One piece of software that you can create a time-lapse movie with from start to finish is Adobe Lightroom. How do you correct the color of the images across the whole time-lapse without there being discrepancies? In this video, Richard Harrington walks you through how to correct the color of your time-lapse images in Lightroom.
- When I correct color, I generally tend to do it second.…Now, if the white balance for the image is totally off,…fix that first.…Note at the top, you do have the ability to tweak…the white balance.…You could see how it was shot, or let Lightroom guess…with Auto; choose presets such as Daylight, or Cloudy,…or anything else that makes sense.…I tend to not use Flash, obviously, but Tungsten…is pretty common for nighttime shooting.…In this case though, I'm happy with how it was shot.…
If the white balance was really off, you might have…to fix that before you made the exposure adjustments.…Once that's done, I recommend you scroll down…to the bottom area here, and take advantage of…the Presence controls.…Vibrance is going to selectively add saturation.…You could, of course, boost the overall saturation,…but you'll note that in this case the rocks are…really becoming solarized.…So I'm going to pull that back down,…and get a more natural looking rock.…
It's looking good.…I've already tweaked the tone curve, so I'll twirl that up.…
