dont think my tv has that feature. Could see all the finger marks on Grand Day out. but going to need to watch out on the newer tvs. Those imperfections help make Ardman.
I want to know what's going on in my own brain. Why does it look like bad lighting? I never look at motion smoothing and think it looks smoother, it just looks like they used really cheap lighting on the set.
Yeah it definitely looks like home video. They are interpolating and adding more frames than were originally shot to match the refresh rate of the TV, but I don't know enough about how they interpolate to explain the home movie bad lighting effect.
Yeah, I think we interpret it as bad lighting because we associate 50/60 FPS with local news and 90s soap operas. And it tends to go hand-in-hand with TVs processing the contrast really badly.
I don't fully understand the difference between 24fps and higher frame rates in terms of aesthetic, but I did a little bit of googling and it looks like maybe there also are slight errors during interpolation for high contrast lighting. IDK whether just repeating frames would look different.
I *think* traditional film projectors show each frame twice, to minimise flicker from the shutter. So the smooth motion effect comes from seeing 50-60 points in time per second rather than 24-30. But I suspect that errors add to the sickening quality!
