AE is Desaturating my RAW Image Sequence… why?
For some reason, when I import a CR2 RAW image sequence (timelapse) into AE, it looks fine in the Camera RAW dialog box, but as soon as I drop the footage into an AE comp, it is totally desaturated. Here are two screencaptures to give an idea of what I am talking about….

I must have some kind of color setting wrong or something? Anyone have any idea why this would be happening? I’ve tried this with about 5 RAW images sequences now, and each time, AE totally drains the color out of the images when I drop them into a comp, no matter how much I crank up the saturation in the Camera RAW phase.
Thanks so much.

Hi. I must admit to not being experienced in the import of RAW images but unless I’m misteaken this looks suspiciously like an issue I had with TIFF sequences rendered on different machines.
I can’t swear this will help but you should try adjusting the colour settings for the projects in File/ProjectsSettings. My guess is that RAW import would need something better than 8bit.

I think I figured it out! I had to set the Working Space in Project Settings to sRBG….. by default, it’s set to “None.”
Seems to be working now. 🙂
