April 8, 2023

Colorist and finisher Jason Bowdach revisits the topic of which setting to use in Resolve for exporting to Premiere Pro: Data vs Video Levels?


Series

Wrestling with round-trip workflows

Roundtripping between post production software applications is complex and ever-evolving, especially as all of our software platforms get updated independently of each (and generally with little regard for competing platforms). It’s nearly impossible to generate a broad set of rules for moving timelines between different applications that work 100% of the time.

That’s exactly why I have to emphasize that everything in this insight is evolving and the recommendations found are based on the specific versions of the software utilized in the test, at this moment in time.

Throughout this series, I’ll be approaching application-specific issues and will attempt to boil them down to a simplified set of recommendations that you can follow for optimal results. If at some point in the future you follow these recommendations and the workflow breaks down, let me know in the comments! I will revisit this topic in the future on an as-needed basis.

Today, we’re deconstructing the often problematic rendering from DaVinci Resolve into Premiere Pro.
