Every day, we get closer to an adobe free world 

Does it still work to upgrade a tier of creative suite and then cancel within 14 days? You know, since you are now on a «new product» they have to accept that you want to cancel said product, due to consumer law.

I used this to get out from paying a whole year, when I was led to believe I could pay month-by-month… But they demanded I pay the entire year when I didnt need it after three months, and this was not exactly clear anywhere I could read prior.

Anyways, good riddance adobe. Never touching you again with a ten foot pole, thats for sure. Not even if the project would benefit from it, not dealing w them. 

Last time I had to rent adobe software, I did the shortest window possible. Month to month I believed, however, ofcourse they demanded I pay the entire year when I wanted to cancel it 3 months in… At no point was this made clear beforehand ofcourse.

However, when you upgrade to a different tier, in essence you are getting into a new “contract” that you can cancel within 14 days. I suggest this for anyone stuck in there to get out instantly wout paying their insane year long exploitative contracts.

Then buy or use any of the high quality apps you can outright just buy or download open source for free. 

Another point is that once the resolution in the headsets goes up to say 8k per eye, the capture will have to jump to 200mp to do 360VR in a good resolution for that new tech. If I was a movie production house, I would be looking at capture in the highest possible resolution for 3d, to be futuresafe. 

180VR could prove to be THE format for movies though, seems like it might be hard to do narrative action if your audience is more interested in something that is happening the complete other direction, and there is also the problem of having the entire production staff in the picture…

It does seem like tech does have some hurdles to jump, which is cool. 

I think the 100 mp stereoscopic capture would be enough to fill the entire 360 space in good resolution, and that is what the article’s Canon guy is talking about. 360VR if you will. Most 360VR capture is not in stereo. And if they are, it looks very low resolution.

4k capture should be enough? If you think about it… 4k is just one locked view of what you look at, a 4k portion of the whole 360 view. The fact that you can look around everywhere, means that it is actually closer to 100mp to catch the entire scene.

I suspect Ai will be quite good at making older movies 3d, and likely can upscale ok too from lower res capture. I see some advancement in that, but no definite solution just yet.



All in all, AR/VR video is very much in its babystage still. No professional great systems are available, but I do think that AVP entering the market has sent the likes of canon into the labs, which is great to know.
