Colour Correcting
15min DV short film,
2x 23inch Apple LCD's and a Samsung HD LCD TV (calibrated via FCP Manuel instructions and bars) connected to a deck via component.
3way CC,
To start with I'm crushing the blacks, mids and white on most shots indoor and outdoor to make them look good on the preview LCD though on the apple screens the clips look darker.
I'm having to bring the white down as much as the blacks as the highlights on the preview seem to be blowing out compared to the apple LCD. though on the RGB parade it's say i have room to bring my whites up
Am I going to dark here?
Should I trust the Samsung TV or the scopes in FCP?
I know this can be a touchy subject but feel free to respond with what you know about this kind of set-up!
