I'm puzzled why in Final Cut Pro X, when I have 3 Multicam takes (each with the exact same cameras, lenses, artificial lighting setups, and manually set white balance, aperture, etc), why are the results so drastically different when I copy and then paste color and lighting corrections (using shift-command-V)?
Great insight. I've forgotten to delete old color corrections in the past and added new ones to a clip in the past, but that is not the issue this time. It's almost as if the f-stop changed by two stops. Perhaps, I modified the lighting levels during the shoot and don't remember doing so.
Just want to confirm that it is possible to copy the fx settings from one angle in a Multicam clip and paste it into a clip in another Multicam clip.
Thanks, Luis. When I paste the color corrections from one angle in a Multicam clip to an identical angle (lens, lighting, etc) in a second Multicam clip (from a different take). The new clip is over-exposed by a couple of stops. Bringing down the global luminosity levels does the trick.
Do you really need to render? Most systems should be able to play back basic color corrections without renderings. Masks and plugins are a different story.
Background rendering is a misnomer; there's really no such thing in FCP. Rendering doesn't start until after you've paused and stopped doing anything in the application. It's really rendering while idle.
Have you perhaps accidentally copied the color correction more than once to the angles?
Some screenshots may help us get an idea of what is going on.
Perhaps you could show us examples of each angle with and without corrections?
My issue copying the color corrections from one take to another was due to slow rendering times. It takes awhile for FCPX to render corrections. The rendering didn't start for about 10 minutes.
Why are pasted color corrections between takes varying so much between takes?
