier loss of sharpness and the chromatic aberration out of the center areas. It's the first time, but it was indeed an artistic choice trying to achieve also a vintage lens look.

Share Your Videos / 7D Arri Alexa Emulation
May 20, 2018, 11:43:25 PM
Last September @wangtrirat had the kindness to share his workflow to emulate an Arri Alexa out of an 5DmIII. Thank you very much for that. I can't believe what's coming out of my little 7D now thanks to that workaround.

I mounted all the clips w/ MLVFS, graded in DaVinci 14, exported to some uncompressed 10bit format from Quicktime and then exported H.264 out of the Adobe Media Encoder before uploading it to vimeo.

Everything was shot in 1728x864 at 23,976fps on a 20mm 2.8 canon lens.

I tried to get that analog film look. I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I do.

This time around I kept it very simple :

All the footage you will visualize in this little video was shot in 1728 × 864 (max. resolution), exported to ProRes4444444444 in C-log using MlRawViewer and put into a 1080 timeline in Premiere WITHOUT any strechting NOR grading, so you guys could judge for yourselves what the (lovely) 7D is capable of :)

Enjoy and feel free to comment!

Sorry for the delayed answer but I'm in the middle of my exams for College and I didn't really expect to get some replies to be honest.

@HappyBlack Well thank you very much, glad to hear that :)

@cmccculllum taking notes for the colours and here's the link to the LUT I've used: http://juanmelara.com.au/print-film-emulation-luts-for-download/
I took the Kodak2383 one ;)

@Scott7D thanks for the nice words and no, I didn't use any VAF filter. It's actually the first time I hear about this and would love to try one, but I'm not sure where to get these in Europe.

Thanks for the feedback! Excited to share more

Very nice grading! Loved the look of the night scene in the backstreet and the clearness of the ones in the woods . I'm amazed to see what the 5DIII is capable of!

I also noticed that you may have the wrong aspect ratio for the clips of the running girl at the beach. I guess it's because of the squeeze when you shoot raw in higher fps rates.

I'd also be glad to hear a bit more about your workflow on this one.

Share Your Videos / Ode to my 7D

Hello dear ML-Community! I'm new here, 23 years young but it's been a while that I've been enjoying this wonderful little piece of software that is ML on my beloved 7D.

I thought it was about time to share some of the work I did thanks to the enabled RAW-possibilities:

https://vimeo.com/198382823

Every clip was captured with an Canon EF 20mm 1:2.8 optic, custom neutral picture profile and using the ML .mlv-format, resolutions of 1728x864 & 2400x1200.

Using MlRawViewer, I applied a 3D-LUT, made some minor exposure corrections, exported most of the clips in C-log to AppleProRes 4444 and used Premiere for the cut. I'm pretty happy with the results I got straight out of the MlRawViewer.

I hope you guys enjoy this and I'd be glad to get some feedback!

Thanks again to ML for making all of this possible.
