newfoundmass Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Can you give us some info on your workflow? Are you working with log footage? What are your project settings? What export settings are you using? kaylee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kubrickian Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 There’s always a discrepancy between premiere renders and how Macs display them. The gamma will be lifted. It’s an apple / adobe disconnect. I don’t expect it ever to be fixed tbh kaylee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used Premier for years, got tired of paying the subscription fees, learned Davinci Resolve in 1 week, best decision I ever made. If you shoot LOG with a DR supported camera, DR's managed color is another real time saver; there's also tutorials that help you do the same things you do in Premier in DR; I used a few of those, a few of Blackmagic's training courses, especially on color grading and project setup, and within 1wk could do everything in Resolve that I used to do in Premier. No more endless subscription fees, no more weird render failures, no more crashing, no more forced updates leading to project instability, etc. etc. Rinad Amir and kaylee 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Patts Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Try applying this LUT to your footage on export, (it is in the export window settings in Premiere) Â https://we.tl/t-eHqZmP04NB Â It fixes the gamma problem. kaylee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the original footage HLG? The project doesn't look like it is (at least it doesn't mention it in the project settings.) Under "Basic Video Settings" hit more and see if you can change that. Also is there any reason you're using custom settings instead of one of the presets? kaylee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaylee Posted January 29, 2023 Author Share Posted January 29, 2023 thank you @newfoundmass, ive been busy but im trying to suss this out. this was a multicam shoot, i have to go thru all the data... ugh one of the offending clips, below, is not hlg, right? talk to me like im 4. would i see that here? im only seeing the 'hlg' on export, dunno why. been reading this https://community.adobe.com/t5/premiere-pro-discussions/faq-how-to-fix-saturated-over-exposed-hlg-hdr-clips-in-premiere-pro-v-22/td-p/12489252 but all the settings in my projects are set to rec 709 as that thread describes, so i dunno. still working on it, just wanted to say thanks! obviously a general color issue upon export as described in this thread is a problem, and just confuses the issue for me, having not used premiere in a while. anyway!!!! 😡😤  newfoundmass 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd try exporting using one of Premiere's default settings, because I think the custom one you're using is probably where the issue is! kaylee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
