Hi, i don’t know if i understood correctly.

These are simple color blocks & text created in AE (so would it even possible to be above 1 ?)
Color (R/G& B) close to 0. Alpha 0,8.
So bluish black blocks with transparency 80 + white text on the block (1/1/1).

Good thing to know, that the working space has to be set to linear in AE at the start of the project if it has to be rendered for FCP X !

Thanks a lot !

OK, that’s it 🙂 this checkbox “linearize the profile” changes the aspect of the colors of the blocks in After Effect (so i’ll have to adapt my comp.) BUT when rendered rgb+alpha and imported in FCP, it is almost same colors then in AE. So problem solved i guess 🙂 Thanks !

ps. floating point is 32. And blending mode is set to “normal” now (since Michael told me FCP didn’t manage blending mode when rendered).

hello,

the settings I mentioned are the settings in AE.
(and I couldn’t find the settings in FCPX the way it used to be in FCP7 (i searched for it but i have no clue, and didn’t find on the web 🙁

What do you mean by “linearizing the working space” ?

Both straight and multiply alpha give wrong results (straight is a little better though).
And sRGB all the way (from illustrator to AE).
Except, i couldn’t find the color profile in FCPX (hate this version / but don’t know it well).

Thank you, Michael, i didn’t know that.
Unfortunately, that’s not it.
I just made a test, all blocks in “normal” mode and it’s the same problem.
The blocks that have transparency have “washed out” colors in FCPX…
I’ll upload a screen shot of each, one is the view when it’s in AE, the other when the title is imported in FCPX.

Thanks
