[HOAX] Isaac CARET - Drones [HOAX]

I'm a cgi artist, and after having looked closely at the photography of "Isaac's" alien artifacts (pacl-q486-photo-4-fullsize.jpg), there is no evidence of digital rendering. That is, there are no pixels representing antialiasing on the geometric edges of the objects depicted.

Even by utilizing blur (Gaussian and grain) filters to mimic photographic imagery, the falloff from the object edges is completely different for digital synthetic rendering than what is seen in these photos.

Also note the slight luminous ringing, or halo, of background that surrounds the edge delineation of the objects photographed. This effect is from optical iris compensation for contrast thresholds (i.e. dark edges against a very light background). This effect is not easily achievable in PhotoShop or some other digital graphic manipulation application. It is exclusively seen in either optical or electronic (TV) displays. That is another way of saying that the photography is analog rather than digital. These objects were photographed with a traditional, SLR-type film camera.

The time setting was determined not by the EXIF data, read 1111's post, it was determined from the sun angle and the geographic location of the picture origin.
That was the whole point of the alt/azimuth calcs...

But you bring a good point I think, that is the angle w.r.t level of the drone. This I believe can also be determined, we know the suns location, the time of day and the angles it makes from the shadow of a level object. The angle of the craft can then be determined from this information, from how the shadows fall onto the craft longitudinally.

spf33 what software is that your're using.?

Is it best guess, or is it known with an uncertainty factor or what?

We know its higher than the telephone pole.......

...it still doesn't matter, the Sun is STILL higher than the drone, meaning the arm should cast a shadow right on the body.

That's a very good point as well. However, assuming that this craft works on anti-gravity like it is claimed to by Isaac, why would it need to be pitched in any direction? It's not like there would be any downforce motion of air to propel it like a helicopter. And it wouldn't need to be pitched at any angle to move on XYZ axes.

It doesnt matter the angle, or the height, or the position of the Sun. All of my calculations were 98% accurate about the time and day, but that is all to prove the Sun is higher than the "drone". The only time the Sun would be lower then the "drone" is if it was later at night, the image would be darker. None of that matters anyway, because the fact still stands and the model in the image is missing a shadow....




You can't have a shadow under the arm, without casting a shadow onto the body... PERIOD.

The luminous ringing is correct, and that would be from an SLR. But it makes no difference if it is digital or film, because the lens and optics are all the same. The only difference in a digital camera is the CCD board instead of the film. The type of camera and the time it was taken were all present in the EXIF data, a Minolta DiMAGE X, which I believe is an SLR camera.

Good for you, don't bother posting anymore then unless you are going to add something to the discussion.

Personally I don't care what this guy says. If he has done some work such as spf then give me a link to it and I'll look at it and make a decision based on that.

I think it's fairly clear that a certain set of pictures of the drone are fake. Doesn't matter, it only takes one to be real.

Also for those that have said it's a hoax because they have predicted the next picture or sequence of events or that this conforms to some standard pattern of hoaxing you are probably right to a degree. The fake pics do fall into that pattern but take those out and the sequence of events is slightly different.

None of the eyewitness accounts mention an appendage hanging below the central ring, nor is anything shown by Isaac to that effect.

Maybe this is more understandable?




By the way, there are EXIF EDITORS avalible on the internet. Simple easy click ones...


You would think if a graphics artist was trying to hoax people, he would have thought of an EXIF EDITOR.

Err the Minolta Dimage X is a digital camera as far as I can tell. See here: www.imaging-resource.com...

Ok king i shall do as im told wouldnt want you to spank me now...

Anyway You carry on believing because you want to and you won't accept a fact even if it came over and twatted you on the chin. Your so gullable, i feel sorry for you!

Show me a fact then.

Firstly the ring you talk about is not in the same plane as the arm, so no, the light wouldn't neccessarily be as you say. The ring has a chamfered or rounded edge, the arm is flat.

Secondly, if a graphics artist can think of an EXIF EDITOR, conversely shouldn't they also have got the lighting spot on and then we wouldn't have to waste all this time.

Yes, they make SLR digital cameras and have for a long time now. Sorry if you didn't understand that from my post, but obviously it would be a digital camera if it has EXIF data.

just a shadow comparison pic:



as you can clearly see, even at a slight tilt, the light directly hits small parts of the belly sticking out while the shadow remains right at the edge....the wings on the drone are so flat, I don't see them making much of a shadow, especially considering the sun appears to be towards the side and the drone is at an angle.

OK, lets kill this once and for all..

I found pictures taken from a REAL Minolta Dimage X camera, from this website...

www.imaging-resource.com...

.... I then looked at the EXIF data from that image, and compared it to the CGI Drone EXIF data. What do you know, it appears the Drone EXIF data has been edited, it also shows the photo has been through several programs.

Wow, look at the difference.. Hey why is the CGI Drone EXIF so short??

Speaking about photos, have you noticed that most of the scratches and dirt on the photographs are visible in the "original" documents?

I didn't even bother to line them up properly, but they're there. You can see them better by putting them in different layers and turning them on/off.

Should I continue to shred this hoax apart?

GJ Farnswoth! So what conclusion do you come to with that info?

[edit on 30-6-2007 by 11 11]

Is it just me or does this drone caret hoax smell just like the john titor hoax? Their presentation are very similar, both having similar looking ultra top secret government manuals....

I tossed up a page comparing the two based on the manual art-alone here is my comparison:

spacetimenews.com...

I will look more into it, possibly someone is just copying the Titor crew's style of hoaxing. Also have any of the other eye-witnesses from seperate origins been authenticated, anyone can spoof an email and claim they are in China or California or wherever.

I'm re-designing my old site and starting from scratch it will be updated and re-finished within the next few months...

Okay. So the time is based on the assumption the date is correct, and that the reference pole is perfectly vertical and the crosspiece perfectly horizontal.

Assuming the object is real, based on the same time of day, the angles of the shadows from the object onto itself would be able to determine the pitch and yaw.
