SESSION DESCRIPTION

High Dynamic Range (HDR), RAW, sLog, vLog, HDR, 10-bit, 12-bit… With all these different high-end video formats, it’s easy to get confused. How do you work with them in Premiere Pro CC?

Larry Jordan was asking himself these same questions. So, he borrowed some cameras, started shooting, then shared what he learned. His goals for this session are to illustrate:

• Key definitions and core concepts behind HDR media
• Tips for color grading media in Premiere
• Issues with HDR media in Premiere
• How to work with RED, log and ProRes footage in HD sequences
• How to create HDR sequences
• How to create a custom LUT using Premiere and Photoshop
• How to export HDR media from an edited Premiere sequence.

If you want to learn how to make your images look better, or learn more about these high-end formats, or have been working with HDR for a while and have questions, this session is for you.

AUDIENCE LEVEL
