Making Some Progress with the Color

I've spent some time since my last blog working with the color in PARALLAX. The tests work with the bug fix so far. The bug is a known bug, and it affects the gamma in the movie. What does that mean? Simple. It makes the movie pale, washed out.

You don't want to watch a movie without visual punch. It's unimpressive. It lacks that excitement that keeps you rapt.

If the bug fix works as well as I believe it will (and it's a simple fix, after all), my life with this project will be much easier. And smoother.

For one, I won't have to create multiple versions: one colorized for the Internet and one colorized for DVD. I would have had to do diffrent conversions with different settings for each. For two, I won't have to store two different files. Storage is cheap these days, but why pack away files that I don't have to?

I made some more color revisions, set the movie to render, and went out for some nighttime recreation. I'll have to test it out when I get back. Hoping for the best.

Blessings,
Scott Hampton
