AF103国外视频,酷炫宝马家族创作手记

#创作手记#

这个视频在当时一出来的时候,许多人就围猜测制作过程,灯光啊,调色啊,后期啊。其实这只是个测试片,只是人家玩测试都玩得像作品啊,有木有!

This is a DEMO-SHOOT : nothing really representable.
This is just an attemp to explore my new camera and to give some people here in Germany an idea, how - for example- an imagefilm could look like (quality-wise).

No "real" color-correction - used the 3 way cc tool in finalcut, to adjust the color in the fastest way I can.Shot spontaniously in one day at BMW/Mini Reisacher here in Ulm/Germany -and edited in one night.Although I definatly need some training and time with the AF101, I can admit, that I really, really like it very much!

很多人会以为这个片子是BMW掏钱做的客片,作者cinematicz(VIMEO上的昵称)说,这绝对不是BMW掏钱的,不过是他自己用来测试下自己新买的AF101(国内是AF103),至于那家BMW 店为啥让他拍,就无从知晓了。(说实话,如果我是店主,我也愿意让这样的高手拍啊,还是免费的)。
作者表示本片用了1天拍摄,1个晚上剪辑完成。这个片子没有做真正意义上的调色,也就是用FCP的三色球简单的调了调。
在VIMEO上,作者说自己绝对还需要很多的摸索才能真正用好这个AF101,要努力!
这个片子用到的器材,注意了,木有用到任何灯了(不用翻译了吧:)):
- Camera: Panasonic AG-AF101 (Europe)
- Lens: Olympus Zuiko 14-35mm 1:2.0 (A Wow Lens - but really HEAVY! - 这个镜头超重的,哈哈)
- Steadycam from Glidecam
- Selfmade Glidetrack
- Dolly
关于镜头,这哥们强烈推荐了福伦达F0.95 25mm的那个镜头,尽管在这个片子里他木有用。
我综合了下作者在VIMEO上和其他朋友的讨论内容,大致梳理了下他制作这个片子的更多信息,共大家参考:
1、作者表示自己拍摄此片并没有做特别的参数设置,反正没有对参数进行的研究和牛逼的调整,很抱歉,木有找到他得拍摄参数,有找的童鞋请补充啊。(我不太确定翻译是否准确,原文:the AF100 wasn\'t used as it should - in other words: it was used very quick and dirty (setting- & adjustment-wise).)
2、有人从画质上来看,以为本片一定用了外置记录仪什么的,不过,作者明确表示,木有用外接的,用的原生AVCHD,SD卡记录,1080 25P拍摄,变帧拍摄用的是1080P @50fps。
3、作者对于此机器的出场设置表示很糟糕,建议一定要调整相关参数。我不确定这个人是不是AF103的托,他表示这个机器在这个价位上所提供的功能是在是性价比太高了,顶天了(我靠!)。本片作者还对大量在发表出来的AF103的视频表示了意见,那些视频看起来和那些看起来很爽的5D和F3视频比起来,实在没得看。这哥们充满情绪的说(我觉得是又情绪滴,呵呵),那些很水的AF103视频,只有一个原因:不是一个真正专业的人在拍摄,没有把这个机器当成专业的器材来用。他觉得,只要用好了,用正确的方式来拍摄,一个名副其实的专业制作者肯定能用AF103拍摄自己想要的牛逼画面来。
4、有人问说这个AF103是不是具有广播级标准,作者这么回答的:如果广播级指的是50M码流以上或者是BBC的标准,那么得用外置记录仪(这边,我说一下,这个片子拍摄之后没多久,2011年4月,AF103被BBC确认为高清HD摄像机,列入采购清单,同时列入的还有F3等,当时FS100木有,不知道现在FS100是不是列入了http://107cine.com/zone/avccam/stream/1197/)。
5、关于这个原生的AVDHD素材是不是经得起后期折腾,作者也有就这个测试片说道一些:在后期,转码进入FCP,还做了一定程度的调色,又在AE ETC里进出了一次,他自己觉得画质木有什么受到损伤(这是不是说的有些过了,神级后期啊),他加了句,反正我是怎么觉得的(嗯哼)。最后,他特别说明了下,把素材导入FCP,他是转码成ProRes LT - 不是 422 - 也不是 HQ  (这边我补充说明下:最近松下发布了AVCCAM IMPORTER插件,安装后,AVCHD素材进入FCP无需转码,可直接导入,下载链接:http://107cine.com/zone/avccam/stream/2329/).
6、最后,我想不少朋友对这个片子的字幕和升降格变化印象深刻,一般都会认为这两者大大提升了影片的层次。作者表示:这个片子的字幕是用AE做的,关于画面跟踪,(我想指的是一些字幕有关的画面,不知道对不对),作者说用的AE里的motion-tracker做的,很简单。升降格变化是在FCP里做的。
总的看下来,这个看起来很牛逼的“客片”,其实是个1天制作出来的测试片,貌似没啥高深的,其实应该说人家掌握的东西真的多,而且见识和影像观念的确牛逼。

