Re: Diplomatic approach to clients with badly set-up monitors

It's funny, but I'm experiencing something of the opposite problem.

I've been working on DI's lately, and we're seeing material that's seriously wacked.

In one case, our client admitted that their on set monitors were probably too bright, and that's why all of their film was shot too dark.

We suspect that many clients are coming to us from color grading sessions where the monitors are set up wrong (and scopes are either not being used or are ignored), and as a result, the material looks like crap when it gets to us & needs to be quickly re-graded.
