Earlier versions of After Effects used to be able to import AAF’s and OMF’s from Avid without any problems. But that feature was removed in CS5, I believe. Is good that with Automatic Duck we’re able to send our Avid sequences to After Effects back again!By the way, if I understood you correctly, since you activated the “AAF Edit Protocol” on your export, I assume that you’re grading your 5D shots in After Effects on its native format (h264 Quicktime files). Does After Effects give you better results on the grading process if you use the original files rather than a high quality intermediate like DNxHD, ProRes or Cineform?Either way, which project settings would you recommend for grading DSLR footage in After Effects, “32 bits per channel (float)” or “16 bits per channel”? About Color Working Space for footage shot in sRGB, should I choose “None”, “Adobe RGB” or “sRGB”?Any tips and advices would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
