Well, the learning never ends, according to my time line I should be... working on my 3D landscape today. Well, I was a good wife and help my husband on a shoot, then went to a family function and when I came home said ok, let me spend two hours and work. But something was bothering me. I did the exporting fo my image sequence to a tiff sequence, but I got a strange message that the sequence I was exporting wasn't 16 bit and wouldn't gain anything from a 16bit export. So I decided to research a little harder into color management and my workflow and I see that I have to research this a little bit more to get a truly dynamic color range with my footage.
I just started googling my codec, and tiff sequence, then 8 bit to 16 bit then a nightmare of information on color management came up. As important as light is to an image, Color is to story. Arg!!!

Ok, I know what I'll do. I'll use proxy tiff that are 8 bit for tracking and rotoscope as I have to stay on time, then replace with the 16, 24 or 32 bit image.
I have to research fast
