    Soon you may be able to try using this new effect in After Effects for upscaling – Detail-preserving Upscale

    What’s your weapon of choice… FCP7, FCPX, Premiere, Avid, Smoke, Edius, Vegas? Jump over and help gather some data.

  • Ok, I was wrong, I just worked out that changing Ae to 32bpc did actually stop the intial clipping! BUT strangely, when I apply a colour correction effect (e.g. RGB curves) to the linked Ae clip in Pr… it immediately clips the luma back down to 1.0 beofre I’ve touched the actual parameters?? Ah so close…

  • That’s correct, I’m looking for color correction effects that translate from Premiere to Ae… to match the exact colour correction between applications…

    Walter, changing the project to 32bpc didn’t fix it, do you have to create the project in 32bpc to begin with?

  • Ah thanks Walter… I love simple solutions, don’t know why I didn’t try that in the first place!

    [Walter Soyka] “I’m not sure I understand what you’re asking here. Don’t you want all the color correction to be in the same place (i.e., either Ae or Pr)?”

    I didn’t explain it very clearly… I am doing all the correction in Pr but within the sequence parts of clips are dynamic linked into After Effects for some VFX overlays… there is multiple blend modes applied to the layers above the clip in Ae, so that part of the clip must stay within Ae for the effect to work… What I was trying to work out is how to perfectly match the colour correction of the clip in both Pr and Ae… I thought perhaps there was an interchangeable colour correction preset or effect that I could apply to clips in both Pr and Ae… Doesn’t matter now though, I decided to apply all the colour correction in Pr even though it changes the vfx overlay colours slightly. Sorry if that is still confusing.

    Thanks again for your help!

    Ah ok, perhaps you could experiment with exporting the audio to a different format then see if the problem remains. Hope you get it sorted.

    One alternative you could try is to use the Distort>Twirl effect… have the text travel along the path then animate the twirl at the appropriate time.

    I’m not sure about the render options, but I would suggest trying to fix it by taking your audio over to Audition (Edit>Edit in Adobe Audition>Entire Sequence) and seeing if that can solve it. I generally do all audio EQ’ing after picture lock in Audition, many many more tools than Premier.

  • I’ll second that Synthetic Aperture is an amazing tool, using ‘limiting’ has saved me endless amounts of time in all grading and broadcast related work.

    Hey Mike,

    Thanks for the feedback, I’m currently working on a plan for the site content/blog that I’m looking to start producing and including, if you have any ideas or preferences of what you would like to see, let me know!

    One idea I’m working on is to create a post-production software ‘map’… presenting a clear overview and description of each major software that is used in post, as I’ve found a lot of people aren’t aware of what else is out there… or would love to know what programs such as Nuke, Autodesk Smoke are, and where they fit in the pipeline of post production… I’m still working on this idea though.

    So at this early stage it is only the survey, which will hopefully become a useful tool in its own right (if I can get enough data collected). The power of the survey is really in the filters on the results page.

    Will see how it all goes, it definitely is a new but exciting endeavour.

    Cheers
    Daniel

    I don’t think you’re missing anything, I had major headaches working with .mts footage in the past too… though CS6 and CC seem heaps better at handling .MTS footage now….

    I know you said you don’t want to shell out the $50, but I was in the same situation and Clipwrap (https://www.divergentmedia.com/clipwrap) has been more than worth the $50. You can also seamlessly join clips together, optimised for PrPro.

    But if you want to try something else first there is a few free options listed here also… https://sites.google.com/site/karstenschluter/mts-to-mov
    Remux worked for ok for me for a few projects but Clipwrap is better.

    Hope that helps.
