I use the color balance effect for most of my color adjustments. I've found that knowing what colors to remove can be just as important as knowing which ones to add.

[@HeroDestrin]

I didn't know about that effect, I use selective color to remove colors. And yeah you're very right with that, too much of color correction is adding things in while color correction is actually two steps: correction (to make it look like what you'd see in real life, almost boringish), and then grading (to make it look cinematic). I used to skip correction and it made a lot of my videos look bad lol

[@ex18ga24]

I use Magic Bullet looks to make my video cinematic.

[@BlackMixture]

Love this!!! You are definitely right ✅ We can go on and on about color, shud we make a video about it?

[@HeroDestrin]

@@BlackMixture yesh color is something I have yet to fully understand

[@marcus_ohreallyus]

BTW, that comment applies to my CG medical work... not sure how it would apply to real world footage.

I'd be curious about how you'd solve the colouring of the solar light that gets reflected from the mountains (far right, upper corner). that area still looks a bit messy. I've encountered this issue as well a couple of days ago (& still trying to figure it out). Thanks

Profound tutorial, I love it! However a lot of that stuff with the car's stripes being removed, and the linear wipe stuff, could be fixed with a mask and a maybe another precomp and matte setting.

[@BlackMixture]

Yes!!! We can def do that. Thanks so much!!!👌

[@BlackMixture]

Welcome to fam 🥰

[@TheLisanAl_Gaib]

The mountains are bit too blue. How to fix that?

[@HeroDestrin]

Make a new adjustment layer, roughly animate a very feathered mask over the mountains, and use a curves adjustment on the layer to bring down the blue and lightly bring up some red and maybe a bit of green. That should work

[@aarviaman9358]
