  • Shadow/highlight – is Colourista2 good replacement?

    Posted by Al James on January 17, 2015 at 2:48 am

    I’m aware of the flickering bug within the premiere cc ‘shadow/highlight’ effect. Am I right in saying the shadow and highlight recovery feature at the side of the three colour wheels of Reg Giants Colourista2 provides exactly the same function?

    I found this link that I am guessing describes what you feel is the bug:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9tuRHdSOe8

    However, that was published in July of 2014 and I just tried it on Premiere Pro 8.2 (latest version) with a long clip and cannot find any discoloration or distortion though I am going through the clip frame by frame. Why don’t you update to the latest and let us know if you encounter it again.

    Hi Dennis, thanks for getting back to me.

    I am using the very latest update from cloud, 8.2.0 (65) build. And the problem very much still exits. https://youtu.be/dPBPZ9x4wIY

    It’s quite annoying as the effect appeal is superb, just when you play the footage it’s awful. flickers like cray on some shots.

    Is there an alternative effect out there that I can buy that will do same job as shadow/highlight?

    Thanks for the video. I’ve forwarded your note over to the QE team to take a look. Lets see what they say.

    I’ve produced a post comparing various shadow/highlight methods and alternatives:

    Summary: Adobe please, please fix this, there isn’t a direct alternative, even from 3rd-party vendors.
