Pixelating DVC pro footage to look like DV
Hey guys,
I’m trying to match some DVC pro footage to like DV footage. I’ve bleached out and matched the colors, now I just need to match the grain. I’ve tried adding grain, but it doesn’t seem to have quite the same look as DV footage. DV footage being natively compressed has more pixelisation and such making the grains look alot more squared.
I’ve been thinking of playing with some fractal noise set to block… but I’d like to hear your opinion before I spend more time trying to fix up the footage

try adding a copy of the footage with a hard mosaic that creates a half or even quarter res look, then set it’s mode to Color to enhance the low colorsampling effect.

It somewhat worked, but I’m going to try and re-render it as DV footage

Try playing around with the sharpen filter…..If you overdo it with this filter things can really start to look, well DVish 🙂
