JSFILMZ How do I get my footage right side up its upside down win I put it in unreal

[@TrevorRoper.]

Wow !!! This method is by far the best , so far ! You really are working hard to get chroma working and to my benefit :👍😄 once again a. BIG THANK YOU Treavor

[@Cjw.4]

Woaaahhhhhh awesome, the light and the exposure trick made it blend really really well !!!

[@metafuel]

This was excellent. Thanks.

[@romanbruni]

brilliant ! cheers !!!

[@g.stalevarov3634]

Thx man! its a really fast solution )

[@endratmoko_123]

Thanks, which is better result from live keying in UE or importing PNG keyed?

[@jrocket93]

good tip on the green screen correction move plane first then add it to it after if not it messes up thanks

[@walterdorado]

You don't know how much time I lost trying until I found this video, thank you very much!

[@Jsfilmz]

Walter Dorado hahahaha all good man it took me a couple of days for some stuff as well

[@sharanyanair6441]

thats an awesome tutorial! lovely! just wanted to know if there is an way to scale the characters size on green screen. i mean the characters body looks pretty big compared to the bg, but if i try to scale the plane... it doesn't affect the character inside. any solution to this ?

[@Urammar]

Hey man, really appreciate the tutorial. Giving back, instead of putting the texture directly on the plane, make a material and throw in your texture in there instead, litterally drag and drop. Connect that to emissive and put a texture coordinates node into the uv slot of the texture. Click that coordinate node and you can scale the texture dynamically to fit the plane, and it should also become local aligned instead of world aligned, so you can move the plane where you like and have it not distort. Cheers again, and pin my comment :p

[@Urammar]

You can also mask, and multiply by a 3 vector colour to colour correct dynamically, and multiply the entire output by a constant to control brightness without involving post processing.

good job bro i love it 👍👍👍👆👆👆

I can not see BP_cinemacameraProj in UE4.26.... Without it you do not have access to the PROJECTION settings... Any idea?

[@elburne1438]

Hi, great tutorial! I'm new with UE4 but I wanted to know how can I export the video with audio? Can't seem to get that right. My video exports fine but without audio.

[@cheesecakeweasel7517]

What I've been doing (might not be right) go in the level sequence, hit the green + track button and choose audio there, and then drag your audio track onto it - when you render it will make a separate .wav file in your render folder

[@sampictures]

Thanks for the great tutorial. I got a problem. When I move my camera my footage moves with it. can't animate the camera. It changes the scale and position of the footage like it is attached to the camera.

[@ericohiani1647]

Bro pls are you using same unreal engine to Render your scene as image sequence?

[@MikeStJean]

does this work with multiple planes and videos ?

[@MrCharlieBG]

It's possible to use Composite Plane with tracking the camera for live video input. I make some experiments but projections on plane move faster ...

[@daesmasfun9230]

Hi There! Great Tut. I have a doubt, my scene is , i am standing and i have to keep it on a desert environment in ue4. Is it possible to create shadows of myself and light reflections after keying.. Thanks.

[@Jsfilmz]

if you change it to masked like i did in the tutoria, it should render shadows

[@daesmasfun9230]

@@Jsfilmz Thanks A Lot! BTW the way you present the tutorial is just amazing, unique and humurous too. God Bless You and your family..!!

[@mitwill2133]

so...how do you make the media texture start when you want it to?

[@lucianomagnone7568]

i don't get why such a easy function in Blender such as "Import images as planes" its so messy and counter intuitive in ue4. Thanks for the video,i'm getting a headache using this software xd.

[@ukmonk]

yeah i normally key out my footage in AE, export out as png sequence or video file, then into blender as images as planes and easy to drop into any CG scene i want. Is this not possible in UE4?

[@lucianomagnone7568]

@@ukmonk Yes that's the way to go. I left ue4 at the moment so i wouldn't know really, but maybe if you import your file with images as planes in Blender and then use the Blender to Ue4 addon, maybe that would work. I need to try it out haha.

[@ukmonk]

@@lucianomagnone7568 thanks for replying. yeah i tried that and doesn't work! the addon pipeline to UE4 is cool though! although wish they would make it work for simulations etc or sort out the alembic

[@lucianomagnone7568]

​@@ukmonk Thats unlucky, gotta keep working around that problem i guess. Probably in the future the pipeline between softwares and Blender gets better, Blender is getting a lot of support from major tech devs, so unless its really necesary, i would keep using Blender instead and practicing nodes until it gets good enough. Good luck!

[@ukmonk]

@@lucianomagnone7568 oh i use blender for 95% of my work, UE4 is awesome though for lighting and rendering as there is no lag or slowdown. both are great bits of kit.

[@Nerdydan1]

So I'm getting a white plane once I add a video texture to the plane, can someone please point me in the right direction on this?

