4 Easy Tips for Color Correction in Premiere Pro

[@kachymaura]

Best lesson ever.... White balancing when there is no white and grey in the the shot is a game changer

[@eagle8burger]

Color correction is something I’ve always struggled with understanding. I can’t tell you how many times someone’s told me about how to use lumetri scopes and I left understanding less than I thought I knew before. In 8 minutes, you used excellent, practical examples of how to correct color in almost any circumstance while demonstrating how almost every scope works. I applaud and appreciate you, sir.

[@MikeAnvil]

This is absolutely amazing. I’ve been shooting my own music videos for the last few months with almost no idea of how to properly color correct them and this was easily the best tutorial I’ve found so far. Thank you

[@pandjus]

The way he uses the pen tool to correct the colours when there isn't a white and grey on the screen is low-key the most goated tip, Thank you my friend. I didn't regret watching this video.

[@phuotchillchill]

please, how his screen became BLACK (just only pen tool) :( i did the same but cant

[@WillPlaysTheDrums]

Hard to even express how much this single video has helped me produce video content. Literally reference it every single time I put something out

[@mxx720]

I really appreciate that you included instructions for dark skin. So many cameras are designed to detect lighter skin tones.

[@trapnextone]

Hi. Emmy nominated journalist here. You stepped up my video editing game more in 8 minutes than any professional development I've done since college. Thank you. Tip #3 literally made my jaw drop.

[@junitasarah3328]

Woahhhh... Emmy nominated! That's so cool.. Congrats🎉

[@diannebarry5093]

All really useful but tip 4 is particularly good for adjusting for different skin tones without using a white surface. Many thanks

[@envatotuts]

Glad it was helpful!

[@aayushgautam4369]

This is the best tips for color correction out of thousands of videos i have watched on this topic of color correction

[@brianchristopher8121]

The flesh tone line was the one that I wasn't grasping, but you just completely educated me on it and the "tip" with the mask FX was Genius!

[@FaithandFitnesswithRachel]

I've been struggling with color correction for a while now. You broke this down so well and I feel much more confident in my skills. Thank you!

[@christopherwood1668]

This is amazing. I've been doing videography for a few years, but just got a Canon R7 and tried Clog3 for the first time ever. After watching several videos, I felt overwhelmed, and this video changed that for me. After playing around for a few hours, I feel super confident in my colouring now! thank you a million times!

[@envatotuts]

Glad it was helpful!

[@MykalBlack]

I used these on final cut, never knew I could do the same on Pr. Thank you for the best tutorial on colour correction I've watched yet. All the 4 tips were very useful.

[@envatotuts]

You are so welcome!

[@natteper5824]

As a new filmmaker, this has had to be the most informative and useful colour grading i have found. Keep up the great work!

[@birdwithadrone]

Agreed! This video is fantastic

[@Bears85yemi]

FYI, color correction and color grading are different. Color correction is obviously just to correct colors, as shown in this video. Color grading is when you want to make a video more cinematic.

[@kaylakey7997]

Tip #4 was my favorite tip. I never thought about creating a mask first. Game-changing! Thank you!

[@Vizeral]

This is hands-down the best color grading tutorial i've watched. It does wonder for my flat video.

[@onlysublime]

wow! this was such a good tutorial! I've watched a lot of color correction videos and most of them boil down to playing with sliders but you provided a systematic way to do it.

[@skitownstreetcred]

Before you asked the viewers to comment below, I already wanted to say how thankful I am for this tutorial. I've been in film and photography now for some time. I never take things for granted and never act too good to learn new ways. This is a fantastic video and I truly appreciate your time. Happy New Year everyone!

[@sabaahmadsheikh6217]

Thanks so much, this was so helpful, especially for beginners. Fave part was the skin colour correction.

[@envatotuts]

Hi! So glad the tips helped, and awesome to hear you liked the skin color correction part! Thanks for watching!

[@g5machine]

One of the best videos I have ever seen about Color corrections

[@iamnowfound]

White balance and flesh tone portions were game changers for me.

[@Hernandezvideofilmaudio]

All great tips because I'm struggling right now to color correct a video that was shot by someone else in another country. I'm very close to matching my clips that are perfectly balanced but I'm struggling with the skin tones so I would say tip number four is my best tip because you're showing how I could do it without having anything white in the clip which is my situation. I'm going to give it a try this morning. Thanks

[@akabolbs]

This video was the most helpful color correction tutorial I have ever seen.. I have watched hundereds of vids from top "filmmaker" creators and this was by far the most helpful. Thanks!

[@johnraymondlachica2694]

went through when I first started video editing, now it's taking a whole new switch and learning soft will only boost my courage for the

[@LastFrontierFresh]

The flesh line tip was super cool. I've only been working with premiere pro for about 6 months and color correction is still novel to me.

[@otjinate423]

Very streight to the point no time wasting

[@visionaryvideomarketingsol8774]

Thanks so much for this. I have had problems with color many times and this was no exception. Didn't think I could match colors up, but I am so glad I found your tutorial. Kudos to you.

[@DanishSyawal]

You're way is easier and more effective than what I was taught before. Thank you so much for the tutorial

[@envatotuts]

[@laurabv3571]

You are a freaking legend my dude! I was editing a video and cuz of the light the skin was yellow, your trick to correct the skin, mind blown. Thank you so much!!!! WON A NEW SUBSCRIBER!!

[@classzedits]

very and extremely helpful. in just a short video, you showed everything how to color correct not only the skin tones but the entire scenes as well in so easy to understand and follow demos. as an intermediate, i super appreciate this. thank you.

[@aimankuaci]

not only you show me how to colour correct, you also teach me some technical stuff on colours.. Thanks a lot!

[@envatotuts]

Happy to help!

[@railmoments]

This is the most helpful tutorial I have seen for color grading, especially when beginning with skin tones and then working out the white balance. Excellent video!

[@-Himax]

I must say your tutorial is one of the best in just 8 minutes. You change my color editing skills I really appreciate.... Please can you do a tutorial on how to get the right color on a footage and how to create a cinematic color grading

[@Hernandezvideofilmaudio]

Excellent video. Tip 4 was the one I needed because my clip does not have any white in it but I followed your instructions perfectly using the Vectroscope YUV to balance the skin tones which was my issue and now the video looks perfect. Thank you again.

[@ghostwriterinme5050]

Excellent tutorial and the best parts are color correction for the flesh tones. Number three and four were great. Thanks!

[@julienmichel]

Tip number 4 will be a game changer for me !

[@CristiKerekes]

That's my favorite one too :)

[@russelrealeza5252]

You are right brother, learning something will really eat much of your time. But, I never felt that because you are able to share and explain the step by step process of the proper way of color correcting a video. Hats off to you man! Best tip is just masking a certain area of skintone/white and then adjusting it accordingly so it hits the Vectorscope. Really helpful brother!

[@envatotuts]

So nice of you

[@josiahkeen9793]

Incredibly instructional and to the point tutorial!

[@sparkyjshaw]

Wow! Excellent! You asked which was the favorite tip - The flesh line. By far the best video I've found on color correction in Premiere! Thank You!

[@JuanDavidCardonaVilla]

I loved all the tips, man. Thank you!

[@envatotuts]

Glad it was helpful!

[@360srimankamalprithamtharr8]

3 & 4 absolutely love it

[@BryenOlakproductions]

My favorite tip is tip no. 4. Using the vectroscope YUV since skin tones matter alot. Besides I think I learned sth new which is to create a mask in the opacity to single out the area we are using to correct WB with which enables the scope to only take reading from that area, awesome! 😊👌🏾

[@gabrielwilliam9262]
