Action Module Overview
Using Floating Point Images
You
can use 16-bit floating point OpenEXR clips in Action. You can
use clips of different resolutions on separate media, but you cannot
specify clips of different resolutions to act as the front and matte
clip of a specific media. Here are some things to keep in mind when
working with 16-bit floating point clips:
- You
are not able to enter the Colour Corrector, Keyer, or Stabilizer
from Action with a 16-bit floating point clip. An error appears
in the Action message bar, and the module does not open.
- All
other Media List effects, such as blurring, cropping, and slipping
are supported for 16-bit floating point clips, as are all Action objects.
- Action operations
and settings that are supported with 16-bit floating point clips
include textures,
displacement mapping, motion blur, blending modes, anti-aliasing,
and depth of field.
- You
can enable or disable colour clamping when working with 16-bit floating
point clips in Action. When colour clamping is disabled, a light’s
intensity can be set to brighter than 100% or darker than 0%, for
example. The Colour Clamping button is located in the Setup menu’s
Rendering section.
- You
can set the output resolution for your Action composite to 16-bit
fp in the Frame Depth box located in the Setup menu’s Resolution
section.
- You
are not able to burn 16-bit floating point clips. An error appears
in the Action message bar.
