negative1, just wondering, but is your monitor calibrated?

 

 that's another HUGE problem.... i've got 3 monitors..

a dual screen setup

So in other words, no, your monitors are not calibrated.

there is a chance, i don't know how much .....but its possible

that the scans might be 4K !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

i have no idea if that is really necessary or not, but the format

will be 10k log files.......

 

i think 4k would be overkill, but since this is just a test, who knows?

If you're going to get it scanned, it might as well be at the highest resolution available.  No sense in doing it at a lower resolution and then end up wanting it at something higher a year or so later.  It might take up a lot more space, but it'll be worth it in the long run.

Hey, I lurked this thread from the beginning, and I'm more than willing to help out with what I can.  A problem with splitting the film up to color correct is that we all might have different opinions on a way a scene should look, and someone might do one shot one way, and the cutaway might look completely different.  I guess we could have one person do all of the Exterior Mos Eisley scenes, for example, so that the walls don't change shades in between shots...

Anyone that's going to do any kind of color correction for a project like this needs to have their monitor calibrated.  That way it won't matter if it's one person or 10 people.  If the monitors are all calibrated, then everyone sees everything the same way.  That's the whole point of calibrating your monitor.  Otherwise, you're right.  What looks like red to you may in fact be pink.
