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.
With Autodesk’s acquisition of technology known as Consilium, machine learning-driven generative scheduling is coming to Shotgun Software, which will enable more accurate bidding, scheduling, and resource planning decisions.
Machine learning is being brought to production management with generative scheduling in Shotgun, currently in early testing. For producers and production managers, this will make the manual and complex challenge of optimized scheduling and resource planning more dynamic, controllable, and predictive. This feature set will allow producers to plan faster, with greater accuracy and agility to help their teams produce the best work possible.
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.
sRGB: A standard “web”/computer-display RGB color space defined by IEC 61966-2-1. It’s used for most monitors, cameras, printers, and the vast majority of images on the Internet.
Rec. 709: An HD-video color space defined by ITU-R BT.709. It’s the go-to standard for HDTV broadcasts, Blu-ray discs, and professional video pipelines.
Why they exist
sRGB: Ensures consistent colors across different consumer devices (PCs, phones, webcams).
Rec. 709: Ensures consistent colors across video production and playback chains (cameras → editing → broadcast → TV).
What you’ll see
On your desktop or phone, images tagged sRGB will look “right” without extra tweaking.
On an HDTV or video-editing timeline, footage tagged Rec. 709 will display accurate contrast and hue on broadcast-grade monitors.
