在2024 BIRTV展会上,尊正携手中国影视摄影师学会(CNSC)和国际调色师协会(CSI)举行了一场圆桌会议,主题为“HDR的未来已来!”。
At BIRTV 2024, Kevin Shaw, President of the Colorist Society, chaired a panel hosted by the Chinese Society of Cinematographers (CNSC) to discuss the use of High Dynamic Range (HDR) today.
在本次圆桌会议中,Kevin 分享了 HDR 正在改变创作内容的五种方式:
Here, Kevin shares is thoughts:
自2016年推出以来,HDR就一直备受热议,但随着它的发展,时至今日,我们依然在探索HDR在未来的视觉世界中将会扮演的角色。
HDR has been debated since its launch in 2016, but as it evolves, we are still discovering the part it will play in tomorrow’s visual universe.
以下是这次圆桌会议中关于HDR如何塑造2024年电影制作行业涉及的五个主题:
Here are five themes that arose in the recent panel discussion about how HDR is shaping filmmaking in 2024:
1.打破限制 Removing limitations
HDR可以打破标准动态范围(SDR)电影制作的限制,真正为创造者提供更大的“范围”。HDR能让电影摄影师更加轻松地处理天空以及其他自然拥有高对比度的场景,还能获取更加广阔的色彩范围,从而增强视觉效果的整体深度和真实度。HDR不仅仅能呈现亮度更高的图像,它还可以为观众打造更具沉浸感的体验。通过利用全新的HDR显示技术,电影制作者可以以更加感性的方式吸引观众。
HDR’s ability to remove the limitations of Standard Dynamic Range (SDR) filmmaking is giving creators more range – literally. HDR allows cinematographers an easier way to deal with sky and other naturally high contrast situations, and to access a broader spectrum of colors which enhances the overall depth and realism of their visuals. HDR is about much more than just brighter images – it’s about creating a more immersive experience for viewers. By harnessing the new HDR display technologies, filmmakers can involve audiences in a much more emotional way.
2.追求更高的美学目标 Pursuing aesthetic goals
HDR 从根本上将关注的重点从克服技术挑战转为追求更具美感的目标。借助 HDR,电影摄影师可以利用现代化的布光和近几年色彩管理方面的改进来探索创意构想。这一进步意味着电影制作者可以捕捉到能与观众在更深的情感层次产生共鸣的精彩故事。更加广阔的动态范围可以转化为更加细腻的叙事,让暗部和高光都呈现精细的细节。
HDR fundamentally shifts the focus from overcoming technical challenges to pursuing more aesthetic goals. With HDR, cinematographers are empowered to explore creative visions using modern lighting and the improvements in color management from recent years. This evolution means that filmmakers can capture stunning narratives that resonate on a deeper emotional level. The increased dynamic range translates into more nuanced storytelling, allowing subtle details to shine through in both shadows and highlights.
3、增强“可见性” Enhanced visibility
HDR不仅改善了观众的观看体验,还为电影摄影师提供了工具,让他们可以更多地看到他们拍摄到的内容。图像捕捉的更高可见性意味着专业人士可以实时微调他们的镜头,最终拍出更加精细的成片。这一进步为电影摄影师创造了一个令人兴奋的机会,让他们能够拓展自己技术的边界,尤其是在拍摄阶段初期与完成片制作调色师合作时。
HDR not only enhances the viewing experience for audiences, but also equips cinematographers with tools to see more of what they’re capturing. The improved visibility of image capture means that professionals can finetune their shots in real time, ultimately leading to a more polished final product. This advancement creates an exciting opportunity for cinematographers to push the boundaries of their craft, especially when collaborating with the finishing colorist early in production.
4、成本更低,实用性更高 More affordable, more ergonomic
尽管HDR监视器一度被人们认为价格过高,但在2024 BIRTV圆桌会议上,我们看到了更新、价格更加实惠且适合人们使用的解决方案。这为更加广阔的市场打开了大门,让新手电影制作者和规模更小的制片公司也能使用大型制片公司的同款工具。HDR让高质量项目不再是顶尖专业人士的专属领域,它鼓励以前所未有的质量、更多样的声音讲述更多样的故事。
Although HDR displays were once deemed prohibitively expensive, the BIRTV 2024 panel celebrated the newer, increasingly affordable and ergonomic solutions. This opens the door for a broader market, enabling emerging filmmakers and smaller production companies to access the same tools as major studios. With HDR, high-quality production is no longer the exclusive domain of the elite, allowing for a more diverse range of voices and stories to be told with unprecedented quality.
5、激发灵感 Heightened inspiration
随着讨论接近尾声,我们清楚地认识到HDR不仅仅只是一项技术上的进步;它还是一个能激发灵感的工具,能重新燃点电影制作行业热情。许多与会成员都表示,在体会过HDR提供的自由度和活力之后就很难再重新用回SDR。HDR的情感力量让电影制作者们能花更少的功夫,以更高的创意来表达他们的构想,从而带来一个更加令人享受、更充实的制作过程。
As the discussion drew to a close, it became clear that HDR is more than just a technological advancement; it’s an inspiring tool that rekindles great passion within the filmmaking community. Many panelists expressed how hard it is to revert to SDR after experiencing the freedom and vibrancy that HDR provides. The emotive power of HDR allows filmmakers to express their visions with less labor and more creativity, leading to a more enjoyable and fulfilling production process.
2024 BIRTV圆桌会议呼吁世界各地的电影制作者使用HDR。通过打破限制、改善色彩管理以及使这项技术更易于获取,HDR使得电影摄影师的技艺水平得到提升。随着我们的不断进步,HDR无疑将在决定未来的视觉叙事中发挥关键作用——因此,现在正是加入电影界的激动时刻。
The BIRTV 2024 panel was a call for filmmakers everywhere to embrace HDR. By removing limitations; enhancing color management; and making this technology more accessible; HDR empowers cinematographers to elevate their art. As we move forward, HDR will undoubtedly play a crucial role in defining the future of visual storytelling – making this an exciting time to be a part of the cinematic world.
