  • Did you know that CRI & TLCI were not designed for filmmakers to measure the spectral quality of their lights? The ACADEMY deemed them as “inappropriate to describe lighting for digital cinema cameras”. So why are we still using them? And what’s the best option out there that’s designed specifically for us to measure the spectral quality of our LED lights? Find out in this episode

  • @curtisjudd
    @curtisjudd 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Nice coverage of color accuracy for lighting instruments in the context of video 👍 SSI is a useful metric, but, like you mentioned, I like to go beyond just looking at the final summary score and look at the spectral power distribution graph to understand where any particular light varies from a standard reference.

    • @THEDPJOURNEY
      @THEDPJOURNEY  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Absolutely, I personally look at SSI first to get a general idea on how well it performs, if it’s below 90, which is usually the case with 90% of the lights out there, I know for a fact it’s the blue colour spectrum range that’s causing that, since the reds are mostly ok nowadays. But I still have a look at the TM 30 to get a more specific snapshot of the Light’s strengths and weaknesses

  • @phpn99
    @phpn99 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    You should have talked about the concept of metamerism, and SPD multiplication, which this is all about. Alongside SSI, the purpose of the ACES system is to minimize the observer effect when it comes to cinema production, so the "observer" is normalized as much as feasible. In lab work, the chosen light source is a deuterium arc lamp, which has a continuous spectrum between 200 and 450 nanometers (so, mostly in the UV range). Old-time cinematographers know that the best light source for colour balancing is the energy-hungry Tungsten light, because it has a smooth spectrum that easily bears modulation via coloured filters. Another less-known fact, is that exposure meters are usually only reliable when used with a tungsten source, for the same reason. When used with an LED, HMI or Xenon flash source it's important to calibrate your meter by measuring a good quality 18% grey card and dialing in the exposure error ; often close to 0.5 stop.

    @tomdchi12 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I strongly agree about the value of SSI versus previous systems! (But one small critique of your overall excellent explanation - around 8m 20s - because these graphs are normalized for their respective peaks, simply overlaying them like that exaggerates the differences or similarities. Those differences across the visible spectrum are exactly the important issue, but the difference in the "area under the curve" isn't comparable in that straightforward of a way. That said, this minor point doesn't take away from the fact that you've laid out the problems and why SSI is so important a solution!)

    • @THEDPJOURNEY
      @THEDPJOURNEY  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      You know I've been buried deep in that rabbit hole for the last month trying to find the best way to distill and simplify such incredibly technical topic to make it easy enough for the average filmmaker to watch... believe me, it's not easy, hahah
      I had to cut off so much fat from this not to be too sciencey to scare peoapl off.
      So really thank you for pointing this out, but all this was more like taking the creative freedom to simplify it without butchering it on a technical level. HOpe that makes sense.

    • @tomdchi12
      @tomdchi12 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@THEDPJOURNEY That absolutely makes sense! The physicist Richard Feynman said the best way to learn something is to imagine teaching it to someone.

    • @timkang1980
      @timkang1980 ปีที่แล้ว

      The exaggeration due to the overlay is honestly very helpful. It's more about understanding the metric score, not the other way around. For example, if I have a score of 73 for daylight diodes vs real 5600K sunlight I measured outside, then I can see what part of the spectrum contributes most to the 23% difference (the UVA / violet region). That is crucial to know since the contribution of that portion is very subtle to most color rendering.... it's important, but subtle, and that's why a score of 73 in daylight is actually not as bad as it sounds.

