Yay! That worked, thanks Jim and Adam!

Now I just need to figure out why the entire pork chop texture and distortion are doing odd things (per the attached).

As I am a newbie, can you see what I’ve done wrong or point me at any related tutorials that may make me a better basic modeler/rigger for bvh files in general?

Thanks again!

Correct me if I’m shooting myself in the foot here, but one of my colourists who likes to receive final DPX sequences in “REDlogFilm” seems to like this workflow:

I Work in R3D raw in a linear space. When you are finished with your effects work, simply:
1) go to the project panel and interpret all red footage (Ctrl+Alt+G) then on the popup (in AE CC 2014 anyway and with RedCineX-Pro installed):
2) you will see a [More Options…] button at the bottom. Click it and you’ll see:
3) the RED source settings. Here, change the Gamma Curve to: REDlogFilm (From RedGamma4 or whatever it is) and click OK. Then:
4) when exporting DPX sequences use the Preset “Full Range” and uncheck Logarithmic Conversion and use units: 16-bpc (10 bit Depth)

Seems to work very well for us, but if I’m missing something, please let me know.

Cheers,

Chris

I’m also interested in a script, Steve is correct, remember interpretation is great and simple, but sometimes I have to revert gamma curve interpretation on multiple R3D Raw files back and forth from REDgamma4 to REDlogFilm.

Just throwing it out there if anyone else sees a value in an “interpret footage” script…

Cheers,

May not be related, but I should add, if you have periods in folder names like /A012_C007_06160K_001.R3D – muzzle flash/ Resolve will not see the folder or it’s contents.

Filenames can have additional periods in them, but not folders or directories. remove any periods in directory names may solve the problem in this case.

I know this is an old thread, but there several scripts available that will copy markers such as this one:

Hope this helps!

Thanks Vishesh, unfortunately it’s a bit beyond that tut, I need a solution that can handle a very soft focus, but thanks!

I know this is an old thread, but another tip that may help if the text you want to underline is more than one line, is duplicate the layer, erase the text and add spaces and underline characters as needed. Parent the new to the text and you are good to go.

Thanks Dan, I’m certainly getting closer.
so at .0015% scale I’m seeing 19,970 (great!) but when the scale hits about 18.99% I’m hitting 100 …so when the scale hits the upper limit of 273% I’m still at 100 (18.99% to 273% all = 100) I need it to hit approx. 100 at 273% instead of 19% – how can I fudge this?

Thoughts?

ps. Advice you’ve given me in the past has resulted in product that is actually being screened at the Cannes Film Festival later this month so THANK YOU so much for being such a great contributor to independent film and it’s struggling artists!

Thanks Dan, as always you save the day – and in record time!

I also had a slight left shift so modified to affect the x, I know there would be a cleaner way but did this:

startY = thisComp.layer(“Null 1”).transform.position.valueAtTime(0)[1];
startX = thisComp.layer(“Null 1”).transform.position.valueAtTime(0)[0];
mult = .7;
deltaY = thisComp.layer(“Null 1”).transform.position[1]-startY;
deltaX = thisComp.layer(“Null 1”).transform.position[0]-startX;
value + [deltaX*mult,deltaY*mult]

Works like a charm!

This is for a submission to Sundance, and I know it won’t be your first, but thanks for contributing – your work indirectly appears in many great features I’m sure!

Kudos!
