Best Premiere Exporting Settings / Workflow for Youtube Delivery
Hello,
Just trying to refine my workflow for future projects when coming out of premiere for delivery (youtube primarily). If anyone has any input for retaining maximum quality / all colour grade / gamma without any shifts / so I can get a proper youtube version down the track. Steps 5 & 7 are the ones which would be most helpful to give your opinion. Sometimes I’ve had the issue of colour shifting or colour banding or brightness darkening depending on my Premiere Export settings which I still am yet to master.
1. SHOOT RED EPIC
2. EDIT LOW RES IN PREMIERE CS6
3. XML FOR DAVINCI GRADE
4. GRADED IN DAVINCI (not by me)
5. EXPORTED SHOTS FROM DAVINCI AS …. DPX? TIFF? ProResHQ?
6. RECONFORM IN PREMIERE PRO CS6
7. EXPORT SETTINGS BEST FOR YOUTUBE!?!?!?
YOUTUBE UPLOADThanks

That’s a very high end workflow for YouTube.
As for #7…Media Encoder has YouTube export presets.

If your banding persists, usually in darker areas, in the codec and container conversion from prores to h264, you can tick use maximum render quality in export settings to avoid that issue. Dpx is nice but very large, you should be able to export prores from davinci just fine without those issues.

Thank you all so far. I guess the problem with ProRes is sometimes it can do gamma shift. Hence why I’m exploring the idea of a TIFF or image sequence at a higher bit depth – therefore can leave my down converting to the absolute last stage.

Well I’m doing music videos so youtube is the main delivery. However I would also like a master HD version for filing.
