Question

Color change from Premiere to PowerPoint

Okay, this is a weird one. About six months ago I noticed that on some (but not all) videos, the color was different in Premiere Elements (15) than what played in PowerPoint; specifically, facial tone became much paler.

Since then, when this has happened, I've adjusted "Hue", making it redder (pinker) and that essentially works. But it's tedious – I have to save/export the newly hued video, import it to PPT and play, then again and again till it's right.

Anyone have any idea what's going on?

    Is your monitor calibrated?

    Are both programs using the same color space?

    Not quite sure what "color space" means but it seems like it may be on the way to an explanation. Only problem is that there was no problem before a few months ago and I haven't changed any equipment.

    I'm wondering if it could be related to the videos themselves. These are clips I get from the net in various ways: YouTube, file-sharing sites, etc.

    Also, I saw the "pale" videos on other monitors and they looked the same.

    Is it correct to summarize and say what you see in the finished product via VLC is not what you are seeing in the real time preview during editing?   In other words, it has nothing to do with PowerPoint.

    Would you please post the output settings?


    What I see in Premiere is different than what I see in the finished, edited, exported clip in VLC and PPT (again, with some but not all clips).
