Workshop

Colour Correction in Digital Post Production

Everything blue? Orange? That video you just shot on the weekend doesn't match what you shot last month? You need Colour Correction. Join the RGB Parade! Conquer the mysteries of digital and analog colour space (YUV, RGB, YCrCb, etc.), broadcast safe colour, black and white points, gamma, vector scopes, waveform monitors, and histograms, as well as other NLE built-in colour correction tools. We will explore correcting natural skin tones, matching colour from clip to clip in a sequence, changing the time of day or feeling of a clip, and correcting colour within a long take using keyframes. The basics of this course will be taught using our Final Cut Pro 6 production suite, but we will also look at Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 & AVID and "hands on" exercises may be done on any system you prefer. This workshop has a maximum of 4 participants.
