# Threadjack
I'm entering a small film festival in my home town and I'm building an animation in Flash. Have any of you any experience with broadcast-safe colors? I don't have the hardware to color correct. Is there a list of RGB colors I can work from?

Help!

# Never Twice the Same Colour
Depends whether you're talking PAL or NTSC, Japan or anywhere else.

Black levels in Japan are 0IRE (RGB: 0 0 0) but everywhere else it's about 7.5IRE (RGB: 16 16 16).

As a rule, for PAL keep all channels between 16-235 and everything should be ok.

If you're using NTSC (Never Twice the Same Colour) then god* help you.

* being that there is no god, in other words you're screwed.

# further explanation
You can never trust colour management on TVs or projectors.. profiling can only do so much. What you can limit is colour bleeding and flare etc from levels that are too hot or noise in areas that are too black.. so your colours won't look identical but if you keep them away from full black and full white they'll be more reliable and less likely to make your whole image look like shite.

# NTSC
Oh no!

*gulp*

Thanks for your response!
EDIT:
I'll just keep the colors in that RGB range and keep the white/black slider-thingy in the middle. How about gradients? I was going to use them. Methinks I won't now. Thanks again BTW. Great help that was. :)

That'll be $37.50. I accept payment by cheque, direct debit, mastercard, visa or bricks of 100% pure cocaine.

# well, i doubt whether the colors would be that far off, anyway.
is it going to be presented on celluloid or digitally? if it's digitally presented, it shouldn't be any different.

really, though, if you have 10 or so differenct colors in the animation, there are still going to be 10 colors when you present, so even if they're off slightly, it shouldn't make much of a difference.

# It's not digital.
It's the other thing :)

I wish it was digital. I aught to call and find out if they can accommodate digital. This digital to NTSC conversion process (aspect ratio, color safe, title/action safe areas, etc.) is a real pain in the ass. Almost makes it not worth it.

# Dance of the Knights
from Prokofiev's ballet of Romeo & Juliet (from memory anyway)

/edit: as used in the famous 'pram down the steps' scene in Battleship Potemkin
/edit2: actually it might not be used in that scene but it's definatley in the film.

Actually 'Montagues and Capulets'. Though probably actually the Russian translation of this now I think of it.

# There's a page on his site
with a list of all the songs used in all his stuff.

My all-time fave is "I Can't Stop Raving" by Dune. Used extensively in Blode stuff.
