    Posted by John Landry on September 28, 2005 at 3:45 pm

    I use photoshop cs2 mainly for photos that I use in my video editing software. I was told not to color manage the photos, so I have CS2 set to Off in color management. Everything has worked okay till I got a Epson 1800 printer. So my question is what should I use for a working space that I can use for video and also print a photo that matches my monitor. I should also add that I calibrate my monitor using Spyder Pro. Any help would I would be greatfull.

    Turn color magement off whn doing video grtaphics

    No all in one solution

    This maybe a dumb question but I am going to ask and also try it out myself. If I used Adobe RGB 1998 as my profile then the pictures that I am going to use in my video, could I just make a copy and convert it to NTSC profile, and presto everything looks great!!

    I have one that says NTSC 1953 and another that saya Epson NTSC 1953 also found another on the net NTSC RGB 1953. I played around with them and was able to get good results, checking it with the cs2 video out. I am going to burn a disk with the three profiles and check the results on some different T.V.s. Was thinking of maybe picking up a NTSC monitor down the road.

    I repeat… there is no such thing as color management and video… those are approximations and they are worthless

    My goal is to use CM for everything but video, but if you take a taged file and display it on a T.V. it looks like crap. I understand that it is only a approximation, if you display it on 10 T.V.’s you are going to get ten different results. My goal is to find the middle road as far as video goes.
