Re: Compare Colour to Qcolour
by Arthur Puig on Sep 9, 2008 at 8:06:12 pm

I work on both a Pablo (QColor) and Color. In my experience, QColor offers real time grading, almost no render. But what you can offer in Color that Quantel cannot offer, is that in Color you have more tools to achieve looks, Qcolor is very poor when it comes to that, there are some curves (called fettle) which is very difficult and very disunctional, but you can't for example separate the RGB channels and treat them separately to achieve interesting effects, for example, there is no fx filter to achieve a simple bleach bypass in QColor. Also you have the portability to Final Cut that can help in achieving certain looks that with just color is harder. Another thing is that to me the bleeding angle between mids and blacks, and mids and highs is bigger than in Color, what that means is that when you adjust mids, it affects greatly your whites than if you do that in Color, in Color it seems they are a little more contained.
Hopes this helps!
