Krita use in VFX

[Moritz Moeller]

Hello,

I'm a TD working in the feature film visual effects industry.
Currently, most places in this industry which are Linux-based (the 
majority of the bigger places) use either Shake (or another compositing 
app with a paint module) or Cinepaint if they want to modify 32bit float 
images on that OS.

I'd like to see more use of Krita, of course! :)
The fact that Krita has built-in colour management is a big plus for 
starters. Although I couldn't find any docs on how to add custom 
profiles. Custom profiles are an absolute must in my industry since we 
often have a show-specific profile that matches the stock the film was 
shot on or a particular target profile the monitors in a a facility have 
been calibrated for.

The next good thing is OpenEXR support. However, Krita strips comments 
embedded into EXR file when saving them again. Thereby breaking most 
high-end VFX pipelines that depend on such metadata to be available 
throughout the process to identify where an image came from, who worked 
on it and what its purpose was and whatnot.

Lastly I found that certain very common TIFF flavours (common in my 
industry) make Krita crash when one tries to open them.

So I guess my question is: where can I log feature requests and report 
bugs? On this list or is there a better place?


Cheers,

Moritz
