Making of the motion-flow interpolated Mars Curiosity descent video

My original video: http://youtu.be/Esj5juUzhpU
Comparison with the original footage and my version: http://youtu.be/pjeHZ9poew4
Fun 8-bit version: http://youtu.be/YBhwViFg0tk

This is a partial making-of video.
Ultra-resolution, smooth-motion, detail-enhanced, color-corrected, interpolated from the original 4 frames per second to 30 frames per second. This video plays real-time at the speed that Curiosity descended to the surface of Mars on August 6, 2012.

Share this video with your friends. It's mind-blowing that everyone on Earth has a chance to see this amazing footage from Mars :)

ENHANCE! ;) Nice work, really.

Are you a wizard?

NASA should definitely hire you.

I dont get why the mountain range detail - i presume - doesnt get much bigger as the craft approaches closer to the ground? And especially the features in the light brown landscape dont appear much larger during the whole decent? You dont get a feeling of the suface detail increasing as you would zooming in on say google earth? Is this because the surface detail is man made art rather than detail extracted from the actual pictures shot at 4 frames per second?

you should send a link to nasa's PR dept.. if that doesnt lead to some cool work then more fool them.

[SenorSchnitz]

what software did you use for the interpolation?

[ramaroodle]

Is the sound authentic or did you dub that in? Most excellent non-the less!

[philz]

yes, what about the sound please ?

[jean-françois herisson]

good job

[Martin Tourneur]

Outstanding! The sound adds to the exhilaration! I'm not sure people recognize the time and work that was invested in the making of this video (or, in this case 'making of'). It makes me want to space travel… lol

[fongalongalong]

Is the sound real?

[ralphrhernandez]

You have produced an outstanding video. I hope people understand the time and devotion required to produce this video.
