Running synopsis.video on my sketches overnight - super curious to see what it finds

Super excited to see Synopsis out in the wild, and even more excited that what we’re working towards is becoming useful and fun to use!

This is *exactly* why we are building Synopsis out in the open, and have a section dedicated to bias. You can’t make opaque algorithms to control culture, who participates in creating & representing culture. Respectfully - this is exactly the wrong approach Cinelytic

Thanks for taking a look at our project!

New features coming up in Synopsis Inspector inline scrubbing within the collection view:

Hi friends - Synopsis Public Beta 2 is available via Sparkle auto update or via synopsis.video If you have any feedback - bug reports or feature requests, don’t hesitate to let us know! Happy analyzing!

Sneak peek: we’ve been quietly working on improving Synopsis - Rahul Somani has been making huge progress on our new location data set / model. These images are sorted against only shots at the same inferred *location* :

So, I just got Synopsis running natively on M1 Apple Silicon. We have the 16GB Mac mini. A 4 minute and 30 second 720p h.264 movie analyzed with a CoreML model, as well as some custom metal performance shaders: Cc Rahul Somani

Synopsis Rahul Somani All from the same external SSD Hackintosh w/ i9 10k 128GB Radeon VII: ~ 1:30s MacBook Pro w eGPU 580 : ~2:15s M1 Mac Mac mini: ~15s No. That is not a typo. Maybe theres a new case of unified memory bugs my threading code fails on but this output seems ok?

Really proud of the work Rahul Somani and I did for cinematic Synopsis analysis of HBO Max ’s content library on behalf for our friends at HUSH. The entire team worked really hard on this and it came out lovely. New & improved models powered: heyhush.com/work/hbo-max-t…

We put up an article detailing the insane amount of work done for HBO Max by HUSH and Special Circumstances (Rahul Somani and my company which doesn’t have yet have a twitter) If you’re curious about #ai / #ml and #film / #cinematography check It: special-circumstances.medium.com/hbo-max-the-or…

This wouldn’t have been possible without Synopsis - which has come a long way and is putting in some serious work these days.

Special thanks to our Industry Speakers! Joon-Young, Adobe Research Anastasis Germanidis, Runway Anton Marini Rahul Somani, Synopsis Fernando Amat, Netflix Research Xintao Wang, Tencent! Great insights coming from real-world applications! #iccv2021 ICCV2021

I really cant wait to run Synopsis on M1 Max and see how ridiculous it is.

Have a Panel UI for Synopsis analysis JSON parsing in After Effects now. This is a nice (albeit slow) environment to debug but also explore inference results. Really proud of the work Rahul Somani has been doing on improving our model. Note how the composition tracks focus A+.
