  • Additive mode or composite mode…

    Posted by Kevin Camilleri on January 24, 2011 at 5:55 pm

    Hey all,

    I am working on a show that has some really under exposed shots in it and i’ve been trying for ever to get things to match without adding a ton of noise and grain. I was speaking to a compositor and they mentioned something about trying and additive mode or a composite mode whereby adding multiple layers within the frame. i know that this can be done in Avid by adding multiple video layers and adjusting each specific layer then combining them into a single layer (it makes sense in my head). Seeing as how Resolve can only read one video layer, is there a way to duplicate this process by using the node tree?? I’ve tried using a key mixer or a parallel mixer, but can’t quite get the desired results… Anyone have any ideas? or even know what I am babbling on about?

    thanks,

    kev

    If I only could find a mixer control now…
    Mixing a red version together with a green one, blended by one versions luma or whatever keyed, ahhh , that would be killer 🙂

    In color we could do the trick where we copied the image data from one channel to another and got around it. Though not sure about in DaVinci.. Some people run the footage though something like https://www.redgiantsoftware.com/products/all/magic-bullet-denoiser/
    or…
    https://www.revisionfx.com/products/denoise/pricing/
    Then grade.. Anyone have any other ideas?

    I´m using Neat Video for denoising.
    Cheap, but best denoiser-plugin i´ve seen so far. It also helps with compression artifacts.