    After a very long time came upon a video this good, Thank you for such an easy explanation I work with galleries and photograph art/sculptures etc and I was using a color checker as well but I was seeing these problems but couldn't identify the actual problem plus I saw a shift while using regular strobes and battery powered ones. Also you were right about the sensors, even after creating a custom profile and keeping correct WB I was seeing a shift in reds, whatever strobe I used and then realised my camera sensor shifts the reds towards magenta so I have to manually adjust that before I start shooting. This video was like honey to the ears, wanted to shout that please don't stop... Thank you

    Excellent video. QUESTION: I am trying to improve my painting studio lighting. Hard to find consistent/accurate info... I believe I want a 'full spectrum' bulb but most people say that 5000k and full spectrum are the same. I believe that a spectrometer will capture the difference between 5000k and full spectrum (but I am not sure if this is true). 5000k and Daylight may look the same to our human eye but they way that color is rendered can be different. Is this correct? What is the best bulb to accurately capture color on a canvas? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

    • @THEDPJOURNEY
      @THEDPJOURNEY  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Color temperature and being full spectrum are not connected. You can have full spectrum in both 3200 and 5500
      Usually daylight colour is harder to get in full spectrum, so the cheapest way is to use the good old tungsten bulb. Or invest in a high SSI video light like the Zolar.

    3 chip 2/3" cameras are not "older by design". They are there to run alongside single chip cameras for ENG usage. They follow different design parts. Specifically for television and sports. Reality TV. You will always have 2/3" sensor ENG cameras. They are NOT designed to compete in the cinema space. They are not an older technology, but a different format, and are actively updated just as frequently as your cinema cameras. They are designed concurrently with single chip cinema cameras.

    I'm wondering are there white papers out there with numbers for the likes of ARRI Tungsten and Daylight fixtures, Other brands like Lekos or Dedos, multi-diode LED panels, studio flourescent arrays like Kino-flo etc... even against practicals like average household flourescent/incandescents. Seeing how different technologies compare in context would also be interesting. Then there are the ratings once modified, but that gets very complicated xD

    • @THEDPJOURNEY

      White papers are more reserved for scientific discoveries I'd say rather than technical measurements for exisitng lights. I was surprised that ARRI didnt have much SSI info about their lights actually. But again, if you have a spectrometer, it's pretty easy to just measure them. TOTALLY AGREE I just hope to find a database out there with all metrics of all those lights.

      Another tip is, as much as I can I try to shoot in tungsten mode since it offers the better SSI score. So if you’re shooting anything in the dark for example, set your lights at Tungsten (provided tungsten’s SSI is higher than Daylight’s that is of course)

    I find that I have better working rapport and respect for a DP who cut their teeth in the industry as a gaffer before becoming a DP. A film set isn't a good place to teach lighting to your "boss."
    Might I also add that if anyone has said "did you notice the inconsistency of the SSI color score of those 2 lights in that last scene?" then the movie has much more than the lighting wrong with it.

    • @THEDPJOURNEY
      @THEDPJOURNEY  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      People don’t notice inconsistencies in SSI in a scene, gaffers and DPs notice those inconsistencies and that’s when it’s hard to fix on set or in post if you’re mixing them in one scene. As mentioned I learned that the hard way on set.
      After all, SSI just like other metrics is not just a number, it’s a graph DPs need to understand to be able to know the strength and weakness

I have a firm grasp of all the color science behind both. the observer model used for TM30 is CIE 1964 10 degreee. Cameras are TRYING to do CIE 1931, but regardless of these forest view differences between camera and the CIE model (remember, it's not actually the human eye, but this theoretical camera), I've found over time and doing a lot of tests that the Hue vector graph actually tends to track pretty well with the color distortions you'd see in camera.

      But we’re going back to having an observer with your method in TM30, which kinda makes the test subjective to that theoretical observer which does not represent every observer in our world since we have infinite amounts. While SSI takes that out of the equation. You compare the light to what it’s pretending to be, sun or bulb. It’s exactly like what happened with the kilogram, the reference was an actual weight (Le grand K) that was used to calibrate all kilos in the world, but that kept on changing weight due to physics basically, so they ended up Turing the reference into a qualitative equation… hence the sun and bulb became plank numbers, don’t use a reference, use math. And that’s SSI
