AE CS4 Color Settings - "Working Space:" = confusion?
by Robert Combs on Apr 22, 2009 at 4:32:58 pm

Hi, I'm trying to understand what the "Working Space:" (located within Project Setting) actually does.

Here's my situation...
I've created some graphic treatments for a college recruitment video. I've set the Working Space to "SDTV NTSC 16-235" because I didn't want the whites to blow out when shown on a TV monitor. However, when I was using the "info" tool to spot check my white text I'm seeing RGB values of 255!

So, what's the point and purpose of this setting?

Thanks,
Rob
