  Render Quality Difference in Preview vs Export?

  Posted by James Carver on April 20, 2016 at 5:36 am

  In after effects I have a LUT on an adjustment layer that adds contrast and brightness to my footage and looks fine while i am working. However when i render using animation or phot jpg i’m getting a green tone on my footage for some reason.

  My view inside After Effects while I’m working.
  

  This is what all my renders look like from the same project.
  

  Does anyone know what could be causing this? My footage was shot RAW and doesn’t even look like that without the LUT.

  A bit more info would help. Are you using color management? What color depth is your project? Ar you rendering using QT?

  No problem! Yea I am using color management I have my color space set to ProPhoto RGB and I’m working with 16 bit. I rendered using QT on both scenarios using photo jpg asa codec and also animation as a codec and got the same result.
