  • 32 bpc output issue

    Posted by Frank Conjerti on January 20, 2010 at 7:26 pm

    Hi,
    I’m using the Glow effect in 32 bpc on a piece of footage in SD. I’ve looked around and the only file format I can export to in order to keep the 32 bpc effect is Photoshop image sequence. Just curious as to how I can take that into Final Cut or is there another way to export a 32 bpc project?

    Thanks in advance,
    Frank Conjerti

    Very, very few output formats preserve all 32 bits per channel. OpenEXR is one.

    Just to be clear, though, you don’t need to output to 32bpc to get the advantages of working with 32bpc color within After Effects. I don’t know Final Cut Pro well, but I’d be surprised if there was any reason to try to get all 32 bits per channel from After Effects into FCP.

    Ok, I guess my issue is that I’m losing the look of the Glow effect in 32bpc when I render.
