Hey guys, thanks for staying with me thru the hard times.....I'm back now, and got a few videos slated for this week and next. Also wanted to mention, Insta 360 is offering a free $100 selfie stick for anyone who orders thru my link, (limited to first 30 people), so if you like what I do, and are thinking about this camera, then support the channel! geni.us/INSTA360_X4_8K
Where here for you as a peer professional my services are free if you ever wanna talk to someone and build good rapport hit me up I’m 51. I’m married. I have a 23-year-old daughter. I grew up poor in Santa Ana, California and had trauma growing up, but I my lived experience to help people with mental health and substance use disorder. I’m also in school to become a substance-abuse counselor and I just started another job substance-abuse counselor.
This is such a big aha moment for my VFX workflow. I’ve always wondered how everyone else is able to get a perfect track from untrackable footage and it makes so much more sense now.
there are multiple ways to do it. But ppl really don't use auto-track since many shots aren't easy to track. Two things you can do if you don't have a 360 camera. Turn down/up the shutter angle/speed doing this controls how much motion blur is present in the image. Also, place tracking markers in the physical scene. This way you'll know for certain that you have tracking points. In post to get the motion blur back use something like real smart motion blur. Another thing you can do is before you start tracking apply some sharpening. This will allow corners and other points to be more contrasted. Remember you need at least 8 tracking points in the scene at all times. If you can have a vfx supervisor on set they will make sure your scene is vfx ready
@@AnimeZone247 If you can have a VFX supe xD not all of us are that rich lol I work in VFX and even I didn't know the value of a witness cam. Sure, you can track the footage you already have but it's always going to be a terrible time and worse when you can't get that perfect solve. Those effects are just going to be put in post and it's never going to look right unless you're a gifted comper. An X4 is an investment but if it means you can start getting creative? Why the hell not. All I need is this rig and I'll have everything I need. Put in CG cars? Done. Change all the store signs with cards? Easy. Removing things with paintfixes? Re-projecting will take no time. I'm just advocating to move things forward and keeping this simple for the simple vfx creators.
@@1BrknHrtdRomeo I’m not saying don’t use a 360 cam, use everything at your disposal. But these are tips if you dont have a witness cam and you still wanted to match move 😂
Funny, I bought this camera months ago and just used it for the first time yesterday. I had no idea it could be used in this way. My mind is blown. Also sending love to you and your family. Sharing what you're going through is helpful for all of us. ❤
Great Technique. As a Professional VFX artist with over a decade of experience on Hollywood Blockbusters I just want to point out a few things to look out for if you are planning to do it in a professional environment. 1. You need to genlock both cameras so that both are capturing the frame at the same time. 2. This will only work when shooting digitally. When shooting on film, the film itself is moving, so you even need to track static shots shot on sticks. Regardless, your VFX department will probably not complain about having more reference material :) If you are planning on adding additional CG to your shot your vfx team will be even happier if you use your 360 Cam to capture a few HDRIs brackets
Staggering. I love seeing this come to fruition; I'd been seeing the foundations of technology like this in episodes of Two Minute Papers and such for a couplefew years now, and now here it is for people like us to use and be amazed by.
I strapped my 360 camera to the main camera on a shoot a while ago for behind the scenes, and i was thinking of this exact workflow, i am blown away it actually works!
I remember using the X2 on a desert race track shoot at request of the client. All we used was the wide field of view. I had no clue the sheer versatility of this product - it's insane what can be accomplished with it.
As a fx artist I am forever asking our talented camera tracker if the track could get closer and he gives loads of valid reasons like, no lease data, it’s anamorphic, the person’s head we need tracked has no 3d scan. I think that was one of the shots excuse list. So I appreciate having the track we do have. Then after he is done on the shot the client starts delivering the data we need for the shot.
I just experienced a Love Job and not only do i not know what to think or feel about it but ill have to watch many times over . Lotsa info. Wow! Thank You
How does this man NOT have a million subs yet? His films are beautiful and his product videos are funny, complex, adventurous and down right experimental all at the same time… I swear it’s that “junk draw” storytelling going around that gets all the attention! I don’t know how it works so well but it’s unfortunate… Moving in on 500k though! Congrats!
