Advanced photography workflow tips.

As always a work in progress.....Think of this as my personal work in progress whiteboard.

Ultimate convert images to a movie.

ffmpeg -r 30 -f image2 -start_number 2786 -i IMG_%04d.JPG -vf hflip,vflip,scale=1920:-1 -codec:v prores -profile:v 3 bannanasky_deflickered.mov

https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Scaling%20%28resizing%29%20with%20ffmpeg

recursively resize. (careful)

find . -name '*.jpg' -o -name '*.JPG' -print0 | xargs -0 mogrify -resize 1024">" -quality 40
find . -name "*.JPG~" -type f -delete

Move odd numbered images to a directory called odd.

mkdir odd; mv *[13579].JPG odd

likewise copy

mkdir odd; cp *[13579].JPG odd

then to quickly make another sequence out of those files...

Making image files into an ordered number sequence.

ffmpeg -r 30 -f image2 -i %04d.JPG -vf hflip,vflip,scale=1920:-1 -codec:v prores -profile:v 3 preview.mov

Ufraw:

for file in *.UFR ; do mv $file `echo $file | sed 's/\(.*\.\)UFR/\1ufraw/'` ; done

ufraw-batch *.ufraw --out-type=jpeg

http://transcoding.wordpress.com/2012/01/29/prores-ffmpeg/

ffmpeg -i input.mov -vcodec prores -profile:v NUMBER -an output.mov

For different flavors of ProRes replace NUMBER with a number from zero to 3 where:

0 : ProRes422 (Proxy)

1 : ProRes422 (LT)

2 : ProRes422 (Normal)

3 : ProRes422 (HQ)

ffmpeg -f image2 -r 30 -i a_%04d.jpg -codec:v prores -profile:v 3 movie.mov

#max size that works so far 5008x3339 pixels. not sure if the limitation is on the width or height.

isight or any other camera high quality capture

(it will do up to 100fps)

ffmpeg -f qtkit -video_device_index 0 -i "" -r 30 -codec:v prores -profile:v 1 out2.mov
ffmpeg -f qtkit -list_devices true -i ""

----------

registax --- works on star videos!

turn in camera sharpening off !!.

ffmpeg -i MVI_9673.MOV -vcodec rawvideo -acodec none MVI_9673.avi
for i in *.MOV
do
ffmpeg -i $i \
-acodec none \
-vcodec rawvideo \
$(echo $i | sed 's/\.MOV$//').avi
done

---------------------

imagemagick

also need to install ufraw

convert *.CR2 -average average.jpg

try tif output (many, bits)

convert *.CR2 -average average.jpg

-complex operator

perform complex mathematics on an image sequence

Choose from these operators:

add conjugate divide magnuitude-phase multiply real-imaginary subtract
