Hey all,
More questions about some small technical issues before finalizing my project.
1. Noticed when viewing on a flatscreen TV yesterday that whenever I cut to black in the short, or even when my titling fades to another name, the TV was dropping the black levels to COMPLETE BLACK. It seemed it was fading in and out as text would reappear on screen, or the image would come back.
This is strange because it doesn't happen on my laptop, so I'm thinking it's a TV setting. BUT I think I've noticed this before, and I had to add a black slug or transparent video in Premiere (or Resolve) to avoid that fade to complete black that seemed to be happening.
I wasn't sure if this was a TV setting doing this, or if in editing and films you have to put something there (black slug or transparent video, etc.) to trick the viewing devices that there is something there? Has anyone else dealt with this?
I'm going to experiment a bit and see what happens. What is strange though is my entire credit sequence was built in After Effects, and the names that fade in and out aren't separated by black empty tracks and it's still happening. It's not on an alpha layer either, it's over black.
Anyway, hopefully this made sense, TYPING FAST!
Thanks in advance.
