Subject: Re: [Avid-L2] Color Correction Gamma Points, and Blu Rays
Man, I wish I was the expert. With so many competing formats and delivery specs and output options, it's a wonder anything ever gets done. It's maddening sometimes. No, actually it's maddening all the time.

Huh. I kinda think of you as the expert here… so I suppose you already thought of that. Now I'm dismayed, too! ;-)

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.

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.
