Fresh Paint: TCM 31 Days of Oscar
Posted in: academy awards, broadcast design, Brooklyn, editing, General, oscars, promoSome of you may remember Fresh Paint’s stunning promo for TCM’s 31 Days of Oscar event from last year. This year’s reprise uses the same basic structure but manages to top the original somehow.
Both promos “star” a masterfully cut montage, which on its own would be an achievement. But the real magic is in the interplay between the screen and the set, a metaphorical armature that works brilliantly for a promo built around the Academy Awards.
I’m glad that TCM and Fresh Paint both found the courage and energy to take on this project again. Whille I’m not sure it’ll work for a third year, this encore is a welcome gift.

Polish Art to Terrify Children With.
Posted in: art, Gallery, Justyna Koeke, MusclesWe couldn’t find out much about polish (or dutch?) artist Justyna Koeke. From what we could gather: basically, an art piece is installed at a gallery and Justyna has these two day glo muscled goons run in mid opening to destroy everything. We think that’s what is happening.

A new word to use in our profession.
Posted in: The PadCompover.
The definition of having a compover is to have worked too long on a composite (one or multiple) for an extended period of time resulting in lack of sleep and extreme tiredness.
The word is drawn from the words composite and hangover. Compover should never be confused with a comb over.
I have a terrible compover right now.
3d renders making a scene!
Posted in: Digital Fusion / DFX+I’m very new on this forum, and also very noobish with Fusion.
My problems will be very basic, but I searched on the forum and couldn’t find a direct answer.
I’ve rendered a little scene, very simple, a background and a main character in the front.
1: My first problem. The character is a targa without alpha, so I made one seperately from it.
Now if I try to merge my background with my character, I only see my …character.
So where do I need to place my alpha?
2: I rendered a Zbuffer for my background, and it would be super if I know how to adjust it, but I don’t.
3: How to resize my scene? I rendered it out in PAL widescreen so it’s stretched?
I hope I can find my answers here so I can post my results. Cheers
can someone tell me whic output format of files for stereo movie for showing in cinema?
