So whats the difference between those Well your whites and your blacks are your extremes, say the upper five percent of the brightest areas and the lower five percent of the darkest areas.We spent the first half of this course getting our head wrapped around scopes and color temperature and light and some of the nuances in shooting.Now lets look at how we can fix all those things that are ignored when I actually shot this footage.
So the main thing were gonna be working with is a very specific effect called the lumetri color effect. Now this came out Im guessing a couple years ago in one of the Premiere Pro CC updates. If you are using, we had some people who were using other older versions of Premiere or they were using Premiere Elements. The lumetri color effect is probably not available in those, so there are other color correcting tools and you can use some of the examples that Im working with but you probably have to use multiple tools instead of this one streamlined tool, but I just wanted those who had earlier versions to be aware that theyre not finding it because its not there within their applica. So heres a shot and I spend a lot of time in hotel rooms. And I often try to shoot time lapses outside the window of hotel rooms, and this was yet another beautiful shot. So everything is kinda muted, its a little blue-green, its really not color balanced. Look at the contrast here, my contrast is, its fairly horrid. I can look at the color cast and I can see that what should probably be a generic blob in the middle is definitely going down towards the (mumbles) with a little bit of blue. Probably the right amount of greens but I have a little bit too much blue. So lets take a look at what I would do, the first thing when I color correct anything is I work with the luminance, because as you make an image brighter, and I indicated this right before the break, colors actually look less saturated and the problem may go away, you may not even see the issue. If Im making something darker, colors go even more saturated and may reveal an issue. And since we discovered that really the waveform and the vectors go up are fairly mutually exclusive, Im gonna go ahead and see if I can expand the dynamic range of this. Sometimes the auto button works, it does a best guess, lets take a look and see where that is as a starting point. So it didnt really expand my contrast, but it just brightened up the image a little bit. ![]() So how would I work with this image The first thing I wanna do is I wanna make sure that the overall exposure is correct, and were gonna go down through the entire lumetri panel here, and throughout the next 45 minutes, make changes with that. I do wanna step through the lumetri panel just so you have an idea of whats there and whats coming. So when you first open it up, and Im gonna zoom in so you can see this a little bit better. The first tab is basic corrections, and this is where you can apply a lookup table if you shot something flat, which is, we showed you some of that earlier. I can actually go in and I could do a white balance sample if I shot a gray card, if I shot a white balance card, and I can also manually control temperature. ![]() I can also deal with the whites and blacks and the highlights and the shadows.
