Seeing is Believing & Color My World: The Art of Colorization and Pre-Visualization
Join us in June as we go from A to Z in the process of filmmaking. Allright, how about just A and Z. Namely the first process of pre-production- Pre-Visualization to the last process of post-production- Color Grading.
For years, filmmakers have been using storyboarding to create their shots visually before they went to set, but there's great limitations to that medium that the revolutionary and simple FrameForge 3D has overcome. FrameForge 3D allows moviemakers to create a virtual set using all the parameters of the real world locations and available camera gear so you can actually create a virtual duplicate of the movie before you ever step on set. The time and money that can be saved with this program is astounding. FrameForge 3D will be giving an in depth demo to this program that will leave you amazed at the possibilities of pre-visualization so you when you get to your set you are uber organized, and can focus on getting the job done well.
Apple's Brian Smith will be giving an overview of the incredibly powerful "Color" from Final Cut Pro Studio 2. If you've ever wanted to give your film that incredibly professional look then Color has come to your rescue.
Color 1.0.1, a new program introduced in Final Cut Studio 2, brings professional color correcting and finishing to the suite. Far more powerful than the basic color-correction tools found in the previous version
of Final Cut Pro, Color introduces Bezier-based masking and color-selection tools, single and multipoint optical tracking, advanced effects, and creative color-correction capabilities.
Originally developed for the frame-based DPX (Digital Picture Exchange) format commonly used for postproduction workflows in commercial and feature filmmaking, Color offers powerful and logically ordered tools that let everyone from beginners to pros work at their own skill level.
Color steps you through the grading process, which makes possible everything from a simple gamma correction of dark video to the manipulated, desaturated, grainy hues popular in sci-fi and horror movies.
So come get insight into how you can use these tools to make your films look amazing on a limited budget.
