Hey Everybody, I'm the writer/director of an upcoming horror short titled, The Night Delivery. We're shooting in mid-March up in the SF Bay Area and have some great people on board. Check out our crowdfunding page and please spread the word...

Hey hey hey Any way to increase the maximum 35mbps for H264 blu ray preset that appears in Compressor and Adobe Media Encoder? I need to increase due to banding issues that's appearing when using the preset. I've done a few work around including changing the mulitplexer in ME, but Encore...

Hey everybody, The post learning curve continues.... Authoring Blu Ray and DVD's from Encore. I have an Lt/Rt mix and a 5.1 mix. Anyone have any idea how to properly get these files into Encore for playable options on the DVD/Blu Ray? I'm exporting the h.264 blu ray from Premiere, but I'm...

Hey all, More questions about some small technical issues before finalizing my project. 1. Noticed when viewing on a flatscreen TV yesterday that whenever I cut to black in the short, or even when my titling fades to another name, the TV was dropping the black levels to COMPLETE BLACK. It...

Hey all, Anybody know how to avoid the white flicker/strobe effect that happens when you have a slow fade in from white? It's not horrible, but definitely noticeable. The work was done in After Effects. I dropped the white to 95, but not sure what else I can do to get rid of this? Is it...

Hey All, If compressing to H264 720p is it better to go from a Prores 4444 file, or can I go from a Prores 422 (hq) file? Would the quality loss be negligible? Thanks!

Hey All, Here's my problem. Have a grade done already in Davinci Resolve. Getting DPX files back from my VFX artist to place back in Resolve and apply the final grade. All is working fine. (So in resolve I have a mix of r3d files and dpx files.) But, since I'm operating Resolve Lite there is...

Hey All, Two quick questions regarding ending credits. I've tried none of these yet so anybody who has let me know what you think. All credits are going to be really simple (white over black). Question 1: 1. After getting final color graded output from colorist - bringing back into...

Hey all, Quick question and would love everyone's opinion on this. I typically have worked with FCP 7 a lot in the past, where it was ProRes pretty much all the way. But with the explosion of Premiere and all the new cameras (digital) I'm not so sure I'm viewing all possible options? And...

Hey everyone, Quick question regarding post workflow for sound for the audio experts out there. I also am speaking with a few different composers, still undecided who I'm going with, to score the film. I'm pretty unfamiliar with the professional workflow and what i should be getting from the...

Hey all, I feel like I'm blasting this forum with too many posts. So I'll try to make this quick. I've been looking in DCP requirements, etc. As Jax has pointed out in a previous discussion we had on this, 2.39 is the norm. All my r3d files from a shoot say they're 2:4:1. I'm mastering...

Hi all, I posted recently on something similar but now I have a couple possible avenues for the post work depending on who I end up going with (VFX/CC people) Here are the two options and how I'm understanding is the best workflow for each. Please critique anything you see being wrong...

Hey Everybody, Looking around for festivals for my short film. It has a ghost/horror element to it (not slasher type), so trying to focus on that element, but also open to others. It's easy to find countless festivals, but I'm hoping to learn more about quality fests that are around the U.S...

Hey everybody, I've had a few posts going in the post production forum. Getting things locked up picture wise, and now trying to get some info for the audio mix. I have a short film running 26 minutes. I've read a few posts on here that were very informative regarding cost and the process of...

Hey Everybody, I recently shot a short film as I mentioned in another post about CC, on the RED Epic at 4K, 2:4:1 ratio. So 4096 x 1708 In editing, I've had to reframe shots, many times punching in. I'm on the cusp of either mastering in 2k or 1080p. My goal would of course to get into some...

Hello all, I recently wrote and directed a short (on RED Epic). I'm now in the post stage. I'm an editor so I did that myself, but when it comes to VFX and color grading my experience is limited and I don't want to do it myself, wasting hours of learning programs when I'd much rather prefer a...
