Ok - so thanks for the tips - and the solution I’ve now got RAW plates first going through a regular colorspace node - just changing primaries from sRGB to AlexaV3LogC
Next an add to eliminate the tiniest negatives…. A final OCIO colorspace node going from ARRI V3 LogC (EI800) wide gamut - to ACEScg And then a final reverse out of everything at the end - And this gives me the right results - zero negatives and a good looking pic. This tells me that the OCIO colorspace node doesn’t change primaries when going from ARRI to ACES / in fact expects the right ARRI primaries - and that this plate has been adjusted somewhere along the way. I’m guessing which primaries with the first conversion from sRGB to ARRI primaries ( which eliminates 99% of the negatives) - but it works and I can now work in ACES. Anyway - thanks for all the pointers N Neil Rögnvaldr Scholes Director | VFX Supervisor www.neilscholes.com <http://www.neilscholes.com/> +44 (0) 7977 456 197 > On 29 Oct 2016, at 19:25, Neil Scholes <n...@uvfilms.co.uk> wrote: > > Thanks for that I'll check it out.
