PROBLEM: Alchemy settings not carrying over to Premiere

[Kahlil Hudson]

Exported an xml from Premiere, imported into RCXP, color graded with Alchemy settings applied, and imported xml back into Premiere.

Everything from RCXP carried back over to Premiere except the Alchemy settings. Any way to get them to apply?

Nope it´s a "inside of RCXP feature only"

It's in the post tab in redcine, those don't carry over unfortunately

 

[Kahlil Hudson]

Thanks for the responses. Bummer. I was going to do a quick final pass through speedgrade, is my only option exporting prores from Redcine and chopping that up in speedgrade? Hate to have to render out twice.

Is there a way that you can recreate what alchemy is doing inside of Premiere? With the new color tools in premiere 2015, this should theoretically be doable buried have no idea what alchemy is technically doing to be able to do it myself. Any thoughts? I really like what alchemy does to skin tones.

Alchemy is nice. You only get it in RCX unfortunately. Bummer huh?

Love that sharpening look!

What part of the Alchemy look do you want? Sharping or the increased contrast?

Alchemy pulls the blacks down in a cool way, that's about all I know, and it usually looks really awesome

Yeah it does. If we could figure out what that slider is targeting...

What is that effect doing technically.

My footage often looks way more beatiuful in RCX than the final export from Premiere or FCPX.

I guess I don't know exactly what it is doing, or the combo of things, so the closest emulation of it that can be repeated inside of Premiere would be a cool little workaround. Maybe Graeme will lend out his secret sauce recipe if we ask him really really nice...
