Activity Forums DaVinci Resolve Color space issue at render

  • Color space issue at render

    Posted by Nicolas Chausson on November 25, 2017 at 5:16 pm

    Hi,

    I color graded a video on resolve and rendered it in ProRes 422 HQ. The video graded on Resolve looks like this:

    Now I want to put it on After Effects but when I import it that looks different, like this :

    The video rendered on Resolve looks good on QuickTime, it’s only when I import it on After Effects that changes something as you can see.

    I think it’s about a color space configuration on After, I try to change it but i can’t find exactly the look I had on Resolve.

    First, do you know if it’s really a color space issue? In that case how could I know the color space used on Resolve to make it match on After Effects?

    Excuse my english, I’m french.

    Thanks!

    Try a test out of resolve, using 1 version at video levels in your deliver settings, and another using data levels in your delivery settings. After effects is probably assuming the wrong setting, and if it is like Premiere, I don’t think you can change how it is interpreting the footage. This way you can figure out who it is interpreting it.

    I presume the images are screen captures off the same monitor. Do you have a way to compare the renders on a proper monitor via a Decklink device. If you simply render out of AE and bring back into Resolve is the gamma shift still there. Part of the problem looking at gamma shifts is how programs display to the computer monitor.

    Resolve or AE might both be poor at displaying the proper gamma. OS settings can also make a difference. So many variables, that you need to have a solid single reference outside of each program to see what is or isn’t happening.
