After Effects preserve correct colors on export

The preview in after effects was showing me the correct colors I wanted to see, but then when I exported (even using Quicktime Animation) the colors became a bit faded and washed out. To fix this I went to File > Project Settings ... and set Depth to 32 bits per channel
and Working Space to Apple RGB
.
