Activity Forums Adobe After Effects Lower luminance coming from AE

  • Lower luminance coming from AE

    Posted by Adam Alphin on February 5, 2010 at 8:39 pm

    I notice that everything I render (as animation) out of AE looks slightly darker than the original footage did in FCP. I am working with XDCAM footage, sending it out of FCP as Pro Res 422 HQ. I have the AE project set to 16 bit color. I would think that anything I render out of AE should have the same overall luminance as the original footage. Is there a step I am not taking somewhere?

    Thanks,

    Adam
