[Released] Terminator 2 Judgment Day (1991). Regraded + Partially DeRem'd + Regrained

Sanjuro, may I ask how did you implemented regraining in that project?
I know one method with avisynth but it adds grain also do the black bars.

Easy: you have first to crop the black bars, then add grain, then add back the black bars.

Too much time (one avisynth re-encoding takes all day on my PC) and too many re-encodings.

If you're regraining in avisynth you can do it all in one script

That's nice.
How exactly?

I really don't like avisynth so I only use it with ready to use scripts... I have one for regraining, but don't know how to not include that filter to black bars.

Just to offer my sixpence, when I add grain to anything, I use FilmConvert to do it. Though of course, that being said, my workflow isn't the tightest since it involves having to make a bloated duplicate of the original video track so that it can be loaded in Da Vinci Resolve. However, I've found that the results–grain wise– to be quite pleasing.

[zoidberg]

Use 🔍crop on the video source as well as the grain plate(s) (cropping both to the same size), then after the grain has been applied use 🔍AddBorders to generate clean black bars.

Film convert is preferable indeed, to any custom grain plate out there.

Well, they pretty much answered already. I used filmconvert.
And then, what spoRv said.

Can someone PM me a link please?

I actually attempted to do something similar in FCPX but I had an issue with colour matching the purple lasers so I just gave up. I'm glad to see someone had the same idea. Had a look on katcr *dot* co and could only find kk650's regrade...
