In this After Effects tutorial, we’ll learn how to incorporate a linear workflow into our projects to get better results.
We’ll start off going over how light behaves linearly and how our vision system perceives light non-linearly. Then we’ll learn what video gamma space is and why we use it to store standard digital images
After that, we’ll go over some of the problems that happen when you composite in video gamma space. We’ll see all the advantages of 32-bit float using a Cineon file, learn more about the advantages of working in linear gamma instead of video gamma and then set up a project in linear color space to see what After Effects is doing behind the scenes.
Finally, we’ll put theory into practice as we composite a forest fire in linear color space and compare it to the same shot comped in video gamma.
By the end of this After Effects training, you’ll have a solid understanding of how to work in a linear color space and why a linear workflow can benefit your own projects.
