Hi guys,
I'm very new to video, I'm moving over slightly from a stills background as I've received funding to direct my first short film (of a screenplay I wrote) as a pitch for a feature.
I'm shooting on a Canon 60D, and I have the latest version of Magic Lantern installed. The only Magic Lantern setting I'm using is the cropmarks overlay, so I can see the camera LCD in the cinescope aspect ratio. Everything else outside of the Overlay tab hasn't been touched at all, it's the firmware default.
I'm getting this weird blue where (I assume) there should be total black. I've noticed it on the edge of a bowel, inside a coke can etc. but it's most noticeable when shooting these drawings (as shown below). Since I'm also new to the 60D I don't know if it's an ML issue or an issue with the 60D's settings.
It's not a software issue as the files look like that straight out of the camera, they look like that in Sony Vegas and they look like that after being exported.
However, I do notice that they slightly flicker on the page when the pencil is pressed down. Could this maybe be a reflection issue with the lights I'm using in that location? I'm not using any special lights, they're just the ones that are in the kitchen all the time. The flickering isn't noticeable unless I watch it on my 21inch screen (full screen) or larger.
Here's sample shots of what I mean:
The blue lines:
The flicker of the blue lines: (watch the arm in the drawing)
Can anyone offer a little bit of help as to how to get rid of this or what it might be?
(I only notice the colour difference now, that's because the very first image is from the colour corrected final product. And the other two images are SOOC)
