360° Immersive Birthday Meeting
Pontuação 3.00 em 5

Hi folks,

this one comes with a big delay. The birthday meeting has been in August 2011. Guess who is celebrating? The hostess Valéria has achieved Bruno’s record and has shown herself 8 times in the picture.

360° Panoramic Birthday

Technical data sheet:

People got too close to each other at this picture. It has made the stitching a little difficult. Most of the joining job has been made in GIMP. In a group like that, where there is people in almost all the horizontal field of view, it is maybe necessary to do a more intensive direction job to guide people’s position and avoid hours and hours of post edition.

See you, Cartola.

Workshop at IV GnuGraf
Pontuação 3.00 em 5
[?]

Hi there,

after a month without publishing due to vacation, end of the year and so on, I come back here. The first 2012 panorama is from 2011, as it could be expected. This was made during the workshop on Immersive Panoramas with Opensource Software at the IV GnuGraf, in Rio de Janeiro, Brasil. It was on September 11th at UNIRIO, a University in town. The guy standing up and giving instructions is me with a FreeBSD T-shirt from its 10th anniversary in 2003 (ok, it’s an old T-shirt).

It was a Sunday morning, 9AM and it was raining. This made me believe that the 7 students that have shown up were an excellent number of spectators to the meeting. The picture was used to teach how to make a 360×180 degrees panorama. I thought about doing an outdoor image, but the rain made me give up.

There is no special or ordinary beauty in the picture, but it is reasonably well done and is a good souvenir to remember the moment. It was my first class on this subject.

Meeting Some Friends at Cobal do Leblon, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Pontuação 3.00 em 5

This picture is just to remember this moment with some good friends. Those, including me, are people from CAP-UERJ, which was our school from 1983 to 1989 and for some since 1979. In fact this is just a small group from there. We have a mailing list with about 120 people.

This time I asked people to look at the camera, so I wouldn’t hear those female complaining about taking them in a not adequated position.

Technical datasheet:

The photo itself is not very good. Maybe I should have increased the ISO and used a noise reduction filter then. Surely if I have used RAW it would have helped too. The stitching didn’t worked very well and I had to make some post editing to join some lines, mainly on the nadir view, not only to remove the tripod.

See you, Cartola.

Latinoware 2011 in 360 degrees
Pontuação 3.00 em 5
[?]

Hi fellows,

these are two panoramic pictures I made in Latinoware 2011. The first one was made on october 20th, 2011 at the Zabbix speech. The second one was on the 21st during the panoramic photography workshop I did. I liked very much the workshop and I hope the students also liked. Hope we can have some more 360 photographers after that and maybe some more people to colaborate with the free software. The Zabbix speech was made by Alexei Vladisevs, its creator. For those who doesn’t know, Zabbix is a free software used to monitor computers and networks. Take a look at its site: http://www.zabbix.com/

On this second image I didn’t make a nadir picture without the tripod. As the nadir had only grass it was easy to take the tripod off with the clone tool using GIMP.

See you, Cartola.

Pablo Lapidusas at National Museum of Fine Arts, Rio de Janeiro, Brasil
Pontuação 3.00 em 5

Hi people,

this is one more 360 picture in a Music at the Museum project. This one was taken last June during a presentation of Pablo Lapidusas, a Brazilian pianist. On this one we can see a beautiful room of the National Museum of Fine Arts, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Please, never mind about the sound quality, cause I recorded it on my cell phone.

I liked the final image quality. There are some ghosts due to the combination of 3 expositions with enfuse. Whoever moved turned into a ghost :)

See you, Cartola.

Show at Light Cultural Center

During one more daily edition of the Música no Museu (Music at the Museum) project I’ve had the pleasure to see the Yellow Cake band show. The group plays vocal and is formed by four Eletronuclear employees: Carlos Marcondes, Geraldo Pauluzzi, José Ricardo e Luciano Salvador. They have played with the musicians: Alexandre Caldi (­Sax and Flute), Carlos César Motta ­ (Drums), Daniel Drummond (­Bass), Nando Duarte (Electric Guitar) e Raphael Montechiari (Keyboards).

I went there specially to see my childhood friend Alexandre Caldi. Unfortunately the picture hardly shows him, but he is there, I swear. At the end the one that is better shown in the photo is myself :) As the photographer usually doesn’t show in the picture I guess I can do that sometimes :)

I liked the flare effects on the final pano.

See you, Cartola.

FISL 12 – Central Events Square

This is one more pano from FISL 12 in 2011. This time I show you a picture from the central square where were the expositors at the conference. I have shoot 5 panoramas at FISL 12, so there are 2 more for me to mount. In this one I had my friend Mônica helping me as a model to make the picture nicer :) Thanks Mônica! Although it is not an outdoor picture I liked very much the initial little planet format in the starting animation. You can click with the right mouse button to see the picture in other formats, including little planet.

And as usual, for more information about FISL follows their official site link.

Curiosity

The main actress, Monica, is looking forward and making a V signal with her hand. Curiously each of these parts were originally in a separate picture. In fact, believe in it or not, it was not intentional.

Monica Composition

Monica1 + Monica2 = Monica3

Technical data sheet:

This time as I shoot over the red carpet it was not necessary to use an extra nadir picture to remove the tripod image. I really think I need to improve my image quality next time. Maybe I’m gonna stop using so closed apertures like f22.

This time I also used ImageMagick more than I’m used to. I used the “convert” command line utility to change original images color, contrast and brightness.

See you, Cartola.
