HDR with a 3D rig

[AStamper]

I always toyed with the idea of shooting like you did, then exporting the image sequence to photoshop then use their HDR work to stitch them together.

I don't know if it would work but I've thought about it as an interesting workflow. One day I'll do a still life for a proof of concept maybe.

Here is another motion HDR clip. We did not shoot a grid or do any fixing in post as the optical pathway is virtually perfect with the OmniRig, once it is dialed down to zero it really is zero. We did the tone mapping in CS5 AE.

this looks pretty amazing... like where this is heading. IMHO... better use of a 3D rig, and no glasses required.

2 burst frames, within the 180 divided in to say 60 +120

wouldn't it produce different motion blur?
or maybe I'm missing something here?

I proposed the idea of recording "exposure cycles" (instead of conventional shutter) to RED back when it was first developing the camera and asked for ideas from users to make their great camera greater. I don't think they heard me then, but now, looking at this idea, could this be the same thinking behind this?

Reminds me of something tangental - watched a docu about the rock band Queen - they used to sing the backup harmonies with lows, mids, and highs assigned. Then double and triple track with each singer also doing a pass singing the other two parts - how they got that shimmering, amazing tone.

Which is why their sound will endure for a long time, and auto-tune gimmicks will not, IMHO.

Another tangental example akin to this... how Brian Eno recorded David Bowie on Heros, setting up three mics at increasing distance from David, each on it's own gate. As he increasingly sang louder, the gates would open up one by one adding to the depth of the track and filling the sound with the natural reverb of the space.
