Thankyou for taking the time to fill
out the survey
I sent out with the last
issue. I gained some
valuable insight on what kinds
of things to share in this &
future issues of this
newsletter.
Let's keep kicking
ass together!
GIVE
IT 10 -- HOW TO GENERATE NEW
IDEAS WHEN YOU HAVE
NONE
We’ve all been in that place where we’re
watching our shot on loop, can see
something is missing, but just can’t
figure out what that thing is. I
figured out a useful solution to this
problem, which I'm happy
to share with you in this
article!
ANTIALIASING

Yang, Pedro
V. Sander, Jason
Lawrence & Hugues
Hoppe wrote a
paper on how non-linear image
filtering can damage edges in your
image, and they share a method on how to
solve this issue!
Martin Kenzel has taken
this algorithm and implemented it into
a
gizmo using BlinkScript! Some
applications for this tool include:
KNOBSCRIPTER Adrian Pueyo has
created a super useful tool to make
scripting hidden callback
knobs with python (like knobChanged,
which I introduced in Issue
007 of this newsletter) a lot
faster & more intuitive.
NVIDIA'S
NEW DEEP-LEARNING BASED
INPAINTING
ALGORITHM
NVIDIA have developed a new "inpainting"
algorithm, making use of a neural
network hooked up to image databases, to
automatically repair errors &
re-create details in an image. You
can read
more about how it works here, or
simply watch
the impressive example video
here.
If
you've
created a
gizmo or
python
script to
solve a
common
problem or
speed up
your
workflow,
please reply
to this
email and
let me know
about it's
existence!
I'd love to
help spread
the word, to
help us all
be better
compositors
together!
