Talk:Color temperature
|
|
Right now this article mainly discusses the practical application of color temperature in cinematography -- we need information on the physics of it...
Agreed. But I don't know anything about the physics of it. --Koyaanis Qatsi
Nice work anyway KQ! I really enjoyed reading it (OK, it does need the techie stuff though) - MMGB
yeh. and the prose needs a little work. but i'm off to bed now. :-) thanks, though. much appreciated. --Koyaanis Qatsi
Added more physics-oriented discussion, made distinction between colour temperature and white balance. -- The Anome
Hehe - Article title "Color Temperature". First sentence "Colour temperature...". God I love this place. - MMGB
Yeh, it's great. Thanks, Anome, for adding the physics stuff. Sorry to use the term "loosely"; it's very common in the film & documentary industry. --Koyaanis Qatsi
Yep, I know -- The Anome
Cinematographers don't/can't "white balance" in the same way as video camera operators: they can use techniques such as filters, pre-flashing, and after shooting, color grading (both by exposure at the labs, and also digitally, where digital film processes are used). This needs to be incorporated into the article. -- Anon.
Yes, it does need to be integrated into it. I've worked with both film and video, and noticed that, but never noticed the lack of coverage in the article. However, I'm off to bed now, so I'm glad to see you've added it. Thanks. :-) Koyaanis Qatsi 07:20 17 Jun 2003 (UTC)
Mark Sweep created pure art work from your basic start. I tried to help a little too. I want color temp to link like this, but I'm gettng the wrong words incandescent or incandescance, should link to the section called Incandescent Bulbs but [ "Incandescent" / "Incandescent Bulbs" ]]doesn't give me back my original word.gimma quick lessson please.I want to do this to fluorescence too.[User:Dkroll2|Dkroll2]]--[[User:Dkroll2|]] 04:09, Dec 14, 2004 (UTC)
All you need to do is write this: [[Incandescent light bulb|incandescent]] he pipe character "|" is used to show different text in a wikilink. Put the article name before the pipe, and the desired text of the link after the pipe. It'll show up like this: incandescent. But please remember that we only need to link the first time each term is used. There's no need to go through articles linking every instance of the term "incandescent".

OOPS!//excuse me whilst I go fix a ton of stuff. DKroll2 OK you Color Temp guys got your physics, well some of it. Enough so It it didn't get too complex. I didnt agree about white balance and photography, since there are so many alternative applications, but at least you HAVE applications sections. AND I learned a bit mre about how white balance relates to color temp. thanks DKroll2
citations.
Question about citations.
I did 2 with success on those sections I wrote, but:
1: how many sections/paragraphs up from the citation is it valid? problem: I desire to find citations for my contributions, but not to some others, with whom I disagree, etc.
How do I limit my citations to my writings?
A thought: What if my writings are eventually rewritten, or even just editing incorrectly? The citation is invalid and is an insult to the cited author.
Hmmmm.--[[User:Dkroll2|]] 06:23, Dec 23, 2004 (UTC)
I fixed the link to Planck's Law, but I wondered if that shouldn't be Planck's_law_of_black_body_radiation? --Lemming 21:57, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- You're right. I fixed it. PAR 23:02, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
