Sorry if I am late to this thread, but I have a question that fits in quite well. And I would be very thankful if someone could help me clarify this (all related to AE):
Summary from above:
1. Always work in a managed environment, i.e. have CM activated (project settings)
2. Work with a calibrated monitor
Now come my questions:
Setting: I have a Dell U2709 monitor, a Spyder 3 Elite, Windows 7.
I do video work generally in HDTV and web video.
a) the monitor itself offers different color modes (sRGB, Adobe RGB, custom RGB, …). Which one should I activate before/when calibrating the monitor with the Spyder?
b) the monitor should stay in this mode for all subsequent work, or is there a possible situaton when I should switch modes?
c) after the calibration, in AE > project settings > working space the profile list offers now also my saved monitor profile (from the Spyder software) in addition to the default ones. Should I choose that profile, or one of AE’s own? (and which one)
It would be very kind and helpful to clarify this for me.
Best wishes,
Andreas
