This is a new clip of mine: BTWIN LD920E Automatic E-Bike im Test

I had only 60 minutes time to create the footage and I have been at 4 locations. The content of 2 locations was not good enough (If I had the chance I would have made more shots of course).

The footage is FHD@100FPS (PAL) @1/200

To not focus the guy on the bridge or to reduce effect of lack of a camera man I decided to use movement with Cins camera abilities (I did not use any projector settings). This demands good resolution of the footage, which I dont have with FHD@100FPS. The final clip is aimed for a viewport of 800px without video controls to make fullscreen so the cropping with an aimed export render to 720p (1280x720px) seemed acceptable to me.

The recording of the controller in the last scene is a bit out of focus. I used Cins sharpen plugin @76%

The movement plugin took some effect but I wasnt able to avoid the black borders no matter what I set to Z-camera. Maybe I should have used Z-projector instead ? So I skipped for the moment.

All clips have histogram settings which reduce the hazy look and bring back some more dynamic range to the look.

Nice editing.
It may be better to use the Projector. Look at Figure 2.12 to see the difference:

@andreapaz

Is the signal processing (routing) the only difference?

@cincity

If you keep the Camera/Projector dimensions the same, there are no other differences. Camera is used for internal frame movements; Projector is used for external frame movements. I thought maybe Projector could avoid the black border, but Im not sure.

It is a bit too technical for me.

I will try that out after I have finished the next revision. ATM Im adding an animated multi-layer PNG image file.

The re-index function in the media galery is soo goood!!

Please take a look at the new version.