I think in 2018 we used one of the few 3D camera phones attached to the main camera to 3D track and allow us to overlay all the positions of pre-rendered 3D assets on a scene so the director could easily align eye lines to all the pre-determined positions of the 3D world beyond the set. It was a little complicated as the set would move but the background would be static so you had to track that and solve for that in real time. It worked pretty well though.
Great video! Almost have this working. Got the camera doubled in Blender, solve down below 1, but how were you able to line up cine footage? I see the Camera01screenshape, but no video. Lastly, did you do those composites in Blender or bring it into AE once lined up? Sending to AE be ideal for me. Thanks!
This is so incredible! I am so overjoyed that I chose to buy the insta360 x4. I had no idea that is helpful with hiring out vfx help! My mind is blown!! ❤
I work as an engineering surveyor and have recently been learning how to use a Mavic 3E drone to do photogrammetry surveys (insanely detailed 3D models). I feel like it would make a great addition to your work (think Matterport for the whole external property)! I’m moving to California next month if you wanted to play with drones 🤙🏻
Holy frock this is the smartest thing I’ve ever seen haha being an unemployed VFX dude, this is perfect for anyone that wants to create their own shots and become a generalist
I wish I was smart enough to do all of this myself.. but the fact I can just use my 360 cam in preparation to hire out for VFX work and not have to stress too much about it is dope. Granted I understand this is within levels of other levels of effects haha.
Bro! You deserve all the success you have! The amount of information you share with each video is absolute gold. Although I will probably never even get to 10% of your level, I still appreciate all you do!
I recently bought a Red Raptor and all week I’ve been thinking about strapping my BMPCC6K to the top of the raptor to somehow use the 6K’s gyro data in Davinci for stabilization. I did later realize that the raptor records gyro data and I just need a third party plugin to read it but that’s not as convenient. Either way, it’s cool to see somehow having a similar idea and going much further with it!
I'm actually amazed by this workflow good job ! I own a Insta 360 x3, i'll definitely try !! Only thing that seems to still be not perfect is to calculate the offset between the 2 camera to get that pixel perfect track on the main Cam... I'll for sure try to find a good workflow for this All best ❤️
Yeah let me know if you do. I could see a use case for a specific mount (cold shoe) that people can get on amazon, and working with a specific model camera, and notating the EXACT offset for everyone to use. Mine was close, but by no means super dialed in.
used to think vfx artists only uses 360 cameras for HDRI envirenment lighting reference thingy, well this is new! surprised that it tracks so well even with the distortions of a flat 360 video.
Very cool to see the behind the scenes of videos, and new use cases of current technology. Now how the da heck do i apply this knowledge to making a normal video?
I had a theory a few years ago about mounting three wide-angle witness cameras (arranged in an equilateral triangle) around the hero lens, with the centre of the hero lens directly in the centre of the equilateral triangle. The idea of using a triangle would be you would have two cameras that are side-to-side relative to each other, creating stereo horizontal parallax; and the third camera would then provide vertical parallax, potentially increasing tracking accuracy.
We've been piggybacking like this for FPV drones for years. Try gyroflow. You can calibrate a profile to your lens and camera combo first and then put the gyro data in.
@@dadbeatdead the camera file no but the gyro data yes. I can use my insta360 one R with 360 module on an Ursa mini and stabilize the ursa video in gyroflow with the insta360 data.
I sorta jumped to a conclusion that is what this video was about based on the thumbnail but it was more just a 360 camera review so I guess very different applications
@@Shauny_D yeah, it was for tracking data that’s extrapolated from a 360 camera, on GyroFlow’s website they list they don’t support any of of Insta360 X cameras. I was specifying the application that was presented for the Insta360 X4 that he’s using.
I was having a hard time justifying this purchase for just HDRI’s for our shots but this is truly a game changer for tracking. May reduce the need of the cumbersome workflow of something like Jetset software.
Pretty impressive! Now, not being anywhere near your level, I might not have learned as much as I should have from this. And, lacking a genuine need, not going to pursue this further. Still, it’s extremely interesting. Thank you!
I’ve got 0 intentions to use this on any project but its always interesting what unusual filming techniques you show to us. Stand out from other camera people that just reviews cameras and thats it
Really nice video! I have been using the insta 360 for a while now but never tried using it as a piggyback witness cam! Definitely gonna try that thank you!!
