hey what's up everybody it's your boy hugh here from creatorup back to another episode of the
fun pro production in vr360 as you see right now is actually a timelapse we captured in Joshua Tree
is a sunset time-lapse capturing jpeg with the kandao Qoocam 8K is an 8k video so you see
a dropping frame right here even my fast machine so just looking at this time-lapse we noticed for
a couple issues beside the horizon line is not straight it's you see this ugly bending right
here because one lens is do that one lens is facing to the sun and the other lens is
facing to the dark side which is me so because the light is different you create this light
look like like this light ugly ugly line right here and again for consumer project
it's not a big deal but for professional project that might make your client not happy so let me just
quickly demo like in a regular Qoocam 8K scenario you you pop open Qoocam studio right
uh it is all this is all free you drop in all the photo which is right here okay aka photo like it
dropping everything in here i don't i'll just drop in some of it uh just show you the workflow so uh
it's a timelapse but it literally is uh Qoocam studio will just think it as an individual image
so you stitch individual image uh again uh whenever it's a time lapse don't use the
gravity correction this is only for video options it will mess up everything so don't use that
and then you see the defringe you see the option here it's not changing the light is different the
lens difference here doesn't do anything uh so that is all the options you have in the
Qoocam Studio auto stitch again this is free you get the camera you have the software you can just use
that again for consumer it doesn't really matter a professional we need to fix that
and the only way to fix that is actually not stitching in the free software a stitching in
Mistika and that its why you need to invest into Mistika for your professional job not only
for six lane setup like the Insta360 pro 2 or the teche 360anywhere with 4-lens setup
it's actually also relevant for two lens setup like the Qoocam 8K enterprise as this footage capture
so let me just show you the professional workflow right now and go ahead and kill the Qoocam
studio let's open Mistika uh i want to show you what is the end result we will achieve right here
so that is the cool cam ak sequence you just saw go ahead and hide that and that is the Mistika
output again i correct the horizon line right here but also like if you go toggle on and off
see that we blend really well in here that color difference still there but it's really
unnoticeable it's practically you can't see it if you're in VR mode you can't really see it so it's a
lot better right and also horizontal lines better and and you see the contrast is actually better
it's more like a LOG mode render this is ProRes by the way
and it's kind of amazing if you just scroll drop it let's see the sun is amazing it's really really
nice uh it's an issue right here um okay i thought i had to tell you that another issue right here
so for professional time lapse okay backtrack so i i'm one of the artists that love to capture
time lapse and drone shot for 360 cinematic video documentary or native script content i
think time-lapse in 360 is very powerful and very easy to capture for videographers
you should do that but there's a way to do it and i actually have a tutorial teach you how to
do that already i'll put the link right here and right here you check out that video right here
but the correct way is make sure that you use menu settings say your iso 100 and set your
shutter speed to a set value so you see the sun go down in a completely go dark pitch dark
and here i actually make a huge mistake because end of the day last shot and i actually make a
mistake you see i'm right here this is me right here i make a huge mistake i actually set the
camera into an auto exposure what it means is the camera will adjust iso and shutter speed
uh according to environment and see the sun set right here the scene actually getting really dark
it's a desert there's no light beside the sun right so the exposure job and Mistika you can
see that the job above uh release of the knight you can actually see right here actually you
can see right here it's around around right here let's go down boom you see that that that flash
it's because the camera auto adjusts switch iso and exposure because in auto exposure and
created problem and that is not a Qoocam 8K problem that happened to
any dslr if you are not used to time lapse and you accidentally said it auto exposure so the word of
suggestion is when you're making 360 time-lapse especially if you see time-lapse
3d stereoscopic and mono whatever camera you use set it MANUAL setting we have to set iso set
color temperature really important menu color temperatures for the color mode drift
and also manual set exposure lock it so let the scene go dark okay so now i did not do that for
this time lap and i also kind of fixed that so i also want to show you that actually i fixed that
uh on this one actually uh that is called a great version this one right now hey hold on
make sure that you're seeing it yeah refreshing right now so this one you see that
you don't see that flash anymore it's really smooth the sun will go down
you can see the sun right here really sweet smoke down and the colors stay consistent look
at that it's there's no fresh anymore i'll teach i'll fix it in this tutorial as well
and then i will teach you the actual final version i actually have a color grade version right here
so you see that it's a lot a lot better so sorry from light the blue because the sun
color temperature is 55 00 uh we go from blue sky to the desert red ish color and then you see the
whole sky turn red right here very cinematic and there's a color great version we see some banding
because we shot in jpeg png dng sorry not dng raw uh this camera can capture dng raw timelapse by the
way i was lazy i didn't do that but if you have dng raw you will not see this banding because
you're gonna have 16-bit color depth you'll not see that but this is just an example so you see
that but uh you don't really see it yeah inside VR headset don't really see it kind of
natural but it looked very cinematic in VR the kind of a blue the orange and we actually
an alien aircraft right here look at that guy this is the Alien aircraft oops we capture a UFO flying
great uh okay this tutorial is not about ufo
but you see that uh the final result of here and i'll teach you all that in the tutorial
so now you see the result and that's open Mistika start from scratch let's go a new project
and the camera at 30 frames per second or just it Joshua tree
timelapse tutorial
