Hi,

So when you select a couple of video tracks and then click "Make fusion clip", whatever grading you did on those tracks stays and fusion "accessses" the graded output.

But it seems when you used "Referenced Composition" ( so you can easily re-use the effects ), then the fusion composition sees the raw clip data rather than the graded output. Which is really annoying when you try to do re-usable composition ( like picture in picture / side by side views ) of completely different material requiring completely different grading to bring them to a common style.

I didn't find any obvious way to have referenced composition work like fusion clips but maybe I missed something ?

Cheers,

Sylvain

Hey, Sylvain, I'm facing the same problem right now - losing color grade of clips after creating referenced composition for two or more layers.
Did you figure something out?

Hi @drake5000

No I didn't ... I ended up using fusion clip and copying the node tree manually ... A royal pain and completely defeating the advantage of "Referenced Compositions" :/

If anyone ever finds something, I'd love to hear because I really need this ...
