Hello everyone,
That's my first encounter with the forum and I hope I'll make a clear description of my problem.
I just started working with Terragen and as I'm a filmmaker myself, I wanted to learn creating realistic environments and found Terragen to be really really good.
I've created Moon-like object with no atmosphere and sharp, low-positioned lighting.
1.On each frame the illumination seems to be different, especially in the craters, what could be the problem? I followed PlanetSide's tutorial on render settings for animation and tried to use recommended settings.
2.Can you simulate a flat (Log) color profile for further color grading process in post-production? Is there any way to increase the flexibility or dynamic range? It's mainly because I do a lot of Rec 2020 PQ, HDR delivery and was hoping to get something similar to what a cinema camera can do. (Main problem is that sometimes highlights are blown out)
3.Also, the 8K frame doesn't look photorealistic to me, it seems a bit sharp and highlights look strangely contrasty. I used detail rendering at 0.8 and AA at 8. Took me 14h to render it haha
I'm attaching a low-res test video and an 8K frame of a previous version of my project (I adjusted lighting a bit).
It's also a pleasure to join you guys and hope for a great time spent in this community.
Many thanks,
Martin
