liresius: (JR ~ Impressionist - The Shrine Cave)
[personal profile] liresius
I'm duelling banjos at the moment .. playing the S05E20 aired version in Media Player Classic alongside the pre-air in VLC. Both versions seem to have the same definition but there's a very slight, different colour wash, but they seem more equal with the aired in VLC and the pre-air in MPC . The aired has a greener cast, whereas the pre-air has more magenta, but mostly in earlier scenes involving skin tones.

I swapped them around in the players to make sure and yeah, the skin qualities in the aired have had the pink reduced and they are either greener or whiter and sometimes the uniforms are greener too ... It's splitting hairs maybe, but artists might be interested to know. There're the credits to deal with in the early scenes in the aired, the Sci-Fi logo and an advertising banners for shows as well. In the TEMP VFX scenes, there were a few differences - a couple of smoke plumes were different (maybe?), a bit more red on the outside of a spaceship in one scene, different background colours in a few shots - not really that noticeable unless you are comparing them directly, but there are some subtle differences and SF geeks might like to know.
No one not in SGA will probably even recognise the figures but click for my very blurry impressionist version of a very dark, "unrecoverable" cap from The Shrine"

BEFORE

AFTER


AND a 3rd one ~ a slightly different crop this time, with more noise ..., which I think I like better of the two.

I recognize because I did the same thing. There were several great images of John holding Rodney but you couldn't see them with the way they were shot and they moved by so quick in the show. I like the 3rd one and can see a lovely icon in it. *whistles* Very impressionistic, but then, I've always been a great lover of impressionism - and hey, that's really what the canon version of McShep is after all, the blurred lines of the relationship and the 'viewer' seeing what they want to see.

There were several great images of John holding Rodney Yeah, and it was too bad the light was so poor for those. I've got a couple more done that I'll post of those dark caps in the cave, when I get time.

Oh, that is such a wonderfully expressed link between the viewer and art. I'm glad you like the third one.

You're welcome to make an icon for yourself out of it if you like. Or if you prefer you can wait for me to!

Thank you - with your permission then, and full credit, I will. I'm sure yours will be lovely and I can't wait to see what you do with more caps.

Thank you! Yes there are a few times where John is holding Rodney in the cave, but it's just too dark for really clear art, at least for my capabilities!

Glad you like it, hon!

I love the second one.
Can't say I will miss SGA, but I will definitely miss them :(

Thank you! And sorry to be so late replying. I've been looking at this entry in my gmail inbox and thinking it was something else!

Yeah, I'm am going to/I am missing the boys! I can do without the producers screwing things up any further though.

Love your icon!
