    Where does the footage come from ? There are some issue that arise from RGB to YUV and the symptom is usually what you describe.

    Other than that, you can work with the “levels” effect, play with the gamma function as well (also part of levels).

    To add to what Vincent mentioned, You should always preview color adjustment and correction on a external video monitor to get a more accurate insight of whats going on.

    Please subscribe to the Premiere Pro podcast. One of the newer episodes deals with basic color correction. After you follow the tutorial, increase the “saturation” property of the Fast Color Corrector effect to get more vibrant tones.

    Thanks,

    [Aanarav Sareen] “increase the “saturation” property of the Fast Color Corrector effect to get more vibrant tones.”

    Well, that would help, but if the gamma curve is set too high (value number too low), as can be the case on a computer RGB monitor, saturation won’t fix the dynamic problem.

    You need to look at the footage on an external video monitor and use the waveform display available in PPro to really tell what’s going on.
