Nikon D-90 De-Stepping now for After Effects

We have transferred the method to de-step the Nikon D90 footage to After Effects. Could be useful for us and will be useful for many other people.
It is in a project form. Just replace the footage, trim the composition and always render with current settings for render quality.
No way for now for batch processing, but for a single footage should work fine.
You can download it from here.

Goodbye Nikon, Hello Canon!

Well, we are finally tired of waiting.. The film is no longer shot with the D90. Tired of overpriced bodies and no manual iso control.. We switched to Canon 550d, at full 1080p24.
First tests are encouraging, since the footage has enough latitude for color correction and the extra pixels make a lot of difference (as well as the increased badwidth).
Cons: Well, the colors. with the Nikon it was a pleasure to watch the footage with no cc.
It has a film-like quality as stated by famous DoP's in the Zacuto DSLR shootout..
Also the Canons perform a lot better with Nikon Lenses (less moire, more filmy diffusion )
Shooting resumes in September full force. Stay tuned.
