Blend up to 11 nearby frames together, while preserving all detail
VectorFrameBlend can average/median/min/max/plus up to +- 5 frames with full motion awareness. Compared to the last version or other similar solutions, I built it as technically correct as possible and it provides thorough settings to improve the filtering quality and edge cases (literally).
You can also use the ‘External’ mode and connect the ‘vec’ input to another VectorFrameBlend, to use its internally generated vectors.
This can be useful, if you want to analyse a certain layer (for example a diffuse color pass that holds a lot of clean details), but apply the frame blending on somewhere else. Apart from that, the tool can of course be used on live action plates, utility passes or whatever comes to mind.
The prevalence of myopia is increasing rapidly, with projections indicating that by 2050, around half of the global population could be affected. This surge is largely attributed to lifestyle changes, such as increased time spent indoors and on screens, and decreased outdoor activities, starting with the Covid lock down.
To combat this epidemic, researchers are advocating for more outdoor exposure for children, as natural light is beneficial in slowing the progression of myopia. They also emphasize the importance of regular eye check-ups and early interventions. Additionally, innovative treatments such as specially designed contact lenses and low-dose atropine eye drops are being explored to manage and reduce the progression of myopia.
“Joining Stability AI is an incredible opportunity, and I couldn’t be more excited to help shape the next era of filmmaking,” said Legato. “With dynamic leaders like Prem Akkaraju and James Cameron driving the vision, the potential here is limitless. What excites me most is Stability AI’s commitment to filmmakers—building a tool that is as intuitive as it is powerful, designed to elevate creativity rather than replace it. It’s an artist-first approach to AI, and I’m thrilled to be part of it.”
An exposure stop is a unit measurement of Exposure as such it provides a universal linear scale to measure the increase and decrease in light, exposed to the image sensor, due to changes in shutter speed, iso and f-stop.
+-1 stop is a doubling or halving of the amount of light let in when taking a photo
1 EV (exposure value) is just another way to say one stop of exposure change.
Same applies to shutter speed, iso and aperture.
Doubling or halving your shutter speed produces an increase or decrease of 1 stop of exposure.
Doubling or halving your iso speed produces an increase or decrease of 1 stop of exposure.
