I've just had a feature graded by a CSI professional in Baselight on a calibrated $45,000 Dolby monitor. Looks gorgeous in the room. We got a ProRes4444 output, I immediately opened this output in Encore and burned a Blu ray. But on my top-of the-line Samsung plasma it looks washed out and much brighter in the gamma.
Now, I've been around the block a few times, and I know better than to expect things to ever look the same once out of the color grading suite, but this is ridiculous.
The colorist says his Dolby monitor is set to a 2.4 gamma, and that this is standard. As far as I can tell, the color space of the ProRes4444 is Rec709. I made no adjustments or tweaks of any kind in Encore. So my question is… is it me? Is there something I'm doing wrong in the authoring of the Blu ray? Or is there something I should be asking the colorist to do on his end? The show is being finaled out to DPX for eventual DCP, etc. The ProRes4444 was a courtesy output for us to do a check on.
Can anyone think of what might be going on here?
Signed, Frustrated and Dismayed
