Ola my friends,
AD Studio did a free music video clip to a Brazilian Museum showing How 1930 Carnival was here in Brazil.
Using 10 HD cameras, one of them which could record 4000 fps, we filmed dancers in a green screen stage.
All background and old images are totally 3d.
Congrats to my AD team which did this beautifull job.
Fernando Barros, Orlando Sá, Marcio Mattos, Eric Tosseti, Rodrigo Violante.

Thanksss
Tomas Egger
Wow Tomas, very impressive ! :eek:
I especially like when the camera goes down the floor and the image revert to full color, the effect is really well made, congratulations ! 
And the 3D is seamlessly integrated, very well done. 
Cheers,
Laurent aka Tartiflette
Great work as ever, Thomas.
Nice concept and great execution and integration. What app do you used for the 3D?
;D
Is a really complex project.
Congrats

Thank you very much my friends!
3d application which I used? hmmm start with Electricimage and ends with Animation System.
Tomas
I’m need to practive my dancing a little bit more
Tomas can you share some info about the camera rig set up.
Awesome work. Can you talk a bit more about your Electricimage image crew. How long it long it took to train them and what parts of EI they use the most, or know the best?

Hey AVT!
:))
Thanksss
Tomas
LIKE WHOA!!! That’s the REAL my Friend.
Thanks.
One, you alway rent the cameras right. It’s too expensive to own, correct?
Massive Job.
Definitely highly prestigious work …Museum Quality.

BTW, does any one work with HDMI?
Or has ever digitized this type of footage. I’m interested in the benefit but never heard of this time of format. Is this an uncompressed component format at full res (1920x1080)?
HDMI being just a new type of AV connector encompassing all the current single channel DVI resolutions plus the specific HDTV ones, plus audio plus anticopy bits, ideally a HDMI video capture card ought to be able to produce and capture all these kinds of signals. In practice, I guess the available ones just do the different SD and HD formats plus audio.
Blackmagic’s Intensity cards (http://www.blackmagic-design.com/products/intensity/techspecs/) do NTSC and PAL SD, 720 and 1080. The Pro version adds analog output (component and S-Video). They look quite nifty.
Video is uncompressed, I think.
HD Format Support: 1080i50, 1080i59.94, 720p50 and 720p59.94.
SD Format Support: 625/25 PAL and 525/29.97 NTSC.
HDMI Video Sampling: 4:2:2.
HDMI Color Precision: 4:2:2.
HDMI Color Space: YUV 4:2:2.
HDMI Audio Sampling: Television standard sample rate of 48 kHz and 24 bit.
HDMI Audio Input: 2 Channels.
HDMI Audio Output: 2 Channels.
Thanks for the informative response.
I’m using a HDV Canon. After I got the right HDV/FireWire connection, I digitized at 1920x1080i (I thought it was suppose to be Progressive). Maybe there’s a 24p scan rate I’m not using. The camcorder also has a HDMI outlet. I thought it was a component outlet.
Then I saw the card on the second page of “Videomaker”, currently in stands. The article is short but brings of a few questions.
It mentions that it digitizes HDMI at 1920x1080, Uncompressed, Apple ProRes 422.
Is Apple ProRes 422, yet another format? Does it actually captures at HDTV 2k or just playback? The article is worded funny. It shuns HDV (the one I used) as being only 1440x1080 and as I mentioned is not the case. Then it states lower resolutions for capture cards rates, 1080i HD being the highest, less than HDV.
Beyond my confusion to the actual resolution, I have a concern if the card would even fit in my MacPro since I have a 512mb ATI Radeon X1900 XT taking up a slot.
Again, any insight would be helpful.

HDV is “only” 1440x1080, but thats because it uses non-square pixels. Otherwise you wouldnt get the 16/9 ratio.
Its the same difference as 768x576 (sq pixels) <-> 720x576 (non-sq. pixels). Both are 4/3, but 720x576 is only 4/3 because of its non-sq. pixels.
Hey Daniel.
You’re right. I double checked it. Still I don’t know how it’s normal size in 1920x1080. It must be the capture format I set in iMovie.
Ok. I went ahead and ordered the HDMI Black Magic. I guess it should fit.
Is there any advantage with an Apple internal 750gb drive opposed to a Hitachi.
Hitachi seems half price and has 3x longer warrantee.
Zero difference between any HD (not only Hitachi but also Seagate or Western Digital…) on the market and the Apple ones, as Apple doesn’t make any HD on its own.
As you have already noticed, the only difference is in the price !

Oh well Apple got me on this one. I wrote the company but the drive already left. It was really nice of the sales man not to “tell me”. I don’t do business like that. It was B&H in NYC. Actually I should return by hand if I take a visit.
Problem is when the card gets here and the drive, since my other drives are full, I don’t think I would want to return it.
I would like to file the other drives up with a RAID. Do I need a card for that or is software OK? Definitely will order two Hitachis. B&H definitely won’t get that sale, even if I do purchase from them again.
Funny I said Hitachi but when he mentioned Apple I thought it would better loading slot. He never told me I could save twice as much. Oh well, at least I can say…it’s Apple. haha.
