Cool animation reference for spacing / timing...

Here's an interesting post from My Modern Metropolis on Harold Edgerton's high frame-rate photography. Great animation reference for spacing and timing perhaps. The golf swing looks awesome.

Quicktime gamma issues

Ok, so I think I've finally sorted the horrible washing out of h.264 Quicktimes - I had read that to fix it you:

Go to the movie's properties in Quicktime Pro, go to the Visual Settings tab of the video track, change the Transparency to 'Blend', set the slider to 100%, switch the Transparency back to Straight Alpha, scrub the timeline and save the QT.

It didn't work.

Now what I have found certainly does work is export the Quicktime as a 100% Motion-JPEG encoded movie, and then from Quicktime Pro export that as h.264. This looks pretty much just like the original (gamma-wise).

Sense.

Another Ratatouille test

I forgot to post this one a while ago...
