Being the consummate magician, I asked if they wanted to see some magic and wore out all of my impromptu card stuff, including the best ACR I could muster while drunk. So I'm sitting in a bar, nursing my 4th beer when the guy next to me played cards with his friends. That was until one night when out of town on business, with nothing to do thanks to that particular city shutting down at 7pm. Not really wanting to flush my thirty bucks down the toilet by ordering his DVD when the method was entirely too obvious (thanks to years of Card Under Watch performances), I pretty much ignored the entire effect. I first learned Paperclipped by watching the demo. Not only is this one effect sold as a stand-alone DVD for $30, but you can also buy it on Sankeytized Vol 2, or Best of Sankey (under the name or on Front Row Sankey as a variation called "Full Lotus". Just a subtlety I thought up, dunno if original or not.Īh Paperclipped, Sankeys most overtaught effect. Your prediction when revealed is in blue ink, but of course you never mention it, but the spectator definitely notices, making for it impossible for you to have written that prediction earlier. Since the spectator already wrote with it, they assume it's black. Put into your pocket, and a couple minutes later you need to write a prediction, so you pull out the blue sharpie with a black cap. Have spectator sign their card with a black sharpie. Put the black cap on the blue sharpie, and switch during performance. Purchase the four pack of sharpies (blue, red, green, black) and an extra black one. If you're writing down a prediction during performance, why not do it in a different colored ink? That way, when the spec is trying to backtrack the trick in their mind, it's impossible. We have this new RGB LED spotlights in a park, I'm gonna take a walk and shoot some clips today, will try to catch this negative-blue effect.Paperclipped Special Edition by Jay Sankey - my reviewīefore I begin the review, I had an idea while watching the video. It would be nice if "highlight reconstruction" in MLV App could fix this, somehow. Unfortunately I already deleted MLVs with bright sky example. In a day time, I get this artefact even not on the sun, but in the bright sky. I haven't tried Resolve yet, I'm using MLVApp -> Premiere, for now.įor some reason it is very easy to get this blown-out sun effect, this example was shot on relatively cloudy day, it was already evening and sunset, not a lot of light. The easiest way for me (for now) is to mask it away in post, since it is always surrounded by some blank area, masking is relatively easy. Reducing the white level works, but it seems like I'm loosing some highlight details this way. I kind of knew about this phenomenon, but never thought it could happen so easily on a "pro" camera. Like majority of all sensors, the RGGB pattern will cause Pink highlights in the sun or Blacksun in BM's case(not sure about BRAW). And the other way around setting Linear - to ACES color space which is a huge color space will cause pink highlights because the RGB Pixels are not clipping at the same level. Squeezing 14 bit linear in to a Rec709 color space will cause clipping and out of gamut solarization that has to be adjusted for. RE RE Edit: The clipping is also heavily influenced by your color space e.g. RE-EDIT: Found the baldavenger post: Very good read. I can’t recall and I never tried it.ĮDIT: How do your clipped blues look on the waveform? I assume clipped, try adding Green and Red, subtract blue. Maybe it was a combination of one of his DCTL’s and dng manipulation. In his workflow highlight reconstruction wont work anymore, so pulling highlight slider wont have any effect. I cant find the thread by baldavenger, but he made a post about altering the dng’s in order to get perfect white and a full signal straight in to Resolve. I usually mitigate it by turning luma mix off and pushing green in to the highlights, easy fix. Try the same clips in Resolve, yes they will have pinkish highlights, but not as saturated/“artifacty” like your example.
