Dynamic HDR Test Materials

This is a collection of dynamic HDR test materials intended for test, demo and tuning of HDR display devices. Contents Surprisingly, we receive this question quite often, even for feature films where we’ve color-graded an HDR10-version and added HDR10+ dynamic metadata. The beauty of dynamic metadata is that a proper implementation acts in the background, and you overlook its work while viewing a movie.Also, if you have a TV with dynamic range capabilities close to what the mastering display could do, the effect might be relatively minor. That’s simply because aggressive tone mapping is not needed to keep image information. That said, the image quality benefits of using entry-level HDR-TVs can be quite extraordinary. This potential quality benefit is why several manufacturers took the effort of standardizing dynamic metadata in SMPTE ST 2094. We wanted to provide an easy method of testing the functionality of HDR10+ (ST 2094-40) for everyone […]

HDR-Schnelltest Pro / HDR10+

The HDR Schnelltest is an HDR video test sequence that combines static test and adjustment elements with motion picture video. The motion picture video makes the pattern itself dynamic in order to avoid the usual handling of static images by TVs. Therefore, the usual dimming of static images by many TVs is avoided. Furthermore, the motion picture sequences are selected to show specific aspects of image quality in real motion picture instead of test patches only. HDR Schnelltest Pro is available with custom motion picture backgrounds and test patches as well as in public versions on Youtube and for download. Here’s the YouTube-version, fully functional with HDR10+ metadata: Please be aware that youtube delivers SDR or HDR10 or HDR10+ based on your video client. It’s a nice test to see if HDR10 and HDR10+ with dynamic metadata passes through. You may see indications of HDR10+ in your Picture Mode GUI […]

8K resolution: Hype or benefit?

8K resolution: Hype or benefit?

by Florian Friedrich, last updated: November 15th, 2019 TV-Makers and camera manufacturers make us believe 8K is the next big thing. While more and more devices are launching, controversial discussions about the visibility of the resolution are going hand in hand with discussions about what is real 8K. This article covers the most important aspects of 8K as well as delivering some insights about 8K metrics, 8K productions and what the human eye can see. I’ve also put together also a separate article with frequently asked questions about 8K based on questions I received from attendees after my presentations.If you’re interested in getting some 8K materials for free download, please see my post about NASA 8K footage and sign up to my free 8K newsletter, which will also provide you free access to downloading more 8K clips such as a nice Dinner Clip (see Youtube-preview) making a good example for […]

 
Super Anti Aliasing Plugin

Super Anti Aliasing Plugin

Super Anti Aliasing (improved algorithms from Anti Aliasing 2) by FF Pictures (Microsoft Windows only) is maybe the best anti-aliasing solution you can find anywhere… This plugin for Davinci Resolve (OFX), Adobe After Effects and Adobe Premiere has been built to remove jagged edges, flickering details and simply give your footage a more realistic look without any disturbing pixel structures. Proven to improve picture quality in several productions by our customers, this plugin really solves an issue that seemed hard to solve previously. Smooth edges without loosing details is what you’ll get. We’ve worked hard on optimizing the performance and making it easy to use. Super Anti Aliasing works for HDR and SDR sources, while Edges are automatically detected. Thresholds can be influenced and edges can be expanded according to your production needs. A preview of the area where the plugin changes pixel values helps to adjust all values. We […]

 
Alpa Platon Project: A rigged Hasselblad H6D 100c allowing to shoot extraordinary motion picture materials.

My Alpa Platon Experience

by Florian Friedrich, February 27th, 2019 The Alpa Platon project is dedicated to adding everything a filmmaker can dream of to a Hasselblad H6D-100c camera. But let’s start from the beginning… Have you heard about large sensor digital filmmaking yet? The usual sensor size in digital filmmaking is Super 35 (S35 ~25mmx13mm, depending on the camera and aspect ratio) and some cameras like Sony Venice (36mm x 24mm) started to use full frame or bigger sensors recently. A larger sensor in general means that you can capture more pixels of the same size or increase the size of pixels on the sensor. While both approaches have their specific advantages (resolution or noise level), the downside is that you need bigger lenses to fulfill the needs of a larger sensor. So, of course, the cost for appropriate lenses considering all the high-quality glass and optics can be tremendous and must be […]
