BMD and After Effects
When I’m working on some color correction in After Effects, and I’m done. Isn’t there any way else to send to SDI than to create a BlackMagic file? I hate the DeckLink Software, I just get in trouble. After 4 minutes of picture the video stops (sound still rolling) Any ideas? It doesn’t matter which file it is…its on everything.
Anyways- 8Bit VS 10Bit? When I do projects on DigiBETA, editing on Avid Media Composer – Am i using 8 or 10 bit?
I’m not an expert on Color correction, so it might just be that, but I’ve done 6 minutes of CC and exported to a BMD-file for SDI-output. Then I crash the signal into Avid MC.
When recording it looks okay, but on playback later, it looks compressed. I don’t know any settings in Avid (or BMD/AE?) that can concern this. Ideas?

Digibeta decks are 10-bit.
Can you not simply render a 10-bit file out of ae and import it into avid or fcp?
thats what I do.

We have older mac based Media Composers which are 8bit. I don’t know about newer ones.
We usually render out of AE 10bit BM, then play the footage from the FCP timeline and capture live video into the MC 1:1. If we need timecode we lay off from FCP to Digibeta. This is usally for offline only, then we finish in smoke.
