Ok, I read enough books & understand enough to go out and start a color grading lecture class. I understand all about black levels, luma levels, legal levels, etc, etc..
I also understand that if you watch the same movie on 10 different TVs, you might see 10 different pictures. I get that.
I get that a good calibrated monitor is a LARGE part of color grading.
But what I don’t get, and I never will, is this:
Why when I change the presets on my TV, (sports, multimedia, movie, ) I get very subtle differences on the movie that i’m watching.
But when I go thru the presets on a movie that I color graded, the difference between "Moive or Sports" can be the differences between FANTASIC or CRAPPY.
There seems to be a Large jump between presets, but again, not a big difference when watch a TV show.
Can anybody explain why this would happen?
Is my tonal range too narrow?, too wide?
I am in a total loss for words, :scorching
Thanks,
Lou
