Smooth, High Definition Video of Curiosity's Landing On Mars

Posted by Soulskill on from the pretty-pictures dept.

_0x783czar writes "Filmmaker Brad Canning has released a hi-def video of Curiosity's landing. This video was captured in low res, and then extrapolated and re-rendered by Canning to produce some of the most stunning imagery ever captured on an alien world. It took Canning over a month to complete the process. He used motion tracking to add sound effects which in turn give you the sensation of the ride of your life."

    Are the bizarre color shifts and weird smoothing/warping for a few frames in some places a result of the extrapolation process?
