Hey All,
Here's my problem.
Have a grade done already in Davinci Resolve. Getting DPX files back from my VFX artist to place back in Resolve and apply the final grade. All is working fine. (So in resolve I have a mix of r3d files and dpx files.)
But, since I'm operating Resolve Lite there is no noise removal. So I want to use Neat Video which I have for After Effects NOT Resolve. (don't have the cash at this point to purchase a license for Resolve as well)
So to do that I'm taking the dpx files that have vfx applied and bringing them into AE. I apply the noise removal, looks fine, then export the dpx file again. I bring back into Resolve and apply the grade and compare it and it's not the same.
It's slightly warmer than it's supposed to be and doesn't match. Now I know it's my fault coming out of AE because I can take the completed dpx file from vfx artist and bring into Resolve, apply the grade and it matches perfectly. So I know it's something I'm doing regarding color management in AE.
I've tried most things (that I know of - and that's not much in regards to color profiles, management, etc.) so I know I'm missing something.
Exposure and all seems to be just fine, it's just the color temperature that's not right.
Any ideas or info about how I should be exporting the dpx file to keep it EXACTLY THE SAME as before would be great.
Neat Video wouldn't warm something up like this would it?
Thanks everyone.
