I’m going to try and hold myself back, but even in getting the answer you wanted you can’t help being a rude and arrogant.

If anything was unclear throughout this series of posts it was your incomplete sentences and sometimes unclear thoughts, don’t go getting snippy at others just because you’re not able to understand their answers (through fault of your own, not theirs).

If you don’t like the answers you get (which were easily decipherable right from the beginning by the way) then feel free to go elsewhere and pay someone to help you find what you can’t find yourself. The cow doesn’t need attitudes the likes of yours.

Smarten up.

Thanks heaps Ty.

Yep the sennheiser site says they’re all fine for me here, so I should be fine.

Thanks for the help, you answered exactly what I wanted to know. Much appreciated.

Sincerely,

Thanks heaps for that Will, thats pretty much what I’m looking for.

Just checking my maths but if it’s about 20inches wide in 16×9 thatd be about 11 1/4 inches high I believe.

Just as an aside I pretty much come from using a PD170. If the macro brings focus down to 1.5/2 inches could I put my “fish tank” there thus needing a far less wide and high tank? the liquid filling it is expensive so I’m trying to minimise the volume of the tank. apart from allowing closer focus does the macro function alter things in any other way?

Thanks again Will, sorry to bother you with this. Much appreciated.

SIncerely,
Jason

Just a point but you might have put off others from answering through the obnoxious attitude. Just something to bear in mind when seeking help in the future.

Heyey bingo.

Yes, sadly I do. I love it when every few weeks someone wanders in with a fistful of green chips and you can just see what they’re coming for. They’re always shocked when I understand what they’re coming for.

If you ever need more, I reckon this is the best recipe – get Dulux paint in a Bold Yellow base with SS 8n per litre – 8 notches of SS (Strong Green tint) per litre – it’s gold! But don’t tell anyone – it’s a schecret.

I like this thread. I actually work in the Australian equivalent of Home Depot’s paint department part-time and wanted to see what results I could get with off the shelf stuff.

I mixed a whole bunch of high intensity greens up and filmed them to compare their onscreen values. I broke down the tint, reflectivity and chrominance differences to reverse engineer what tint recipe would give the best results. I mixed a sample of that up and it did give pretty good results, better than my original trials. It’s a Dulux recipe if you can get their paint over there, I’d be happy to give you my super-secret proprietary recipe…..

Bear in mind you want the least glossy paint possible – most off the shield stuff, particularly in the more intense colour ranges will have a higher sheen, which will increase hotspots from light reflections.

And having said all of this really any of the bright greens colours were in the right area – as said earlier lighting is much more important as long as your colour is anywhere headed in the right direction.

Agree with the priming too – a VERY slightly grey colour will actually help the body of the paints colour a little better than pure white primer – but I mean VERY slightly grey, a few drops of black per gallon.

Good luck mate!

It’s not just you, I’m having the same problem. Probably about the last 6-7 AE podcasts have been doing it – the audio keeps going but the video freezes and iTunes locks up completely.

Hello Serge,

You are a god, as per usual. Thank you very much.

When I tried to open your example it says you’ve got a more recent version of AE. I was just wondering what version you’re using, as I tried to open it in both 7.0.0.244 and the CS3 beta. There appears to be no objects in the Invig effects.

Sorry Serge. Thanks again for all your help.

Sincerely,
Jase
