Wheany posted:which matters more, though: bits-per-pixel in the final video or the bitrate when talking about 20-year old upscaled vhs uploaded to youtube? Uploading to a 2K resolution is most important because it will get the most bitrate. h.264 is smart enough to knock details down even if it's been upscaled. There's a reason why TASvideos get uploaded at 2K resolution and not 240p native. Youtube will encode your video at 4:2:0 colorspace, when you're trying to represent a 320x240 RGB video signal, you'll need at least 4x the resolution to maintain an RGB signal once downsampled to it's original resolution. 320x240 4:2:0 looks lovely. Also having 5mbps instead of .5 helps alot.

Install Gentoo posted:i really wish SED had made it to market quote:A surface-conduction electron-emitter display (SED) is a display technology which has been developing various flat panel displays by a number of companies as electronic visual displays. SEDs use nanoscopic-scale electron emitters to energize colored phosphors and produce an image. In a general sense, a SED consists of a matrix of tiny cathode ray tubes, each "tube" forming a single sub-pixel on the screen, grouped in threes to form red-green-blue (RGB) pixels. it sounds cool an d monstrously complicated all at the same time

"perfect" isnt always the feeling of choice I respect your choice of aesthetic, and your choice to use modern gear to achieve it without the inconveniences of film and also point to my medium format camera that not only does that by itself, but has better dynamic range and gives me ~130 megapixel photos, and I paid $150 for it it also is able to fit ten entire photos on a single roll of film atomicthumbs fucked around with this message at 10:32 on Jul 9, 2013 |

You won't be able to easily "un-do" the film look. Also when you blow 3x your budget on the spot they will find someone else to do it. digitally and just use one of these film LUTs to make it happen.

a professional color grader will tell you that tastefully saturing certain color channels is what will give your image a premium look. Using a full 1D LUT on your image will certantly make it look shittier unless it's shot in some goofy log space on an arri alexa.

jackdh4x0r posted:also realtalk: it's because ntsc is lol trash and it's easier for engineers to write it that way... back before color was A Thing it was: front porch, sync pulse, back porch, luma front porch is basically a reset area which normalizes everything and back porch was originally just an area to reset the black levels due to the sync burst before shoving luma out then color came about and engineers go "by george! let's shove color burst in the back porch! then when the sync rolls over and the burst hits, we can use the color burst with a chroma signal to get color!" and everyone went "holy poo poo! this works!" so then everyone started re-writing the signal to show the back porch first because it made more sense in terms of how the picture was drawn flyboi fucked around with this message at 15:35 on Jul 9, 2013 |
