Abstract: Methods and systems for color grading video content are presented. A component (e.g. a frame, a shot and/or a scene) of the video content is designated to be a master component and one or more other components of the video content are designated to be slave components, each slave component associated with the master component. A master component color grading operation is performed to the master component. For each one of the slave components, the master component color grading operation is performed to the slave component and a slave color grading operation that is specific to the one of the slave components is also performed. Metadata, which form part of the video content, are created to provide indicators on to whether components of the video are designated as master or slave components.

Abstract: A method for color grading input video data for display on a target display comprises obtaining target display metadata indicative of a capability of the target display, obtaining input video data metadata indicative of image characteristics of the input video data, automatically determining initial values for parameters of a parameterized sigmoidal transfer function, at least one of the initial values based at least in part on at least one of the target display metadata and the input video data metadata and mapping the input video data to color-graded video data according to the parameterized transfer function specified using the initial values.

Abstract: Image data is encoded for distribution in a lower bit-depth format. The image data has a range that is less than a maximum range and is mapped to the lower bit depth format using a mapping such that a ratio of a range of the lower bit depth representation to a maximum range of the lower bit depth representation is greater than a ratio of the range of the image data to a maximum range of the image data. Metadata characterizing the mapping is associated with lower bit depth representation. The metadata may be used downstream to reverse the mapping so that tonal detail is better reproduced.
