I dug out some raw recordings of Star's shoots from 2012 and 2013. They contain quite a lot of material and I have decided to remaster some of it. The first of these will be out today, called "Fantasy Services", where Star hires a company that specializes in surprise kidnappings. Naturally, things don't turn out quite the way that she expects.
The video itself is really HD when I import it - the raw data files are about 30 GB per shoot - so there's a lot to work with. With this one, I used "Neat" to remove the slight snowiness of the image caused by insufficient light, something my early work is very prone to. It does an amazing job of cleaning up the picture. Sound was compressed and tweaked to optimize it for voice, and the image was sharpened by about 4% (it makes more difference than you might think); all recordings prior to 2016 went to tape which tends to soften the picture a little too much, especially after noise filtering.
The end result looks great. I shall perform the same routine on another Star movie from the time, called Traffickers, but I will leave that for a few weeks. The rendering and exporting process for these videos is long; this one required a total of 8 hours on my 3.5 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i5 processors. Alas, I need something way more powerful these days, especially if I want to start handling 4K videos on a regular basis.

Re: Star Nine
Well, it seems that I already remastered Traffickers. My mind is going. I can feel it. I can feel it.
Re: Star Nine
I am with you on that point. I walk into the bathroom, forget I needed to take a whizz, walk out, and then remember that I need to take a whizz.davidnorth wrote: ↑Tue Nov 24, 2020 1:30 pmWell, it seems that I already remastered Traffickers. My mind is going. I can feel it. I can feel it.
Re: Star Nine
I suspect many of us can relate to these old men going on about their ailments...
On the other hand, we never lose sight of Star's hotness, do we?

You have us there. No, looking at her and the other models, one cannot forget about their cute sexiness. Makes us say 'To Hell with our ailments. I am watching this video, anyways!"
