Getting Started
1. Please make sure you have QuickTime Player 7.6 or 7.7 installed
2. Please make sure you have the Adobe CS5.0/5.5 Performance booster installed: This modified Adobe XML
file is necessary to export at 10-bit YUV422 in Adobe After Effects 10.0/10.5. You can learn more and download it
by clicking
here . (This is not needed for Adobe CS 6.0 software as it already ships with the necessary
modifications in the XML file)
3. To preserve the maximum bit depth, please make sur e you have the ‘Depth’ in the After Effects ‘Project Settings’
to either 16 or 32-bits per channel.
4. To preserve the maximum bit depth, please make sur e you have the ‘Preview’ in the After Effects ‘Composition
Settings’ to UNCHECKED.
5. At the time of this release, After Effects 11 (AE CS 6) has not been tested but presumably it should function in the
same manner as AE 10.0/10.5 for using Calibrated AVC-Intra Create.
Output Module Settings for 10-bit YUV422 Export in AE
1. [Optional] – if you are working with an interlaced project and exporting to an interlaced compression type,
please be sure to set the ‘Field Render’ properly in the ‘Render Settings’ of the Render Queue in AE
2. In the ‘Output Module Settings’, please choose ‘QuickTime’ for the format
3. Make sure the Depth is set to ‘Millions of Colors’
4.
Click on the ‘Format Options’ button and the ‘QuickTime Options’ window will pop-up
a. Choose the Calibrated AVC-Intra Create Compression Type that best matches your Composition Settings in
the ‘Video Codec’ drop down menu. (Please see the ‘Overview’ section at the beginning of this chapter to see
what Compression Type matches best with your Composition Settings)
b. Make sure the ‘Quality’ slider is 100
c. Make sure the Width/Height is set to either 1920x1080 or 1280x720 and PAR is at Square Pixels (1.0) for
AVC-Intra 100 Encoding, OR 1440x1080 or 960x720 and PAR is at HD Anamorphic (1.333) for AVC-Intra 50
encoding - pick the Resolution/PAR that matches the AVC-Intra Compression Type you are encoding to.
d. Do NOT press the ‘Codec Settings’ button as this will cause After Effects to give an error message before
encoding
– since the default encoding colorspace of Calibrated AVC-Intra Create for OSX is ’10-bit
YUV422/Gamma’ then there isn’t a need to setup any of the codec settings in Calibrated AVC-Intra Create for
OSX for After Effects.
