Ed Applying luma curve to photos and footage

[Oystein]

I feel the same as ahhell. I don't watch videos unless the poster summarizes the salient points, and provides a time stamp for where said points can be found. Not enough time in the day.

He took a screenshot of my opening post of the thread I made of him, and of a frame of the YT video I linked there, and then did some rapid, aimless image manipulation - playing with intensity, gamma, contrast, whatever.

There is no discernible point made.

I watched the 2nd video. I have no idea what the salient points were nor where they could be found. Which is quite a feat in a video that runs just less than a minute.

It appears to be some kind of analysis of the technical quality of a video of building 7 collapsing. No indication of how many generations old the video is or how it may have been compressed or filtered or scaled or any of that stuff. No explanation of what the analysis showed.

Do i need to bring you examples of difficulties had during the Commission. Do i need to bringnyou the publicly documented facts? Do i need to do your research for you?

Look big guy. You are all a joke. And a team too. Ill be back to deal with hilarious mess you have enjoyed creating.

Difficulties do not mean things are insurmountable. It means they had issues. The can work to resolve them.

Heck, its not even surprising! There were balls dropped that led to that day. Some people didn't want to admit it and would stonewall. Its human nature but it doesn't mean the commission was doomed.

You know 9/11 did not actually happen on YouTube, right?

Without the background music it smacks of TikTok re-post.

So, itchy and scratchy then?

ETA: does that second video tell me what's in the first one?

I didn't watch the first one. It looked as if it was going to be a tutorial on some aspect of manipulating transparency layers in video or still images. If nt1 wants to explain the relevance, the floor is his. If he just wants to set people homework, he needs to make a more interesting case first.

I had the sound off, as usual. It's sad but my first thought on being directed to such stuff is whether we're just being used to generate revenue hits. But with such a pitifully small number of people engaged it really couldn't be worth the effort.

Good lord!!!!!

Ok. Ok. Ok.

Forgive my ignorance but, color manipulation of a video, I don't follow what that is meant to show us. Its probably obvious to the most casual of observers, just not me.

" ! Video Unavailable Watch on YouTube"

Do you have some words you could use to express your point instead of argument by YouTube?

I will always forgive ignorance. Always. It is never bad to be ignorant. Its only bad to ignore something once youve learned. That is stupid.

There is a very strong chance the alpha channel halo was inserted after to discredit. More likely than they were so poor at their job that its in everything.

It doesnt matter. Any form of manipulation is cause for an investigation.

Fixed it for you.

Clear as mud.

Thank you. Thank you. That was all i asked for in the first place. Thank you. Geez.

Why didn't you just do it yourself?

 

[nt1]

Did i send you your homework? Jack. If you werent one of the ones being argumentative foe the sake of it, I apologize for my tone. But, no. Science right? Nature right? Humanism right? Natural light cannot be replicated.

Clear as mud.

Clear as mud.

Good one.

Masking varwoche. masking. The building has a masking line around it. There is a masking line around the building. On the building is a masking line. The masking line is around the face of the building.

That is a poor question in a forum that demands science. To be unbiased. Pick a card. Any card. Geeeeeez

Ok.

A little snarky. But,ok. No one gets it. Maybe thats me* being ignornant of the common understanding of what we are looking at.

Does that mean everyone has calmed down and would like me to explain?

I infer you believe you have detected signs of manipulation in this video and are considering whether it is poor fakery or deliberate intent to discredit the original.


I presume you appreciate that the various videos made on 9/11 were recorded on video tape, and the investigators would have sought those original tapes and not download copies from YouTube a decade or more later.

Masking line. Alpha halo.

Applied in composites.

Natural Light cannot be imitated. Probably can today.... they will probably go fix all these now... but hey. I tried.

Here is a real plane and a plane composited into footage.

Why is the "masking line" only on sunlit edges?
