The montage features iconic scenes and images from commercials that have helped change they way we drive, all edited to the moving song Everybody Hurts by REM.

This campaign is a chance to revisit some of the images that have been engraved on our memories, remember the many thousands of people who have been affected by road trauma and remind us all that for everyones sake; please, drive safely - Transport Accident Commission Victoria."

Broadcast-safe video https://personal-view.com/talks/discussion/9839/broadcast-safe-video Mon, 10 Mar 2014 16:37:09 +0000 vstardust 9839@/talks/discussions What are broadcast safe limits for digital video dedicated for web distribution? As I have understood (correct me if I'm wrong) broadcast safe limits for minimum black level and maximum white level are mainly considered as analog displaying and broadcasting issues.

Alexis van Hurkman states in his Color Correction Handbook that "For purposes of color correction you can ignore analog NTSC video requirements for a black signal level of 7.5 IRE, because that is an analog issue that video output interfaces typically take care of during output."

In other chapter he says that "Maximum preferred white value for most broadcasters is 235, 235, 235, which sits about 93 percent when analyzed using a Waveform Monitor."

Should I use broadcast safe limits and what are they? Googling gives me incoherent information. Thank you.
