Asset Overview

This one was another experiment in extracting models from youtube drone footage, extracting frames on the half-second. As with the [windmill scan](https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/halnaker-windmill-sussex-3d30e185f0604a6f96f6f55d9572d07a), these ones are really hit and miss. It takes a lot of searching to find videos that have the ideal qualities for model generation - 4k video, arcing shots from every angle, slow enough speed to avoid blur, overcast day to avoid hard shadows, etc. Even some that come pretty close to ideal can still have missing areas. Theres a YT extracted scan of Osaka Castle I'm working on right now that was almost perfect.. but somehow can't fully resolve one of the sides. Surprisingly, watermarks and black bars don't cause major problems, though crossfades and other transitions can produce some bad frames.
