FX7 or GH4 for sequels?

Hello, I plan to make a corporate video for our society. We don't have any available video camera

We only: SONY A57 with f 4.6 50 mm lens (company-owned) and a b with 35 mm f1.2 and adapter objective lens wide angle (my personal digital SLR, but it's just good for photos)

I do intend to rent or buy another camera. I think that 4 k camera will be good right? But 4 k is very slow in AFTER EFFECTS. in any case I have made a corporate video of 4 k before just by using a dual core PC (well, I have a good workflow for 4 k).

is it better to buy a sony HDR - FX7 or is it better if I buy a Panasonic lumix DMC - GH4 for corporate videos?

FX7 is a camera professional 1080i, is it better than a 4 k dslr?

FX7 video with AFTER EFFECT of preservation of high range retail will be better than a 4 k GH4?

and a professional camera 1080 are better than a 4 k camera unprofessional?

First of all, there is no magic camera. You get what you pay for. Some of DSLR and same GoPro make 4K and offer some amazing images, but all compressed sequences cameras cheap come with their own set of peculiarities. You had rolling shutter, compression artifacts and a bunch of other things to deal with. My suggestion would be to read the comments, upload a few images of the sample and if possible rent a camera for a production before buy a. Shooting 4K with a consumption target or even a built-in lens that is not professional standards will not get that much advantage over the filming of 1080 not compressed with the help of a professional. Purchase of equipment is simply because you want to have on hand is rarely a good idea for a business in its infancy. Understand what you really want to do with your business takes much more than just choose a camera.

  • Is there a window display and the data window as in Nuke for sequels?

    Not sure what the best way to Word this, but that's.  I wonder if there is a comparable feature in After Effects to what Nuke called the "showcase" and the data window".  I will do my best to explain my problem.  I'm jumping backwards between After Effects and Nuke.  I used After Effects extensively since version 6.5 to 2005 or 2006.  I've been tinkering with Nuke for years now, but now I'm determined to get competent in it.  One of the features I noticed Nuke who seems to be lacking in After Effects is the "bounding box/display window" that appears as a white dotted line around an image in the display window.

    Right now I'm working on a show that is My.cnf anamorphic linear exr with a deliverable 2158 x 2272 resolution.  There is a pixel 233 pad/mat up and down so that the image is actually 2158 x 1806.  If I open one of these files/shots in Nuke, I get the picture, 2158 x 1806 in the display window with a blank line dotted around her, within the metadata of the node, Nuke reading tab called the "exr/data window.  It's floating in a sturdy white box that defines the full resolution of the photo (2158 x 2272), which includes 233 pixel black padding up and down.  The anamorphic 2:1 ' squeeze' automatically' corresponds to the image in the display window 2158 x 1806 and remaining leaves 466 pixels up and down black and calls this overview read full resolution the "showcase" in the metadata tab of the node.  Nuke reads metadata exr and performs the anamorphic compression. 

    If I open the same file in after effects CC, it cannot read the exr metadata so it does not apply a squeeze anamorphic and it stretches the image of 2158 x 1806 to fit the area of 2158 x 2272 complete resolution.  I have to shrink the image to 79.5% on the Y axis to get it's good aspect ratio.  After effects 2014 and 2015 WILL read the metadata and do the squeeze automatically, BUT when you return, he makes the black bars on the top and the bottom, Cook in the file.  If this file is read Nuke, it opens fine but it will no longer be a data window around the image because the entire image is defined by both the 2158 x 1806 and 466 pixels of padding.  If I turn of Nuke, it does NOT the black padding but stretches the image 2158 x 1806 in the "data window" to mount a 2158 x 2272, defined as the size of the file "window" that gets pressed again to a 2:1 ratio when it is read in Nuke.

    It's exhausting to write so I would be surprised if anyone makes it all through in this.  Since I have to do, I'll leave this here, in the hope, I gave enough information for someone to recognize this situation.  I hope I'm missing something for After Effects to read and write these files in the same way Nuke.  I am new to the exr world.  I have always used the DPXs in the NEWSPAPER.  In order to work with linear files above them in EXRs is kinda weird too.  Thanks for reading if make you throughout this, I hope that he has no sense at all.

    With version 1.9, the plugin EXR changed its treatment of displayWindow. He used to ignore it, but now it crops the displayWindow throughout. Most people prefer this, but you can be the exception. Fortunately, there is a way to restore the old behavior with the instructions in this message.

    AE does not have this notion of dataWindow/displayWindow together, so there is no way to make an EXR this way. I suggest to make the buffer full off-AE, then perform an adjustment in Nuke to re - define the displayWindow. There is also the EXR command-line tools that can do.

    If an EXR file has a pixel aspect ratio other than 1.0 (square), which should be reflected in AE. If it wasn't for some reason, you should always be able to enforce in interpreting the film.

