Apple Color 1.5 - Manual (Page 391)

Effects That Are Only Rendered for 2K and 4K Output
• When rendering out DPX or Cineon image sequences, all clips are rendered at the
resolution specified by the Resolution Presets pop-up menu in the Project Settings tab
of the Setup Room.
• When rendering out DPX or Cineon image sequences, all the transformations you made
in the Geometry room’s Pan & Scan tab are rendered.
• When rendering out DPX or Cineon image sequences, all video transitions are rendered
as linear dissolves when you use the Gather Rendered Media command to consolidate
the finally rendered frames of your project in preparation for film output. This feature
is only available for projects that use DPX and Cineon image sequence media or RED
QuickTime media, and is intended only to support film out workflows. Only dissolves
are rendered; any other type of transition (such as a wipe or iris) will be rendered as a
dissolve instead.
• Effects that you need to manually create that aren’t rendered by Color include any
video transitions that aren’t dissolves, speed effects, composites, and titles. These must
be created in another application such as Shake.
Effects That Are Rendered When Projects Use 4K Native RED QuickTime Media
• When rendering projects using 4K native RED QuickTime media, the output is always
rendered at the resolution specified by the Resolution Presets pop-up menu in the
Project Settings tab of the Setup room. Additionally, all the transformations you’ve
made in the Geometry room’s Pan & Scan tab are always rendered into the final media.
This is not true of projects using 2K native RED QuickTime media.
• If you’re outputting to film and you’ve set the Render File Type pop-up menu in the
Project Settings tab of the Setup room to DPX or Cineon, then all video transitions are
rendered as linear dissolves when you use the Gather Rendered Media command to
consolidate the finally rendered frames of your project in preparation for film output.
This feature is only available for projects that use DPX and Cineon image sequence
media or RED QuickTime media, and is intended only to support film out workflows.
Only dissolves are rendered; any other type of transition (such as a wipe or iris) will be
rendered as a dissolve instead.
• If you’re sending the project back to Final Cut Pro and the Render File Type pop-up
menu in the Project Settings tab of the Setup room is set to QuickTime, effects such
as transitions that have been invisibly preserved are not rendered. Instead, when you
send the finished Color project back to Final Cut Pro, such effects reappear in the
resulting Final Cut Pro sequence. At that point, you have the option of making further
adjustments and rendering the Final Cut Pro project prior to outputting it to tape or
as a QuickTime master movie file.
