Re: FCP Removing Handy Cam look with out De-interlace

Hi David

Thanks for your reply, as I mention earlier in the thread I have two camera's and one I do not think has a progressive setting. This camera is used for water footage as I mainly shoot surfing ( freewayproject.com ) so if there is anything I can do to get both cameras footage looking like I need that would be really helpful.

I have adjusted my black settings but that was just a guess as I was trying to remove that handy cam look, but no, I have no idea if what I did was even close to correct. I normally have been making my darks a little darker, and giving a little bit more colour saturation. But this is just guessing. If you have any information about Colour Correction that could help me out, or somewhere that I could read up on it, it would be greatly appreciated.

So the answer to your questions
"I'll bet that your black levels aren't properly set." they are probably not set correctly
"Do you know what they should be?" no idea, I just guess
"Have you checked them?" yes I have checked them, but that doesn't mean I knowing what I am doing.

And again with the colour correction issue it is like I am walking through a jungle at night and I keep smacking my head into trees.

Again thanks for your reply and help

Regards
Joseph
