  Tiff sequence export vs import

  Posted by Alisa Placas on October 24, 2008 at 6:25 pm

  I’ve outputted an HD tiff sequence and have some importing questions.

  The project color setting is HDTV (Rec. 709) 16-235
  The source files have the same HDTV color profile.
  The comp setting is HDTV 1080 29.97 square pixels.
  I outputted a tiff sequence with Upper Fields First.

  When the editor imports this into his Nitris HD system, what settings should he use on import?
  Upper field first, square pixels, corrrect?
  What about color space? The tiff output settings didn’t give me a choice between RGB and 601/709. Would it be 709 since that is what the project color setting is?

  That is what makes sense to me. However, I see that when I import one of the Tiffs into AE, it’s profile says sRGB IEC611966-2.1
  So, now I am unsure if that means the TIff codec set the color output to RGB.

  It also looks a bit strange when I reimport the sequence and interpret it as upper field first.

  Can anyone clarify?
  Thanks!
