RE: ProRes 422 (Atomos Ninja)

Full color range for 10 bit log footage, of which ProRes shot in CLog is. I recommend editing in 8 bit (it's faster) then switching to 32 bit full to color. Make sure to set the color space of your media to CLOG in the media properties.

RE: VP22 vs VP23 rendering speed, VP23 ½ slower than VP22...?

Do the colors match? @Adis-a Interesting question I didn't consider testing. I just did a visual check using MPC Black and the two renders look identical. I then pulled them both into 21.208. They look nearly identical on the waveform and

RE: Export without losing quality

I don't think it's the combination LUT filter + color curves. The problem only occurs for me with the 'classic' color curves animation (without LUT filter)

RE: Approximating Monochrome Footage to Color Ones..?

@Dexcon - Thanks, that brings some clarity. I suppose one example of this when the more "noir" type films tend to veer towards cooler blues and greens in the overall look. To match the emotional ethos - it's not a happy-go-lucky Disney look. 😎I use
