Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 (edited) Where is the sweet spot? When doing post stabilization, can you get away with one setting for overscan and one setting in post or does everthing vary from film to film? Edited September 27, 2022 by Daniel D.

Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Posted September 27, 2022 Author Share Posted September 27, 2022 (edited) I don't have any 16mm examples, but is this a good amount of overscan to shoot for stabilizing flat R8mm and 16mm? Would warped film require more overscan? Edited September 27, 2022 by Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Phillips Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 what you've shown I believe should be enough. a vfx sup I know was doing that somewhat regularly on S16mm several years ago and IIRC the demo showed about this amount of sprocket hole. though if you can run it through a pin optically registered scanner I'd recommend that over manually doing it in post, just so its done 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel D. Teoli Jr. Posted September 28, 2022 Author Share Posted September 28, 2022 I thought a little sprocket area would help with stabilization. No option for pin register. Just Retroscan for now. Normally I'd do what I tell all you to do...TEST! But this is the computer I have and it is hard to test... Computer Fan To Cool 720 : DDTJRAC : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive Anything slightly intensive heats up the computer like a blow dryer. If I don't give it extra air it shuts down. And it takes hours to run one stabilizing test on a small 400-foot 16mm reel. I hope to get a better computer that is more conducive to video work. The Movavi stabilizer has a number of settings, so lots of tests needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
