@matt_gh2 - it's due to shooting anamorphic. I don't really want to squish it vertically so I chose to extrapolate it horizontally. Holds up really nicely. The 1.8 squeeze of my morph multiplied by the sensor aspect of 1.78 gives me about 3.2:1 so a final horizontal resolution of 3456. The vertical remaining 1080p. With this res, youtube allows an "Original" option. Less compression. I assume you could upscale regular GH2 to 1.5k, maybe even 2k and get the original option as well.

The skin tones in homework time are green.... like... sickly green. I'd fix that. And the color just seems inconsistant. Like you just went crazy with presets... there's no through line to it. Just my opinion.

Looks good. Exporting to 3.5k resolution? Had heard some people talking about doing that for YouTube. Is that taking 1080P footage from GH2 and then upping the resolution? Curious if there are benefits as well as basic process.

Hey shian, quick question and sorry if this has been answered before. How do you use a grey card if your using a manual only lense on a gh2. It seems that for a grey card to be utilized correctly it needs to be adjusted for by the automatic exposure first then carried over to manual. But manual lenses do not have auto exposure available on gh2. Sorry if I skipped something somewhere.

Quick grade in AE because DaVinci doesn't like my 3.5k stuff. Still so killer.

Sorry if wrong topic, didn't find any "general" after effects topic.

When I import GH2 .MTS files to After Effects and place them to composition, AE cannot play them live. It's like it starts rendering them after pressing play-button. Why? I haven't added any effects / layers. Just set composition to 32bit mode.

My computer is pretty powerful and in Sony Vegas everything runs smooth and nice.

I have a barebones working version of the Davinci Resolve version prepping for January release. Once that's out of the way, a version for Premiere, and then back to making tons of tutorials.

If you have any pages on the ColorGHear site bookmarked or fed into your RSS reader, recheck the link. I changed the addresses of a quite a few things last night to make it easier to track internally.

Thank you @Shian for all of your work and making life easy!
