ENDA Episode 193→ The time when ENDA gets in a bullet fight with John Wick (Part 9)
However, if we look at the video below, we’ll see that the entire plate is being regrained. Why?
In a previous episode, we hinted that a full breakdown was coming soon. However, there was still one final step missing before completing the integration: regrain.
Regraining is the process of matching the grain of all our added elements to the grain of the original plate. It usually comes at the very end, after the most noticeable phases are done: tracking, colour integration, edge treatment, and so on.
However, if we look at the video below, we’ll see that the entire plate is being regrained. Why?
Because matching the grain element by element can be an extremely long and tedious process.
Instead, we work on the whole comp using a denoised plate, and once everything is in place and the shot is ready, we apply the regrain pass once to the final result. If you use DasGrain, the process becomes even smoother.
Now that the regraining is done, we’re finally ready to release the full breakdown.
But that will be for another episode.
The journey continues…
