Film Is Dead!

Terence Curren | 11/04- 07:04 AM

...and a bunch of other topics on the latest Terence & Philip show.

image

In this episode Philip & I cover a series of topics starting with large sensor cameras in production, the November 3 announcements from Canon Professional video, RED and Avid. Then on to the death of film, the cinema experience, and the problems of 3D.

We’ve been predicting the demise of the Mac Pro in the current form fact for some time, and during this early October recording, we discuss what has this week become rumor: the demise of the heavy iron workstation. (And the value of SSD.)

I report from the Monitor shootout day sponsored by the Hollywood Post Alliance, and HPA sponsored workflows.

We also get onto the future of Apple after the loss of Steve Jobs (just like everyone else!), leading to a discussion of who invented what?

The implications of Siri for postproduction: specialist tools vs generalists tools.

The CRT Replacement Is Here…Finally!

Terence Curren | 10/03- 11:41 PM

Sony Trimaster OLED monitors really deliver.

image

With the death of CRTs, those of us who needed to critically evaluate video images in a standardized display universe were left with no adequate replacement. Most of us have been nursing along our aging CRT monitors and hoping something of equal or better quality would arrive before our trusted displays give up the ghost. Well, that product has finally arrived, and I predict that Sony is going to own the pro monitor market for delivering it.

The Templatorization of “Creativity”

Terence Curren | 09/28- 05:05 AM

Is there any room left for new ideas, or are we doomed to work on repeats of previous projects forever?

image

The trend toward basing creative endeavors on templates has been with us for many years, culminating in Hollywood’s use of its history as templates for its current production.

Whether this is a good or bad thing depends on whether you value your personal creativity, or you’re pushing a budget to get a project finished.

Click on the link below to play the latest Terence & Philip Show as we confront the good, the bad and the ugly of formulaic content creation.

Is This The New Model of Financing Your Project?

Terence Curren | 07/05- 09:44 PM

Financing is scarce. The world is changing. How do you navigate the new waters?

image

Sponsored movies of the 70′s and 80′s were the precursor to Branded Entertainment, and it’s a major way of getting funded today.
But is it the future? 
Philip and I discuss examples and why it might be more successful in the new paradigm of commoditized content creation.

Is Netflix the “New” Studio Model?

Terence Curren | 04/04- 08:01 PM

Netflix is making it’s own programming now. What does this mean for the existing networks and cable outlets?

Philip and I consider the changes to the financial dynamics caused by Netflix’s funding of “House of Cards.” Is Netflix a new studio model?  Where’s the opportunity for innovation in programming if everything is data driven? Are we trading one set of controllers for another?

No More HDCAMSR Stock! Now What?

Terence Curren | 03/26- 02:11 PM

The tape shortage crisis and what it means to production and post.

Terence and Philip start discussing the tape shortage crisis – particularly HDCAM SR – caused by the situation in Japan: is tape dead, or will it merely lead to a resurgence of D5? Who’s accepting file-based delivery, is that even practical, and who gets to drive the need for tape delivery?

Remember, “No-one ever voluntarily changes their workflow”!

Considerations of tape shortage leads to discussion on archiving non-tape sources, and the issues surrounding that.

Thunderbolt!

Terence Curren | 03/18- 07:17 AM

What impact will this blazing new technology have on our world?

image

You’ve likely heard about the new interconnect technology called Thunderbolt. With two 10 Gbit/sec channels this has some interconnect power, at budget pricing. It’ll make a big difference when momentum gathers.
How will affect production and post production?
What will it do to the future of computers?
Will Apple still need to make towers?
Philip Hodgetts and I debate this and more on episode 22 of the Terence&Philip show.

How Would You Build The Entertainment Business From Scratch?

Terence Curren | 02/12- 09:16 AM

In a democratized green field, how different would a new studio look now?

Philip & I originally talked about the concept of starting over in production with a green field – no established starting points – in episode 11.
In this episode we take it a little deeper as there is a lot of ground to cover.
How would a new studio look? What would distribution look like? Would it be a return to the studio system approach of old?
These are just a few of the many areas we tackle in this episode of the Terence & Philip show.

2D Footage with a Stereo 3D Rig in After Effects CS5.5

Jeff Foster | 02/10- 06:09 PM

Edit and Optimize 2D Stereo Pairs from a 3D Video Camera or Twin Cameras with a Modified Stereo 3D Rig in After Effects CS5.5

Adobe included a 1-step option to create a 3D Stereo Camera Rig in After Effects CS5.5, to everyone’s enthusiasm for a simpler workflow in 3D space. Great if you are working in 3D space in After Effects, but what about an easy option for 3D Stereo pairs captured by a 3D camera or twin cameras on a rig? In this tutorial I’ll show you how to quickly modify the Stereo 3D Rig in After Effects to quickly mux your L&R video files and adjust the convergence for anaglyph, interlaced or stereo pairs output.

How to get the “24p” look for your live-switched multicam shoot

Allan Tépper | 02/10- 04:23 PM

A contracted article, sponsored by Datavideo Corporation.

Our friends at Datavideo recently asked me to write an article called How to get the “24p” look for your live-switched multicam shoot. The article covers many factors involved in accomplishing that goal, including framerate, aperture, shutter speed, depth of field, and menu settings in Datavideo’s digital HD video mixers (“switchers”) and recorders, and also the menu settings in several pro cameras from Canon, Panasonic, and Sony. The included chart explains which of the cameras have a direct HD-SDI output, and which require an optional converter to go from HDMI to HD-SDI to connect to the Datavideo digital HD video mixer. As you’ll see in the article, the approach is quite different from the workflows I normally cover, which are more appropriate when programs are to be edited, as opposed to when they are shot —and potentially broadcast— live. The graphics for this article were done by Victory Elliot of Datavideo Corporation.
