10. The power of Avisynth
3 years ago
This example clip shows you how useful Avisynth can be to restore old 8mm films.
Please use the full download to see the clip as it should be, and I suggest to use ffdshow to see this Mpeg4 clip with decent gamma settings, like it should be.
This regular-8mm film was made in 1958 on Kodachrome. The author has used an anamorphic lens.
It was a quick and dirty (dry) transfer, the film needs more cleaning and a new wetgate transfer.
This clip is a compilation from 5 clips, so you will see the frame counter jumping....
Enjoy!
Fred.

Really a fantastic result ! You are the King of 8mm DIY transfer.
What fluid do you use for your wetgate transfer ?
Kind regards,
Rob.
I'm using Castrol Techniclean AS58 for the wetgate fluid.
PS: Elvis is The King :)
Fred.
Cheers,
David.
All post processing is done in one Avisynth script: degraining, sharpening, resizing, cropping, stabilizing, color correcting.
The script runs at 4fps on a fast computer. All parameters can be tweaked of cource.
Fred.
This is the best 8mm video I have ever seen.
Really nice job on this !
you my friend are the van de putte power behind these great images. this footage has been enhanced in such a fantastic way...
hail to the king...
Magical transfer....your work brings 1958 straight into 2009... its wonderful :)
Is there any way you can share the Avisynth script with us?
Very nice job.
You will find the script here:

Fred.
Thx for sharing the script. I use Avisynth for some videos. Your script looks like a C program.
Long live the King!
Just seen your new clips. These get more and more fantastic! I very much appreciate that you share your work and show these examples too...
I use Adobe After Effects a lot professionally, but haven't ever tried the script-based avisynth, I wonder if the processes you apply could equally be applied using AE, to achieve similar results albeit with a bit more user involvement required?
Anyway, great work, thanks again
chris from London.
I do not know if AE has the same grain removing opportunities.. The Avisynth sharpening is very special too.
Fred.
Great work you create really stunning results. I tried your scrip and also my film becomes great. Can you please explain me how i get just the procesed film without splitscreen and text?
Thanks, Michael
For this, you must return result1 instead of resultS1.
Result3 will return the clip without autowhite.
Fred.
Thanks for the fast anwser. Im realy a dummy in the scripting stuf so i don't understand what you mean with return and what to do with result1 enz. Can you clear this out for me. Do i have to change a lot to get just the filtred video?
Thnx Michael
I stil have a question. I wan't the same result as the outcome of the oiginal scrip (clip on the right). When i change the script line at end into "return (result1)" or 2,3,4 the results are not so good as the original. the clip is shaking and in the original it is realy steady. Can you please tell me what i am doing wrong or what i should do to get the same result.
Thx, Michael
Again, you can read more about the script and the people behind the plugins here:

At your service :) ,
Fred.
Still testing your script. I'm a Apple mac user. mov to avi to windows again back to apple Avi to mov. FCP do not handle 18 fps A lot to rearch for me.
You paid careful attention to the little details that add up to make the end result look very professional. It gives me great joy to see wonderful work such as this.
Fred.
I understand Avisynth is a script file but I don't know what software is used to run the script? Can you tell us what you use to load the scrip file?
To run an Avisynth script you need.... Avisynth! (haha)
A good way to start:
avisynth.org
Fred.
Please read the Avisynth/VirtualDub basics first, and start with a simple script, like I did. Soon you will get the 'feel' of Avisynth.
can u help me in this colour correction i need help .... what should me the fillter so i gett good colour correction .....Freddy Van de Putte plz help mee i m big fan of urs
Keep it simple: use Donald Crafts RGB filter for VirtualDub. This filter solves almost all color problems. You do not need my filmscript for this.
