Sony Vegas & Adobe After Effects
Hello,
Please excuse the question, but I am not familiar with after effects and would like to know if these two programs (vegas & adobe a.e.) compliment each other… I own Sony Vegas 5 and love it, I am upgrading to 6.
Thanks, E. Lopez

just beware when you go between the 2 apps that sony renders to 601 spec’s 16-235 rgb and AE defaults to 0-255rgb ..which means that 235 ( 100 ire) is clipping in Vegas .. and 255 ( 100 ire) is clipping in AE .. 255rgb would be 108ire in Vegas …

Great tip…Thanks Donatello.

Donatello:
Is there anyway to make one app consistent with the other app? How do you compensate for these differences?

That would explain the subtle contrast shift when I mix video rendered in AE with video that hasn’t been through it.

i don’t find a problem with rendered uncompressed clips out of Vegas used in AE … it’s the rendered uncompressed clips out of AE/combustion taken into vegas .. what i did was rendered uncompressed SMPTE color bars out of AE .. drop those into Vegas TL – then i apply CC to get the bars to read correctly in Vegas waveform scopes – i then save that setting as plug in chain and use it on all clips that were rendered in AE/premiere/combustion …
AE7 now has settings for 16-235 or 0-255 or 709 color space for hdv..

Is there an avaiable plugin or something to allow me to take an .aep after effects project file and import it into vegas?
or
is there a way to take unrendered edited after effects footage and put it into sony vegas?
