this was really enjoyable. He uses audio clips from other critics during the TWBB segment (he says nothing). Kinda genius https://youtu.be/A_Y_xtIslpk Starts w/ Norm MacDonald interviewing M. Night about developing a style

2 other may get them later on. If true... This would be indeed some really good news

Just for fun, I took the Dolby TrueHD 5.1 from "Magnolia 1999", made an isolated instrumental, removed sound fx, dialogue. No commercial 24-bit 5.1 version exists, only the stereo PCM. My process was lossless all the way through (aside from the AI tinkering). Link is under the "Released" section of audio projects

And there is a podcast from Juno Reator with Brad Fiedel uploaded a week ago! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMRAhfxh...unoReactor
avatar
@bendermac Thanks for this, Juno Reactor are one of my favorite bands (if you can call them that) and this was magic. I had no idea this happened

The Terminator & Terminator 2 Live Orchestral Soundtrack with Brad Fiedel - only 11 minutes, but totally worth it Smile
avatar
@NCseventeen here's an idea; use a Luma key on the version of the film w/ the grain plate on it, because there should be more grain in the darker parts, less grain in the lighter. So you mix it w/ the original. You can also use a rougher grain on the night parts, finer on day parts. Also slap a deflicker filter on because it will mix the flicker of that w/ the original and add unwanted weirdness
avatar
But it did look very promising from the glance I gave it. Was the original print faded?
avatar
Sorry I did have to remove your link. We don’t allow direct link to material. It’s better to post a thread about the project and then if people want it then they can PM you.
avatar
as in its hard to pull off its not as easy as just rising the exposre and then layering a grain lut.. anyways tips would help big ups
avatar
Cause grains are an art on its own..
avatar
Here is the thing i enjoy feedback i am learning but a lot of these looks are meant to give ya 35mm experience. they are novel i am not working a pro studio.. but i do take my time trying to match if i have good sources..but i wil say the people explain the process of wot i am doing it sounds easy.. but if others can show their work would help..
avatar
The beyond (35mm Emulation) it says scan i miss labeled but dont wanna re upload..
avatar
thx guys
avatar
Patreon model works for me best because it rolls over and then its easier to get consistancy especially after u are delivering wot u promise...
avatar
Also it has be a bit loosely explained cause i dont want the feds at my door.. if u notice.. it just says donnations for photos..
avatar
if its emulation mobo jumbo or share vimeo link or wotever...the goal is a scan.
avatar
Ill be honest everything is for getting scans done..
avatar
OK thanks for clarifying. Feel free to create a thread about your process at some point. I'd be curious to discuss it.
avatar
SOme months may take bi monthly for the scan but.. first month we hit it right away
avatar
some movies i make emulations just for myself to watch and ill post pics
avatar
end of month you get a exclsuive 35mm scan..
avatar
then each week a member picks a film and we talk about the emulation process. thats it..
avatar
then i do emulation again for free.
avatar
35mm scan i share are on my twitter and they are films everyone has been sharing for freee same as me free.
avatar
So here is how it works
avatar
@NCseventeen Again pretty sure I said I don't understand and I am confused, a few times, and I have made no judgements since I have never seen anything you have done. Just a statement of fact. Not being mean. If you want to discuss further, perhaps a thread is a better place then the shoutbox.
avatar
And make it clear the site is there to raise money for scans i do not give existing scans if i do its free..
avatar
enjoy your weekends
avatar
Anyways guys a 70mm emulation set scan by me https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zgh1ALHW...cdcolombia
avatar
Well guess wot my system is diffrent. and my scans will be avaialble on my patreon and discord.. the emulation is all free .. no diffrent than u guys re editing mulan... or lion king lol.. and the ones i give there we go over wot i did and we talk about it as a comunity more for learning emulation better for all of us... inclluding me
avatar
Secondly the emulation stuff is free...
avatar
Firstly my patreon is there to just raise money for a 35mm scan per month...
avatar
I think u guys are all very confused and need to figure out whats going on before making judgements.
avatar
And in regards of keeping hard worked stuff to patreons, personally I can fully understand, as at OT many scanns are only avaible to contributors, to avoid people use others hard work for things like bootleg masters, or to sell for profit.
avatar
As for research, this place has existed for almost a decade, we have seen a fair amount. Perhaps you shouldn't be quick to judge us also?
avatar
Also I don't recall hating or judging on anything you have done, because I have never seen anything you have done. As far as I can tell, its all kept to your pateron. Which is fine, that's your choice.
avatar
@NCseventeen Yeah agree with MrBrown, I never expressed any hate or hostility. I just don't know your process and the posts you have made were confusing to me. Were these projects regrades or 35mm scans. MrBrown cleared it up for me, pretty quickly.
avatar
@NCseventeen I never said anything about "hate", I just reworded the posts, as I just can say what I can read there, not that I really KNOW anything different from the texts. If I start to dislike or avoid someone, that usually has to do with the persons behaviour, way of communication, and such things... with me the road to get my hate is quite long.
avatar
@PDB Some are scans, some are regrades, according to my understanding on the twitter texts. personally, I thought it was well stated in the singular tweets, but I also can see why it might confuse
avatar
Anyways talk is cheap right? content is king.. time will show.. Big love guys.. It's so easy to hate on some one but very hard to believe in some one.. so.. yea.. ill let time sort that out..
avatar
The diffrence between myself and u guys is u can actually do research on me while you guys? randoms... i always suggest.. wait before u judge.. also shows a lot of insecurity going on some random fan edit site.. talking about me lol. also heads up... alot of the films that have been scanned came from my collection.. Clueless...
avatar
@PDB mate. Its a hobby.. its not a definite. also.. there's a strong community of people who like and we all work together on getting better.. look man i maybe an amateur color corrector.. but when it comes to film prints scans. u guys are all gonna feel kind of silly.
avatar
haha its gonna be fun @MrBrown and all of you guys when you guys see what's next... my suggestion usually is wait for a person to fail and then hate.. but.. you guys are gonna feel very silly.. and also do some research before u guys make claims. And my emulation is fucking novelty. haha .. I love the he claims lol.. \
avatar
what I see on his twitter are mostly scans already shared on the organ and elsewhere, and his "emulations" which are just regular blu-rays with contrast/saturation/grain added. he's mostly uploading his LD and VHS rips on vimeo.
avatar
@SilverWook There is a question if his work is real 35mm scans or regrades, he has said things in the past that don't make sense to me. His Twitter/X video post explaining his work doesn't help explain it either.
avatar
Has anyone talked with framemaster lately? He has vanished from both here and the originaltrilogy forum since October. I was very looking forward to his scan of Beauty and the Beast and I am among the contributors.
avatar
He claims to have someone in Montreal scanning .. https://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Wicked.../id/118446
avatar
He popped up at ot.com recently, I think: https://originaltrilogy.com/user/undefined/id/82377

sadly Fincher has been tinkering with Se7en since the laserdisc and with every subsequent home video release. I'm quite impressed they did an 8K scan of a super 35mm negative then 'grain managed' it
avatar
I really hope Fincher didn't touch up too much up
