    April 27, 2023 at 7:44 am in reply to: Export 4k with proxies for Frame i/o

    I hope these suggestions help you export your 4K project using proxies in Avid Media Composer.

    • Choose the right export settings: In the Export Settings window, choose the H.264 codec and set the resolution to 1920×1080 (or 1280×720 if you want to reduce the file size even further). Also, set the data rate to around 10-15 Mbps for a good balance of quality and file size.
    • . Use Avid’s Proxy Workflow: Avid has a built-in Proxy Workflow that allows you to easily switch between high-resolution and low-resolution versions of your media. To enable it, go to Settings > Media Creation and check the “Create Proxy Media” box. Once you’ve created proxies, you can switch to them in the Source Browser by selecting the “Proxy” tab.
    • Use the FrameFlex tool: If you’ve already created proxies, you can use Avid’s FrameFlex tool to scale your 4K footage down to 1080p for export. Simply select your clip in the timeline, go to the FrameFlex tab in the Source Settings window, and set the Frame Size to 1920×1080. You can then export your sequence as normal.
    • 4. Test your export settings: Before exporting your entire sequence, try exporting a short clip using your chosen export settings to make sure the quality is acceptable. You can also try adjusting the data rate to see how it affects the file size and quality.

    Best Regard

  • It’s not uncommon for new versions of software to have some changes or issues that affect the workflow, even if the changes are intended to improve the software overall. As for the issue you mentioned with the render queue in Maxon Cinema 4D v2023.2, it’s possible that the software may have changed the way that the render queue works or that there may be a bug or issue with the current version.

    To troubleshoot this issue, you can try the following:

    1. Check the render queue settings: Make sure that the render queue settings are configured to save the current job list when you stop rendering. To do this, go to the Render Queue settings and check the option to “Save job list when render stops”.

    2. Try rendering a new job: If the render queue is not picking up where it left off, try rendering a new job and see if the issue persists. This can help determine whether the issue is specific to the current job or a more general problem with the render queue.

    3. Contact Maxon support: If the issue persists, you can reach out to Maxon support for further assistance. They may be able to provide additional guidance or help identify any bugs or issues with the current version of the software.

    Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the clip has a lot of variations in color and exposure, which can be challenging to fix. Here are a few approaches that you can try:

    1. Use color grading tools: In DaVinci Resolve, you can use the color grading tools to adjust the exposure, contrast, and color of the clip. You can use the scopes to analyze the color values of the clip, and then adjust the color grading controls to bring the colors into balance. You may need to make adjustments to each individual shot or frame to get the best results.

    2. Use automated color correction: If you don’t want to manually adjust each frame, you can use the automated color correction tools in DaVinci Resolve. You can try using the “Color Match” feature, which will analyze a reference clip and match the colors of your problem clip to the reference. You can also use the “Auto Color” feature, which will attempt to automatically adjust the colors of the clip based on the overall color balance.

    3. Use keyframing to adjust exposure: If the exposure changes are the main issue, you can use keyframing to adjust the exposure of the clip frame-by-frame. You can add keyframes to the exposure controls and then adjust them to match the brightness and exposure of each individual frame.

    4. Use a secondary color correction: If there are specific areas of the clip that have different color values or exposure, you can use the secondary color correction tools to adjust those specific areas. You can use the Power Windows to select the area that you want to adjust, and then use the color grading controls to make the necessary adjustments.

    April 23, 2023 at 4:48 am in reply to: Effect of throwing sunglasses onto a face

    If you are trying to hide a string from a video where it is in front of the face, you could use a technique called rotoscoping. Rotoscoping is a process where you manually trace around an object or area in each frame of a video, and then use the traced shape to create a matte or mask that isolates that area from the rest of the video.

    To use rotoscoping to hide a string in front of a face, you would first need to import your video into a video editing or compositing software that supports rotoscoping, such as Adobe After Effects or Nuke. Then, you would need to create a shape that covers the string in each frame of the video where it is visible in front of the face. This could involve creating multiple shapes to account for any changes in lighting or movement in the video.

    Once you have traced the string in each frame, you can use the shape or shapes to create a matte or mask that isolates the area of the video that you want to keep, while hiding the string. You can then place the isolated area on top of a new background or layer, or composite it back into the original video.