    Æ use the GPU for very little. See the following page: features GPU (CUDA, OpenGL) in After Effects

    Basically, the only thing AE to use is obsolete ray-traced rendering engine. The ray-traced rendering engine relied on technology CUDA from NVIDIA. It was only accelerated on some NVIDIA cards. A card AMD will never work with the ray-traced rendering engine, but it's normal because very few people using the ray-traced rendering engine! Instead, use Cinema 4 d that comes free with AE or use a third-party plugin like element or Invigorator 3d (which can use the AMD maps).

  • How to highlight an array of layers Extend script for sequels (as the mouse)?

    Can someone please share how to select a layer in after effects, like the mouse click.

    var activeItem = app.project.activeItem;

    var curTime = app.project.activeItem.time;

    var myLayers = activeItem.layers;

    var layersAtTime = [];

    for (i = 1; i < = myLayers.length; i ++) {}

    {if (myLayers [i] .activeAtTime (curTime))}

    layersAtTime [layersAtTime.length] = myLayers [i];

    }

    }

    for (j = 0; j < layersAtTime.length; j ++) {}

    layersAtTime [j]. ???

    }

    Now how to highlight layers in the layersAtTime table in after effects just like the mouse click Select. ??

    If you do not need to do other thing with these layers (IE if you want only to select), you can simply do:

    for (i = 1; i<>

    myLayers [i] .selected = myLayers [i] .activeAtTime (curTime);

    };

    He made sure no active layers are not selected.

  • moving from first pro for sequels

    Hey guys

    I use priemere pro now for a little while, and I can't wait to really start to develop my skills.

    I know very shortly after the effects and what he does, so I was wondering if someone could explain to me the differences betweeen PR and AE, and what are the benefits to get acquainted with AE?

    Thank you

    After Effects and first are two completely different products. I can't even begin to list the differences, because there are so many.

    On the technical side, I fit something I heard Rick Gerard once said:

    First and other NLE (Non Linear Editors) is specifically designed for playback of a video stream. If you pile up enough layers or effects on the video, they will have to make a new video stream based on calculations of pixel based for each pixel in the stack. This interpretation, especially for sources HD or complex plugins, will take some time. However, for cutting together a bunch of video in a story, they Excel.

    After Effects (and other compositing programs) - is image of pixels according to all the processing who act a lot like Photoshop. They calculate the values of each pixel of each frame, came up with a new pixel and then play these pixels returned as a video stream. More importantly, AE and all other pixels based compositing apps still work internally with completely uncompressed pixel data. NLE count on codecs and in some cases, hardware, the video playback.

    It's a totally different way of working with moving images.

    First is to put some shots together to tell a story. Once the effects on the creation of shots that can be used to tell a story.

    AE is for compositing, Visual effects and graphic cartoons. There is some overlap, but they are very different tools for different jobs. You pouvez together cut a scene in After Effects and you pourriez hammer a nail with a screwdriver, but are neither the tool recommended.

    Go to Vimeo or YouTube and watch a few reels of demo of motion graphics artists and composers; That is what After Effects is for.

    If you want to join us in this wonderful world of EI, COME ON IN! But please, start here: http://adobe.ly/AE_basics

    There's a much steeper curve learning for AE that he was for the first and you can't count on your NLE experience to help a lot in AE. For example, do not press the space bar to launch a preview in AE, unless you hate yourself. Solid foundation in the basics of how AE work (in the link I gave you) is necessary to avoid a lot of frustration. Don't scare you however. After a few months of working with her, it'll start to be tons of fun! I liked it so much that I worked with her for more than a decade.

Your system may be compatible with the CS6, but I'll leave you to find your own link to download CS6 because there are dozens and dozens of links to direct download already posted on this forum.

  • Cross dissolves do not appear in sequels

    I work in first pro CS5.5 and sequelae.

    I edit my images and build my sequence in the timeline panel in prem pro, but when I use the Adobe Dynamic Link to 'replace with a new after effects composition' the cross dissolves applied to the clip first pro are missing when I come back for sequels.

    So, I have a work around, which is to drag the clip on a new video track, lengthen 10 images or send after effects, FRY all the effects and colour treatment in AE, at first, re - adjust the length of the clip, low back in position and add the cross dissolve again.

    It works, but is anyone know of a better solution, or I'm about to right.

    Thank you, I'd be really interested to know the thoughts of anyone or of experience in this field

    I used Adobe products for decades... from photoshop for sequels; Since illustrator in preview.  Amazing applications that they are.

    Cloud services, however, are terrible.  Fortunately, the creative cloud was not the first adobe product, I met... If it had been I probably would have never tried another one of their products.  And who would have been miserable.

    Get your hands on yourself Adobe!  Do they not free things that are not ready.  If you went into a restaurant and ordered an omelet and they served a raw egg in a bowl, should return you to this restaurant?  Of course not!

    Any disservice is harmful.  It ruins your reputation.  The internet is filled with bad reviews and the frustrations on your cloud services.  Listen to them!  Fix it!  Bring back the old Adobe which made impossible things possible!