[@DarylGungadoo]

Does png image sequence work that much better than .MP4 or .MOV ?

[@Jsfilmz]

[@ConnorBobonner]

Hi JSFILMZ! I had a problem once you got to the cine camera part of the tutorial. I searched but I didn't get any camera called "BP_cineCameraproj" show up? How did you get this camera? Thanks so much for the tutorials!

[@Jsfilmz]

Connor Bobonner have to enable plugin in the beginning. You skipped a step

[@ConnorBobonner]

@@Jsfilmz I tried adding the plug in but I don't have the beta and I can't find a download for it anywhere? Thanks for answering my questions by the way!

[@johnroque]

Have you figured out how to color correct separately?

[@tezzo5955]

how do you scale the green screen plane, down to a smaller size, my green screen look like a giant it's to big

[@mario-off-topic]

Did you find out how to do that?

[@JheredStern]

Hey great video but I got lost at the end when you did the render. My render came out perfect but with one issue. I am only getting the first few seconds of the film. The whole thing is 42 seconds long. What am I doing wrong here?

[@JheredStern]

Oh and I uncheck the custom end frame in the animations section.

[@DarylGungadoo]

I had the same issue... Initially, thought it was RAM. Then I found a trick, of extending the green screen video to 3x the original length... It still locks up, but after the useful render.

[@SGRuLeZ_Art]

Thank you for your tutorials! But I have a problem: everything plays perfectly in the sequence, but when rendering the video texture plays three times faster! How can I fix it ?

[@DJZen]

hey...what Anti Aliasing you used in the project ? FXAA or TAA ??

[@Jsfilmz]

DJ Zen the default one works well bro i think its fxaa ill double check

[@DJZen]

TAA making the video look lil smudy and smeared ! FXAA is sharp for live / video , but the environment gets lil jagged edges ! its a tradeoff :/ In composure the live looks good in TAA , but to get the output in a 3D feel, u gotta use sequencer and its a bit annoying !

[@Jsfilmz]

@@DJZen you can use obs screen recorder too if you want some people do that

[@aerick1]

how would you make the plane cast a shadow

[@AICineVerseStudios]

Man , how are you able to calculate the aspect ratio of the plane to fit your media ? I tried mine as per my media and the whole thing get stretched in x axis and I am not able to find how to fix it?

@@Jsfilmz haha, i thought that video was super on point. do you think the TAA issue is resolvable ?

[@Nerdydan1]

Is there a way to animate the camera and keep the plane from moving?

[@Jsfilmz]

yea just animate the camera thats why i like this method because the plane is on the 3d scene

[@hvytyphoon]

how can i play video on plane on full screen?Using button

[@ablevi5774]

I think is pointless using that way the composite plane. It is fixed to the camera because you are projecting the plate and only showing up the area covered by that plane. So its the same as using composure but without the power of that keyer, as long as the composite plane one is really bad. I think that the point is using this composite plane to project footage over more complex geometry, so you can project over a building or a tree or a group of trees. I really wonder how can we get composure keyer capabilities on a moving plane. Maybe with a more complex material? Anyway, thanks for your videos, are great.

[@Jsfilmz]

Ab Levi also one of the biggest plus for this method instead of composure is you can place the plane inside 3d space. Composure is 2d. I can animate the camera with composite plane like im actually in the house. Composure you cannot

[@ablevi5774]

@@Jsfilmz not agree. You only can see the video in the camera limited by where is the plane. If you change the plane nothing happens in 3d, only crops the image.

[@Jsfilmz]

Ab Lev right but with composure if u move the camera the subject floats in front the whole time like its a ghost

[@ablevi5774]

JSFILMZ is almost the same. Is still floating but delimited by the plane

[@Jsfilmz]

keyer in unreal engine is not as good as after effects. Try my other two methods since the other ones use different keyers. Composure gives the best keyer since it has despill

@@Morso.mertal im sure epic games is tracking they need to come up with a better keyer and it looks like they add a new plugin every now and then to do just that

Shwan Loghmani composure is a plugin and so is composite plane which is the one i usex here

[@DarylGungadoo]

Awesome step-by-step instructions. For some reason, I noticed that my GreenScreen video capture locks up at about 1/3 of the way. It's not related to RAM, as the patch that I've found is to just create 2/3 more of blank green screen material... then it works. I also noticed that provided the BP_CineCam is in the scene, I can create other "normal" cameras, that move around and take different perspectives of the shoot. However, moving around the BP_CineCam moves the greenscreen on the plane. This was my first GreenScreen in UE4, thanks to you: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYawpZhrZ755hLM

You can do better tutorials if you actually shot the greenscreen right not cutting off the hands and things like that.

You don't even know what you're doing. what way is this? you couldn't place a video of yours there properly. What will the viewers understand? Don't confuse people with things you don't know. what you show is not the correct setup