    Keep in mind that rotoscoping can be a time-consuming and tedious process, especially for longer videos or more complex shapes. However, with patience and attention to detail, you can achieve a seamless result that hides the string effectively.

    April 23, 2023 at 4:36 am in reply to: 81-Square Grid for 1×1 Cropping

    Yes, you can use an 81-square grid for cropping your photo into a 1×1 aspect ratio. The 81-square grid will give you more options for centering your photo compared to a 9-square grid.

    To use an 81-square grid for 1×1 cropping, you can follow these steps:

    1. Open your photo in an image editing software that supports grids, such as Adobe Photoshop or Canva.

    2. Create a new layer on top of your photo layer and draw an 81-square grid on it using the grid tool.

    3. Adjust the opacity of the grid layer so that you can see your photo underneath.

    4. Use the grid lines as a guide to crop your photo into a 1×1 aspect ratio. You can use the center square of the grid as the center point for your crop.

    5. Once you have positioned your crop within the center square, you can adjust the size of the crop to your liking.

    By using the 81-square grid, you will have more precise control over the placement of your photo within the 1×1 aspect ratio. Good luck with your editing!

  • Yes, there are a few options available for using your IDX battery with a D-Tap connector to power your Canon EOS R5C camera.

    One option is to use a third-party DC coupler with a D-Tap connector, such as the IndiPRO Tools D-Tap to Canon LP-E6 Dummy Battery. This device will allow you to connect your IDX battery to your camera via a D-Tap connector, providing power to your camera. However, it’s important to make sure that the voltage and current output of your battery are compatible with your camera, so be sure to check the specifications before using this option.

    Another option is to use a D-Tap to DC coupler converter cable, such as the Andycine D-Tap to DC Cable. This cable has a D-Tap connector on one end and a 5.5mm x 2.5mm DC connector on the other end, which can be used to connect to your Canon DC Adaptor DR-E6C. This will allow you to power your EOS R5C camera using your IDX battery with a D-Tap connector.

    I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any more questions.

    April 23, 2023 at 4:22 am in reply to: Gather a glowing stars in space to shape a moon

    Hello! I understand that you are trying to use the RG Particular plugin to create a scene where glowing stars in space gather together to form a moon. Here are some general steps that may help you achieve your desired effect:

    1. Create a new composition in After Effects and add a solid layer to it. This will serve as your background layer.

    2. Add the RG Particular plugin to the solid layer.

    3. In the plugin settings, adjust the emitter settings to create a stream of glowing stars. You can adjust the size, color, and behavior of the stars to your liking.

    4. Use keyframes to animate the stars, making them move towards the center of the composition. You can also adjust the particle velocity and gravity settings to make the stars move in a more natural way.

    5. Once the stars have gathered in the center of the composition, use another layer to create the moon. You can use a circular shape layer or a pre-made moon graphic.

    6. Use keyframes to animate the moon layer, making it grow in size as the stars gather around it. You can also adjust the opacity and color of the moon to make it look more realistic.

    These are just general guidelines to get you started. The specific settings and techniques will depend on the effect you are trying to achieve and the specific version of the RG Particular plugin you are using. I suggest experimenting with different settings and watching tutorials online to get a better understanding of how the plugin works. Good luck!

    April 23, 2023 at 4:17 am in reply to: Looking for a way to animate a dynamic web

    Yes, using puppet pins could be a great solution for animating the nodes and lines. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how you can use puppet pins to create the animation you’re looking for:

    1. Create a new composition in After Effects and import your circular nodes as separate layers. Place them where you want them to be in the beginning of the animation.

    2. Create a new solid layer and draw a line using the Pen tool. Make sure the stroke width is set to the desired thickness.

    3. With the line layer selected, go to Layer > Auto-trace. This will convert the line into a shape layer with a stroke path.

    4. Open the shape layer and add puppet pins by selecting Layer > Auto-trace > Create Puppet Pins.

    5. Add puppet pins to the line at the beginning and end points of each node.

    6. Select the puppet pin tool and use it to animate the position and rotation of the nodes. As you move the nodes, the lines will adjust their length and angle to fit the new position.

    7. Continue to add puppet pins to the lines as needed, adjusting the length and angle of each line to match the movement of the nodes.

    8. Preview your animation to make sure the lines and nodes move smoothly.

    9. Once you are happy with the animation, export your composition by selecting Composition > Add to Render Queue.

    I hope that helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
