    benymypony got a reaction from Trek of Joy in Pack of original LUTs made by myself   
    Dear EOSHD community,
    I am an independent french graphic designer and I regularly work in photo and video.
    Over the years, I created a collection of 3D LUT files to ease the color grading of my projects.
    Recently I created a pack with my 38 original LUTs.
    They are profiled on high-resolution color matrix and were built to preserve skin tones as best as possible.
    I had the chance to work with many different cameras and I spent a lot of time creating these looks and testing on raw footages, from 5DMKII and 7D with Magic Lantern, GH4, A7S, BMPC 4K, and stills from RED EPIC.
    About HDSLR, these LUTs are calibrated on CineStyle/Cinelike profiles.
    Also in my pack is included a LUT to properly « flat » a footage and get a good working basis before grading.
    Website for more infos : http://luts.iwltbap.com
    Instagram with short video samples : https://instagram.com/luts
    At the end of this post you will find some sample images before-after.
    My LUTs pack is for sale $20, but I created a discount code of -25% for EOSHD community.
    So you can get it for $15 instead of $20 via : https://sellfy.com/p/Ainy/-EOSHD
    My pack is regularly updated with new LUTs and all updates are free.
    On my website you can download a free LUT with the famous teal-orange look.
    Also, I offer for free a 4K film grain based on 35mm film scans (10sec video encoded in Apple ProRes 422 at 25fps).
    Hope you will like my LUTs.
    Best,
    Benjamin

    benymypony reacted to jgharding in How to cure banding in DSLR footage (and GH4 4K holds the key...)   
    Some 1:1 bits of  1080p clips made from a GH4 4K. test clip dowscaled to 1080p on export. The original clip comes from the other thread, and was heavily banded on purpose.
     
    We can safely say working at 4K but exporting at 1080 is good!
     
    Transcoding to 1080p at the start is just shooting yourself in the balls, but less sensible.

    benymypony reacted to Thomas Worth in Mac app to resample GH4 8 bit 4:2:0 to 10 bit 4:4:4   
    Hey guys, I've written a really simple command line app for Mac that will resample GH4 footage from 4K 4:2:0 to 2K 4:4:4 using pixel summing. This will give you real 10 bit data in the luminance channel, so it's not just doing a brute-force bump from 8 bits to 10 bits. There actually is some interesting pixel finagling going on here:
     
    http://www.mediafire.com/download/f7h950spj5hrn9f/gh444.dmg
     
    There's no GUI, so you'll need to run it from the terminal. Do this by copying the app into the directory that contains the GH4 MOV files and using the following command in a terminal:
    ./gh444 INPUTFILE.MOV Make sure you cd to the current directory first if necessary. You can do this by typing "cd" into the terminal, add a space, and then drag the folder containing the MOV files into the terminal window. It will automatically add the path to the cd command. It'll look like this:
    cd /path/to/gh4/files The app will spit numbered DPX frames out in a folder named "dpx_out."
     
    I'd love for you guys to give it a try and see if you find it useful!

    ​I shoot music videos every week and know what works for me. (www.videoink.co.uk)
    I would highly consider Sony as a camera choice for music videos. Not only do you get S-Log recording, but they are very good at making use of high frame rates (which for music videos is by far the biggest request I get). 
    The new Sony RX10 II seems to be a low budget music video makers dream. 4k, 24-200m lens and high frame rates, decent quality up to 240fps. Another camera would be the A7S, as low budget music video swings with low light locations quite often! 
    Of course, don't be foolish and forget your lighting requirements. Lighting is far more important than your camera, you have my word!

    Very Nice Pack, I like what I see. Haven't got the time to get deeper in all of them, but I have used a few I personal liked very much in a small piece of a music bands video clip. The band, named Downriver Dead men Go, number The River, played a few weeks ago, outside,  for a very good charity (heart for Lungs). I tried three Luts in this piece of clip. Samsung NX1 handheld, no external microphone, 16-50mm S lens. It was just a test.  Final Cut Pro X. Thanks for the update I received today.

