  Default Footage too dark ONLY on premiere

  Posted by Rafael Lopes on September 16, 2006 at 9:37 am

  Hi,

  Lately I notice that whenever I’m color correcting HD footage it always looks way darker than the original footage. Actualy, I have a TV monitor hooked to the pc and the footage looks dark there too WHEN I’m editing on premiere. When I’m playing the footage straight from the camera or from the orginal captured file on media player classic the TV monitor displays the exact image that was originaly captured. Now get this. When I end color correcting the footage and I export it to whattever format I want to export and then I play it OUTSIDE PREMIERE it’s too milky because the only reference I have when I’m color correcting is the premiere monitor and the TV monitor. This is really weird. This is truly a pain in the ass because when I finish color correcting the footage looks perfect ON PREMIERE and ON THE TV MONITOR, but when I export an mpeg or a quicktime and play it back on the pc monitor and on the tv monitor it looks nothing like what I wanted.

  Any advice? Maybe there’s a way to mess with the brightness and contrast ONLY on premiere. Please, any help is apreciated.

  Here is what I’m talking about:

  The quicktime footage is very different from my origina footage after cc.
