  • Suitable input codec for higher bit depths

    Posted by Jens Theisen on April 7, 2016 at 12:58 am

    I’m wondering what my options are for video codecs supported by After Effects as input formats for content that needs a color depth higher than 8bit.

    Do I need to import an image series or is there a better way?

    ProRes and DnxHD are 10bits but I think that if you to go beyond 10bits image sequences are the most common way to go… I’m aware of a cineform 16bits 444 but I never used it…
