Over the last nine months I've started working with 4K video files quite a lot and OMG wtf is going on with file sizes
I'd been happily managing my entire digital world based on the file sizes associated with photography and graphic design. Nothing too chunky, anything over 50MB is rare.
Now I'm eating up 1GB of HDD for every sinlgle minute of unedited video video resolution increases must make the hard drive manufacturers very happy
4K File sizes
Re: 4K File sizes
And I've recorded a load of TikToks this morning without focussing the camera so I've got plenty of lovely footage focussed on the wall behind me
Re: 4K File sizes
You need one of those AI sharpening algorithms
I suppose expected file sizes are keeping pace with cost of storage.

Re: 4K File sizes
The costs of terabytes of storage seems to be prohibitively expensive still - I don't think the price falls are keeping up with file size increases.
Make sure all your TikToks are 4K though, eh, Gav. Don't want the teenagers on their phones to avoid your channel due to poor resolution

Re: 4K File sizes
Fuck I hear this.
In my last (Satan) job I was in charge of data storage for all of our media production - and the marketing peeps were like 4K is dead, we need 8k for everything... dicks!
Meanwhile I stay as far away from video as possible.

Re: 4K File sizes
You just need a button, like they have in TV shows, the one that takes a 16-bit thumbnail and expands it out to to full HD so they can read the serial number of back of the perp's watch.
Store everything as low-res, expand out to whatever res you need for production. Simples.

Oh Jesus, 8K
Video is cool but creating anything beyond sixty seconds is too much

Of course, I love the way it's possible to take out of focus images and make them pin-sharp in moviesSundayjumper wrote: ↑Thu Jun 09, 2022 9:12 am You just need a button, like they have in TV shows, the one that takes a 16-bit thumbnail and expands it out to to full HD so they can read the serial number of back of the perp's watch.
