OFFICIAL A1 Custom Presets thread

Sorry I meant to say that I was using TRUECOLOR and testing youtubes new 1:2 player in Cinemascope 2.35:1 aspect ratio.
 
I have looked high and low but I cannot find the Preset Settings for Vision 7. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Hey thanks ya I usually dont ask for people to find me information but I googled to try and find the settings and even searched this thread but I guess it didnt bring it up or I missed it. I am using it for night club / bar shots. I will bring in some smaple footage when I get it available. Shooting for a youtube video.
 
Whenever I use Vision 7 it seems dim and dull... Thats why I use TRUECOLOR now. I might use panavision/2/3 for future videos
 
Here's a example of a preset I made and have used pretty consistently on the last few projects I have done:

was also used on this one:

http://vimeo.com/6681928

but BLK was set to STRETCH. The H.264 codec tends to wash out the video a bit, but the raw preset should have more contrast than this.

If anyone is interested in using it...

I modded the Vision8 in order to give best color rendering in low light and less greenish skins

this preset offers maximum color fidelty, pleasant contrast, good color in low light and photographic color temperature reactivity

Tweaking Presets

You guys are confusing me. WHen you "tweak" a preset, aren't you creating another preset?

Does anyone have the latest listing of presets all in one place?
 
DANNGG! Vision 8 looks stellar. Next music video I'm shooting with Vision 8. I didn't like Vision 7 because for some reason it seemed dull to me...

Here's a music video I shot with Truecolor for an English Project:

I edited in iMovie '09 because I didn't feel like working in Premiere Pro CS4.

NOTE!!!:

***SELECTING "SOURCE" FROM THE "SELECT A FORMAT" MENU WILL GIVE YOU HIGHER QUALITY VIDEO. YOU MUST HAVE QUICKTIME PLAYER!***

I tried this preset but it doesn't look like you. The colors are much more insipid as yours ?! And darker ...
Why ?
