well I finally got a decent convert. Threw a QT ini and vdf into vdub and it worked like a charm. At least that ordeal is over with.

but now onto the green screen. I share your pain Rei

(and probably your afx

...the one without keylight *sigh*)

the fact that I still see green is driving me crazy too~
It's hard upping the threshold enough to take it all out without it chewing away at the wrong things....maybe I can get the formula right after playing around some more.

Same here! I got frustrated chroma keying the dance shot T_T their feet keeps dissapearing...
the part where the wall meets the floor is the worst!

the close up is a bit easier, though.

by the way, If I bought some footage from say, videocopilot.com or somewhere, I'm allowed to use it for this OPV, right?

Sukoshi · « **Reply #22 on:** May 16, 2009, 12:11:17 PM »

if your purchase includes commercial use instead of just personal use then I think you can use it.

as for the green line where the wall meets the floor

I managed to get rid of it by setting my green to 41 244 24
the thing that still bugs me about the dance shot is the stupid green glow. Ugh it's either keep the glow or lose some hats and legs >__<!

and then I thought to make a background with the glowy colours so it wouldn't stand out

lol the irony...removing the green screen to add in a green background....

and the horrors of wanting decent colouring...the glow comes back with a vengeance

Well, when I asked my OPV-maker girlfriend (TheKueken)
Eh?

Did I say something odd?

she said she wasn't sure because "I can't make them make out with each other with that footage"
Just imagine their reactions if an OPV like that showed up.

Yeah, I'm betting that would be deemed a violation of:

Quote from: Official Rules

Any submitted work that is deemed damaging to the artist's image by the contest management will be deleted from MySpace.

I actually have an idea for the OPV, but I severely lack the skill and patience to do it... and it would have to be a forum-wide effort, honestly. ^^;;

Dude!!! that works for me

thanks! the line is gone ^_^ (though i think the glow is there to stay, haha)

as for the glow... D'you think you can use the "change to color" effect so that the glow changes color? I haven't tested this, but the thought just occurs to me

But your project is looking very good

Wow, It was easier for me than I thought (still took me a good 10 hours or so

)

Here's mine:

Wow..that is awesome, elgie!

Watching the girls look at the videos made me want to do this even more...@_@

Thank you

I would've liked to brighten a bit up the colors, but it's been my first attempt at chroma keying and I was constrained by my own lack of ability. Still, the pictures I took for the background are very adequate for the resulting colors.
But I've been watching the other submissions and they've given some ideas. I'll probably stick with this one, but in case of emergency I'll try some other more acid-looking one.
BTW, there are some submissions that are just, WOW! But I don't give up yet

Datalanche · « **Reply #32 on:** May 25, 2009, 01:06:34 AM »

That is really good!

I played with PowerDirector for an evening just to see what I could do, but I couldn't even sync the clips up to the audio, much less get to mucking with the green screen.

I think I'll just have to pass. I'm not very good with this stuff and I get frustrated too easily trying to do something creative with video.

Edit: To hell with what I just said. I'm going to go for it. I know I will not win, come close, and it may just be downright mediocre, but I want to make one, so.. I am.

I am so going to regret this once I see how bad it ends up, but oh well, no guts no glory!

elgie · « **Reply #33 on:** May 25, 2009, 11:48:43 AM »

Well, I can give some tips of help with the sync/edit stuff. If your software allows multritracking - which I suppose it does- load one long video which you'll use as "background" (Once you've applied the chroma filter and rendered it in a new video). Then add the parts you want to edit in another track above the "background". Preview the new track until you find which part you want to keep and crop it. Put a bookmark in the beginning of the clip so that you can cut and paste it onto the "background" track(You don't need to do this, but I've noticed it saves a lot of time while rendering the video to its definite version). This will work fine for the long videos (the dance, close-ups and "long" shots) 'cause they have the exact same lenght. As for the shortest clips, you'll have to mess around a little with them.

Maybe you'll have to adjust the audio so that it starts before the video timeline ( I had to in mine, but I'm not sure whether it's due to a mistake I did while rendering). It's a good thing, though, since it'll allow you to add the title credits.

Sukoshi · « **Reply #34 on:** May 25, 2009, 01:02:19 PM »

Okay for those with timing issues, I took a screenie of the sync I have

I haven't rendered it yet so you'll have to double check your finished product to make sure it's perfect but it's just to give you an idea of how much you have to forward your close ups, etc. to get the singing to match up.

hahaha I've been watching the OPV's on the myspace page and this one is just crazy funny

^ Yep, I loved it.
At H!O someone mentioned the huge similarity between Pharrell's My Drive Thru video

.

So I guess the final submissions in total is 407 videos. Pretty good.
Forgot to post my submission, so here is my sister and my submission for the OPV contest. Cant believe it's over. Time flew, wish we had more time to add things but overall we both loved working on it.