下面是一些讨论帖的原文,我就不整理了,有兴趣的童鞋可以去VIMEO看。

VIMEO上的讨论:
Thanks Joe,
titles: After Effects
speed: Final cut pro
I will update the description soon - so that you may know, that in this shoot, the AF100 wasn\'t used as it should - in other words: it was used very quick and dirty (setting- & adjustment-wise).
I used the nativ codec completely in 1080p @50 fps variable framerate. And believe me - the cam wasn\'t used the way it should - you can tweak it (the picture) in the most detailed ways. I worked really unclean with the settings As it was a really unorganized and chaotic shootout. It\'s a really good deal for the price whith a feature-list up to the sky! What we\'ve seen in most cases, captured with the AF100, wasn\'t as breathtaking as for example 5D or F3 footage - for a reason...it still wasn\'t used as a professional tool in professional hands - So it just has to be treated the right way and i honestly believe, it is the right tool for a professional (Not claiming to be one) to capture the desired picture.

Thanks for you response. So you would recommend the camera, it sounds like, right? I sold my Sony Ex1 and returned my 5D, in order to purchase the AF100 and GH2. I need my footage to hold up in post for some grading and for uploading to iStock and Getty Images. Would you say that the native codec will hold up to professional broadcast standards, or do I have to invest thousands more in a separate recording device? My preference would be to not spend the extra money, but I\'ll have to, eventually, if the native codec isn\'t broadcast standard. I\'ve read opposing views on this subject, which is frustrating... Any thoughts?

If "broadcast standard" should mean 50mbit and is standarized by BBC...then you may get Ki Pro Mini or an Atomos Ninja - BUT - I think crews.tv wondered how good the nativ codec really is - post prosessing the footage one time through an intensive color correction, and import/export the footage in After Effects ETC won\'t harm the quality - At least I couldn\'t See a difference. Do you intend to edit AVCHD native / maybe on Premiere? I ask because I use Final Cut Pro and have to transcode the clips for editing - in this testscenario i simply converted the Clips into ProRes LT - Not 422 - nor HQ.
PLANAR TRACKING
the tracking was done (very quickly) with the standard motion-tracker in AE.
the VFR work very easy.
My workflow was:
VFR: On
Base-framerate: 25p (VFR is available just in 1080p)
Framerate: 50P
Press record....and you have a finished 50% slow-motion to work with in the post-production.
Speed it up - slow it down (f.e. with twixtor or Apple Motion) 1080P50 or 60p is a very nice format to work with - although you need to record the sound seperately.
a Glidecam HD2000 (without Arm & West) was used for that / it was very hard to handle the weight for more than One or two minutes - an arm/west combination is imo nessesary or at least veeeeeeeeery helpful!

This is top-notch work -- bravo! I have a Af100 / 14-35mm Olympus / Seadicam Pilot / Kessler CineSlider on order and look forward to creating similar work.
You achieved a consistent look -- fluid movements, sharp, minimal video noise, grading, etc. Love know more production details (settings, workflow, etc) and any thoughts related to gear (specifically the lens).
-m
Wow - thank you for these nice compliments!
- I used a selfmade IGUS slider but I am also looking for the "one shot" Kessler pocket dolly!
- The steadycam pilot is - how should I say - state of art!
- the 14-35mm is amazing!!! I actually have about 5 lenses, which I bought specially for the AF101:
Voigtländer 25mm 0:95 (believe me - this lens looks funny on the AF100....but the picture and color-rendering looks so dawm 5D like - it is really a must have, although I didn´t use it in that shoot.
CANON FD 55mm 1:1.2 (really beautiful lens)
Vivitar FD 55mm Makro 1:2.8
Tokina FD 60mm - 120mm 1:2.8
Olympus 12-60mm (but that will be sold, altough it has some awesome advantages - like the minimum focus distance!!!)
Thank you again for your kind words.
----------------
Excellent- I would say very representable!
Did you expose for the "blown out" white look or do it in post?
Use either Zebras or Waveform?
What were your scene files? Danke!
Awesome AE, great piece in every regard! :beer: :beer: :beer:
Hi and thanks!
Let me take a Look At the camera tomorrow and I will tell you what scene file was used.
What I can tell you is, that I operated the Cam really the "dirtiest" Way somebody could do!
I for example forgot To swich thr DRS from 3 to 0 or 1 :-(
As mentioned, the color correction was Done extremely fast and dirty - so I didn\'t take care of blown highlights in most cases.
There was not done a proper black balance nor a right exposure.
In some cases I really say To myself: "Man....next time, you really have to Do it right!"
I will come back To Details tomorrow, when Time allows!
Thanks for the interest.