YO YO JOSH YEO - Fuck this was awesome - amazing video , as always Quality over Quantity !! Never stop making, take as long as you need when the quality is this good. Absolutely legendary - would love to see more of your Luxe Real estate BTS + little tips / tricks some day :)
Hi Josh! This is a great video, even for a seasoned VFX professional! What is the name of the stand you are using for the insta360 when it is on that very small tripod base?
I just bought the X4 for my real estate photography business. I didn't know they updated their system for it! 🎉 Is it possible to make a video on it? Or point me in the right direction. Thank you!
You need to shoot the photos on the X4 on timer mode (3 sec or 5 second).....then you need to offload all photos to you computer and using the insta360 app, convert them into regular generic 360 files, (basically not the .insv file insta360 gives you)...... From there you airdrop back to your phone, open the matter port app, and import them from camera roll as a 3d scan. And it should compile the rest. Currently the X4 does not work with the matter port app for auto linking, like the predecessors do. So this is a work around until they update the app. I sorta mentioned it in the video, but the wording was not as specific.
Hmmm perhaps I missed something, but how do you apply it to another camera that used a completely different lens? For example if the Insta is super wide, how do you apply the solve onto 50mm lens with all its little imperfections?
That's what the program is for. It takes the offset you measure from image center to image center in all three directions so that when you track the real footage into your CG render with the two cameras also offset virtually, it can match the tracking points onto the in-camera depth of field and field of view perfectly. That's the genius of it.
J, you are exceptionally talented. I do however have one question, have you been sent any Insta360 cameras for review or free of charge? Have you ever been sponsored?
Haven't watched the video yet(Aldo I must definitely intend to) but I'd just like to say that we all love you both in the best of times and the worst, I can't imagine what you and your loved ones are going through, but during my times of hardship you're videos and love for movie making wes like a anchor in see of pain and soo now I come to you to say we here, a community of people how you've given too so much he's your back within if it just small things like a nice message or somebody that will listen Edit: I do deeply apologize for the horrible grammar
I wonder how this would work to replace something like Jetset Autoshot workflow to track a camera and bringing it to blender like you did and combining it with a Polycam lidar scan. Also, you think DJI will allow to record the lidar data used to focus, to have scans for blender meshes?
I thought this was really clever. I'm going to do some tests to see if we can pull it into the Autoshot workflow and automate the manual lens alignment pieces. Having the 360 frames at 24p or 25p (or whatever the cine camera frame rate is) makes all the difference in getting multiple footage streams to correctly align in SynthEyes.
Have you tried the Insta 360 1 inch Leica Sensor lens? It is ideal for indoor and night shots. I use it to fake fpv drone shots at indoor parties, very dark situations
I would love to know how to use the Camera Tracker in Davinci Resolve to do this rather than using a separate app for that. I don't see anything on YT that shows that. When I tried, I only got 1/2 of the 360 camera to track.

I wonder how this would work to replace something like Jetset Autoshot workflow to track a camera and bringing it to blender like you did and combining it with a Polycam lidar scan.
Also, you think DJI will allow to record the lidar data used to focus, to have scans for blender meshes?
I thought this was really clever. I'm going to do some tests to see if we can pull it into the Autoshot workflow and automate the manual lens alignment pieces. Having the 360 frames at 24p or 25p (or whatever the cine camera frame rate is) makes all the difference in getting multiple footage streams to correctly align in SynthEyes.
Have you tried the Insta 360 1 inch Leica Sensor lens? It is ideal for indoor and night shots. I use it to fake fpv drone shots at indoor parties, very dark situations
I would love to know how to use the Camera Tracker in Davinci Resolve to do this rather than using a separate app for that. I don't see anything on YT that shows that.
When I tried, I only got 1/2 of the 360 camera to track.
Bro used every single possible feature of the camera
Damn this was cool. I have zero reason to put VFX in my videos but now I wan to put VFX in my videos. It’s too wild!!
if you got a guy like @joblove, its super easy! send it to him!
@@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL don’t you mean LoveJob? 😅
You have so many accidents! LOL Maybe you need to have a checklist.
Damn this is so cool
