Motion retouching...
Hi folk, What do you think about motion retouching... Do you think it's new market for retouchers? Now 4K products will be accessible for prosumer this years... At least it's still expensive... But the new BM 4K for 4k$, I think it's good price start point and Sharp 4K monitor will be a must tool to have! You could view some of my work at www.finaltouch.vg under motion retouching tab and for private content, please contact me! Your feedbacks are welcome. Thank you! Regards, V+ Apr 12 13 08:31 pm Link Impressive. I would like to know more regarding rates, would you PM me what it costs to do that type of work. Pick any video you like and cost it out for me. Thank you! Apr 13 13 06:54 pm Link I've been considering doing some beauty motion. But stupidly didn't even consider the retouching aspect of it, which would be just as necessary as retouching stills. Shoot, there goes that project indefinitely.

The OP's reels actually do a solid job of illustrating what the current applications are capable of doing for you (god bless point / feature tracking!).

I wonder how well this would work using their VPN tools on your own work, when you have 3 months only, busy with their sample footage taking the course? Apr 13 13 10:44 pm Link Hi folk, Thank you for you comments... For myself, I made some tools for Nuke to achieve quick turn around to retouch like Photoshop. I'm still working to find a solution for long shot retouching with less time consumming. But, still have a lot of problem to deal with occlusion for live recording and retouching. Cheers!

Apr 28 13 10:18 am Link a Japanese company Foton Inc is working on such software which would make things easy for motion retouching. they did a demo last yr. did anyone get that? n i think their best part is, it can be retouched in Photoshop. so, might be a plugin kinda software. http://www.echitwan.com.np/?p=699 Apr 28 13 10:25 am Link Yeap! I was in touch with them! They not use any plugins... Just a good workflow with Nuke, but they also have a strong workhorse software ; Flame from Autodesk ( around 1200$/h to rent a room to edit) Many people made a mistake about what they are doing... It's not something really news for the insiders... Like Photoshop 20 years ago no body knows about retouching and before Photoshop we have Scintex, Retouch Adam Machine and so on... I think it's still belong to highend market with really big budget!!! Cheers! V+ Apr 28 13 06:55 pm Link Wow, the world has come a long way. Back in the 90s we used to have to go in and use Photoshop frame-by-frame. It was a big PITA.

Where you could use Mocha Planar tracking much more successfully. I use to even tried to work out workflows where I used PF tracks (2011 +) Feature tracking engine and exported and converted them over. They're fantastic motion analysis tools but they're largely inflexible and at times over cumbersome in the processing power needed for luminancy and motion blur analysis models that may not successfully work. In real world situations you're going to have untrackable flashing lights over the surface of the skin, or shadows crossing the surface..or motion blur where someone is not just standing conveniently still. Real world production schedules requires you to do a complicated 48 frame shot in an hour or less. Which includes, Cloning, Warping and over all masking. So relying on getting everything by hand key framing it is a must. Dec 16 13 01:51 pm Link |
