[Avid-L2] Re: Moire Tips?

 

Either avoid the wide shot or roto in a new backdrop. ;)

Almost 15 years ago an "A" director was asked by an editor at my shop why he didn't shoot background plates for all the rig removal that needed to be done. Answer: "You editors are all alike. You want us to make it too easy for you."

The Resolve colorist has come in and looked and he agrees that it is just the fine lines in the back drop hitting the magic numbers as the wide camera trucks in and passes through these nodes of moire. We were told they did camera tests but perhaps the cameras weren't moving and trucking in like what happened during the actual show taping. Or should I say show filing given it's file based? Tape or no tape I'd like to file somebody over this but heck I don't see any way they could have avoided it given the texture of the backdrop.
