After Effects Guru: Color Grading Footage (2014)

(light music) - Hi, my name's Rich Harrington, and welcome to this course, where we'll look at color correction and grading for After Effects. There are a lot of tools in Adobe After Effects, that match ones that you might be familiar with from applications like Photoshop or Premier Pro. But there are also some unique tools that I specifically enjoy using in After Effects that might cause me to go to After Effects for a little bit of a different, or an enhanced appearance to a shot. In this course, we're gonna explore several different workflows, starting with really basic techniques to get the shot looking its best, sort of a natural state.

And then, explore ways to manipulate the shot for both color and black and white looks. We've got a lot of ground to cover, so, let's begin.
