  • color shift on freeze frame

    Posted by Terry on June 22, 2005 at 8:37 pm

    I am creating a freeze frame from the end of a clip but when edited back into the sequence the freeze has a color shift… The original clip has a couple of filters applied (gamma, flicker). I’ve tried highlighting the clip in the timeline and placing the playhead on the frame to be frozen and clicking on the canvas sequence window – same thing. Applying the same filtration after the fact of course doubles the filtration effect. I’m in 8 but uncompressed using AJA io.

    I think I’d start by checking another clip… does it do it always or only on this one?

    It does it on every clip – sometimes very obviously – sometimes not. I was able to get around it by matching the frame with the original source clip, freezing it, then applying attributes from my sequence clip. Now, what I discovered after the fact was that the sequence setting was in RGB render mode — I re-rendered it in YUV high and will now see what happens when I try the freeze.

    Even after the re-render in high yuv — still doing it… The only way around it is to match the source file frame, freeze it and apply attributes from the sequenced clip. This is very strange – I’ve never come across this before.
