OT: The Official Toronto Raptors Thread

Wtf....

@CH1

Is that all just really really good masking and rotoscoping?

The movement of the frame is what's getting me, but the final product looks pretty low res so maybe it's a 8-12K wide frame and they're using dynamic zoom within a static camera shot with a combination good masking and maybe some rotoscope?

Well beyond my experience/skill level, that's nice as hell to watch.

Also, fuck the celtics.

Hmmmm. I think you’re right about the process but I’m gonna ask one of my elite editor colleagues.

A lot of this fancy stuff requires a shit ton of patience/man hours vs artistic skill
 
While I wait, it’s definitely a 4k camera (maybe even higher)… and masking as you said.

I also think there’s a subtle hand held shake added in post so that it looks natural/more realistic
 
epic comeback for OT.

and then for some insane reason coach puts MCDANIELS in for OT and they get crushed. He was in for Gradey who made all sorts of huge clutch plays down the stretch for the comeback.

now he's finally taking him out down 7 halfway thru OT.

just an insanely dumb choice.

i guess he's trying to tank.

Otto Porter retires

If we're talking about a stealth mention on the list of guys in the last 20 years who should have had way better careers, Otto is there. Was healthy for 3 seasons in his career. Turned the first 2 of them into a contract for life changing money, and the 3rd one into being a key role player on a championship squad. Almost cosmically lucky in that regard, but he was real gud. Could have been 12-15 of being a rich man's OG.
 
Masai's draft record is ridiculous. What is it, just 2 first round picks that didn't amount to anything? Out of 8? With many in the 20s? Kind of fucked up.

Yeah, under Masai the Raptors have been the best drafting team in the league by a fair margin. The 2nd best has been Denver, which is the scouting staff he had a big part in building.

I'm kind of waiting for him to pull Dillingham/Salaun out of the 6 spot as a star in a draft that isn't supposed to have any, and then Missi at the 15 pick and have him turn out to be an elite rim runner.

I think Walter is their target if they keep their top 6 pick , Salaun might be 2-3 years from contributing but is a high end prospect
