Hi everyone,
do you know of any consultants, preferably in Canada, who design studio spaces?
thanks

Agreed, I used to modify and copy transitions a great deal in FCP. It seemed a natural fit for PP, ugh.

on that project no. I ended up doing a stylized pixelated background instead. Let me know if you do figure it out though. I must have been missing something.

good luck

Craig

tweaked as in, I did all the things you both said in all variations.

32 bit float, “best” in Motion render tab in FCP, both projects are 1920×1080 square. Prores in FCP. Even if I do a vignette on the colour in Motion it bands in FCP. I must be missing something.

Hi Andy,

both are 1920×1080, square pixel, filed order = none. prob just the frame window size difference.

I tweaked all settings, even to 32 bit float and it’s still a banded beast.

I think I’ll just have to vignette filter it instead as, it may be a lost cause.

I built the gradient using the gradient generator and then I tried it with only the colour gradient fill inside a rectangle and it seemed to handle it a bit better re: banding but still not as smooth as Motion native.

thanks to both

Craig

I did just come across this too from Shape a new product from them. It’s not shoulder mount but does enable both hands on the cam with more stability. Kinda like a pro tiffen steady stick :):
