This video teaches the importance of analyzing images with your eyes before making any corrections. You learn to look for things like: white and black parts of the image, brightness and contrast, color casts, and saturation. You go through these questions on three separate images to get an idea of what needs to be corrected.
- [Ashley] Color correction is such an important part…of the post-production process.…During this process,…you should follow a workflow to achieve best results;…starting by correcting individual shots…for proper contrast, color balance, and saturation.…You then go through and establish shot-to-shot consistency,…making sure that each of the shots within a scene…look like they belong together.…And finally, you have the option of stylizing your footage…to add a particular look or style…to the scenes in your film.…We'll touch on the first part of this workflow…in this course,…which should give you some solid skills…in the art and science of color correction.…
To learn more about the rest of the process,…you can check out any of the other…many color correction courses available…on Lynda.com and LinkedIn Learning.…And if you're just starting out,…my course Introduction to Video Color Correction…would be a good place to begin.…Now, in order to go through the color correction process,…you need two main things to really do it right.…
