Why is my footage darker in After Effecst than in Premiere? After Effects' timeline is set to Rec 709 Gamma 2.4, Premiere timeline is set to Rec 709
After Effects:
Premiere:
What's going on? They have the same color space. The export also looks brighter when I play it in Pot Player.
Why can't I get my exports to look right?
Found the issue, in Premiere I needed to turn on Display Color Management.
You can find this in Preferences > Color > Display Color Management
Now it looks the same in Premiere and After Effects. Still looks washed out in PotPlayer and Youtube but I guess that's to be expected.
If you have to export for Youtube then change the Working Color Space in After Effects to SRGB and it will look right.