    I tried using the free one you shared, Im still fidling around and understanding how to apply luts and color correct, but I can get some pretty cool results, although not natural or "film" looking, I like the look.

    benymypony reacted to Andrew Reid in The importance of firmware updates and why Panasonic are too late with V-LOG for the GH4   
    Opinion piece, by Andrew Reid
    In only a few months, 57 new features have been added to the Samsung NX1. Meanwhile Panasonic have been more keen than many to evolve their products, adding a 4K Photo mode to the GH4 and 24p for 4:3 shooting, a nod to anamorphic filmmakers. But it isn't enough. No anamorphic de-squeeze for instance and now the time it has taken for V-LOG to reach us has been too long.
    Firmware is a new battleground and manufacturers must play the game better.

    benymypony reacted to Ed_David in Ways to Improve Vimeo   
    from http://www.eddavid.tumblr.com
     
    Vimeo basically help me with my career- through a small camera test I did called, “Sexy S Log” where I tested s log on the f3 (new at the time) - an influential director and friend found me and got me into higher end commercial work.  And so did so many other films I worked on.  It is literally the best thing that helps me able to have a career.
    With that said, I have watched it since 2008 - and since then, I have noticed more and more, that there are many things it can improve.  The biggest thing too is that it needs to improve, because right now, the video quality and playback is superior on youtube.  Vimeo was started as an alternative to youtube in that it gave higher resolution and less compression than youtube.  But youtube caught up.  So now more than ever there is less reason to use vimeo than youtube, except for the community that exists there.  Basically it’s a social network for filmmakers.
    And I think they get that - with their “Staff” people always checking out videos and commenting - I love that.  You feel like you know them personally.  It’s so nice.
    Anyway here’s a quick list of ways they could improve the interface to make it more successful as a film social network.
    1.  have a “like” buttons.  so people can like comments.  or upvote or downvote a comment.  a la Reddit.  so there are also less, “thank you” short unnessicary comments
    2.  the homepage should have a feed of all the videos of the people you are following.  like a news streams like twitter or facebook.  and allow you to hide or mute people you don’t want to follow
    3.  allow users to quickly create “film festivals”  - playlists of content that inspires them.  like how spotify does it.  and feature the most popular ones.  Lilke curation - feature the most popular ones - the people with the most followers.  Or have famous filmmakers go on vimeo and find their favorite films, like spotify.
    4.  improve the search function - it’s still very hard to search for filmmakers
    5.  update the user page experience - so it’s more customized to the artist.  maybe more like imdb.  where you can quickly list films you worked on - resume style
    6.  show location and other things that users have - what cameras, where are they located - do they want to meet up?
    7. allow meet up events - film screenings, event invites - to build community - get a bunch of people together to watch films and talk about them.  maybe help create a film community in smaller areas.  connect people more globally
    8.  vimeo pro - feature more vimeo pro films - it seems like vimeo pro is where a lot of the effort is going - monitization is always a good thing - but still - for non vimeo pro - maybe still create ads on the page, so that vimeo can focus on the free content as well.  
    9. mobile friendly - still make it more social network like on the mobile browser.  
    10. notifications - allow people to know when someone commented easier and your comment is responded to - like eoshd - this helps build community and discussions
    11.  have a section just for discussion - have more forums - just for talking about filmmaking - again with minor banner ads, whats the harm, right?
    12.  allow tags to work more efficiently - like twitter.  live and die by the hashtags - to quickly allow people to find similar videos
    13.  like netflix - have other videos if you like this, you might love - to keep people on the site, to discover new videos.
    the rest of my ideas is hardware based - having faster loading of videos - those are harder issues because that costs a lot of money. 
    the ideas above is expensive too, but maybe a little less.
    anyway let me know what you think of all this.  And I will continue of course to support vimeo - I love how there

    Thank you very much Julian for your support.
    Yes, testing all LUTs takes quite some time just to switch from one to the other.
    I think the easiest way to create an automated process to preview all LUTs on a still should be a Photoshop action script.
    I'll find about it.
    Ahah, about IWLTBAP, it's a mystery...

    On Premiere Pro I use Lumetri but if I'm right the free plugin LUT Buddy from Red Giant is supported.
    Maybe it's easier to use than Lumetri.

    I've been looking for a cheap package of LUTS that work well with the GH4 and this seems to tick the box
    Just gave the free 8700 LUT a try on some clips I shot last holidays in Indonesia. Original footage (showing at the beginning of each shot) is shot with the Natural profile, don't remember the exact settings. Didn't make any other adjustments, just put the LUT on top at 100% strength.
    Looking forward to give the other LUTS a try. Does anyone know a fast way in Premiere Pro to switch between different luts?
