I would really like to use this but I don’t see a eye dropper tool

Love it!

I'm one of those "practical over digital" people, and the comments on here are clearly pro-CGI so it's a bit of an echo chamber here, but I'm going to explain to you from my perspective why I hate CGI and everything digital in modern movies. I don't watch movies made past 1997 anymore. A lot on here would act outraged by that, but I would like to compare them to the types of people who would enjoy a 480p DVD movie over a 1080p blu-ray. I used to not know the difference between the quality of the two when I was a child, but then I got to know the difference and I could never go back to DVDs. But a lot of people don't notice a difference and those people are probably the same types posting on this video acting all mind-blown over the fact that "good CGI is invisible." It's not invisible to me. Yes, I noticed the sidewalk was CGI. Just because most people don't pay attention to minute details doesn't mean it can't impact my enjovability of the film. I will concede that the acting and the directing can be good, but I won't ever enjoy modern movies. There is a visible difference between movies shot on film and those shot with digital cameras. The latter just looks worse in every way. I notice the "color correction" and it looks horrible compared to movies made in the early 90s and prior when that wasn't the case. I notice the color coding in modern movies and they are frankly an eyesore. Even those that are "subtle." It just doesn't look good and never will. I also hate modern animation compared to hand-drawn. And I mean real hand-drawn drawn on paper and coloured by hand, not the fake "hand-drawn" animation today drawn digitally and inked digitally on a computer. The quality just doesn't match the raw and genuine quality that real manually produced art has. And I am tired of being guilt-tripped into thinking I'm wrong for this opinion because people like you feel like you might end up unemployed. You won't. Mainstream movies will be CGI for a long time and that won't change. But a lot of people stopped watching mainstream movies and go for low-budget movies that purposefully avoid anything digital because they know how bad it looks. And the big studios noticed that and are trying to market films as CGI-free to appeal to that demographic while blatantly lying to their faces. CGI is lazy. It took years to create a masterpiece like Wizard of Oz and it shows. Nearly a century later and children born today still grow up with that film. Do you honestly believe any CGI movie ever will be looked at with the same level of awe that many years later? It won't. Sure, people can mention a plethora of films they enjoyed with CGI, but the fact of the matter is those movies would have been even better if they were made practically instead of digitally. The point isn't to mention films that you thought were good, the point is those movies would have been even better if the director wasn't lazy to go for digital instead of practical. I can't believe people actually watch modern digitally coloured, colour-coded, digitally shot CGI-fest movies made today. They won't ever be as good as what used to be made back in the day. And that's a fact. Enjoy your computer garbage, but the fact that you might very soon end up unemployed because Al will do the exact same work you do in a couple of years is proof that the stuff you make won't ever compete with the stuff legends used to make in the past. Just compare Scorsese with Scorsese. His best movies were made in the 80s before he resorted to CGI and cutting corners with digital solutions in his modern movies. The Irishman and Hugo are garbage (again, the stories are irrelevant, I'm solely talking from a visual perspective compared to a visual masterpiece like The Last Temptation of Christ or Raging Bull in his earlier career. You must wonder why none of his modern films are as good as his earlier ones. It's because all of these directors (including Herzog, Polanski, Woody Allen, Ridley Scott etc) all became lazy once they realised they could achieve what they wanted using digital methods than the costlier but more rewarding practical methods. 177/ / You won't convince those who hate CGI to suddenly like it. We don't just hate CGI. We hate everything digital. Including digital cameras, digital color correction, digital color coding, and so on. And that won't change. REPLY
