Make Simple Color CorrectionsJump In:

When you have color or exposure problems with a clip, you can apply a color

correction lter to make basic corrections. (If you need to make sophisticated color

grading corrections, you can use the Color application to grade your clips with

professional tools and controls.)

Adjusting and grading the color in clips can be a complex process requiring an in-

depth understanding of color components such as luma, saturation, and tonality as

well as an understanding of the use of video scopes and color wheels. Although

teaching expert color corrections is beyond the scope of this book, you can try using

the Color Corrector 3-way lter to see the types of simple changes that are possible.

When you apply the Color Corrector 3-way lter to a clip, you see the following controls

in the Color Corrector 3-way tab in the Viewer.
