    hey guys! How do I adjust the black and whites of my videos? Is that the gain and the other one((the 1st one on the right)? And any color correction tips will really be VERY helpful! Thank you!

    *I’m now editing a holiday short film. Is blue a good color when I color correct it?
    and what’s a good color correction for a FLASHBACK. What effects should I use to make it look like a flashback from a child?

    thnx again!

    The blacks and whites can be corrected with low and high wheels on the Color Corrector. You can also spread the black and white so that it uses all the luminance values with the Levels fx. You should use the waveform monitor in the video scopes while adjusting the levels so that you don’t go below 0 or above 100. I would do this first before color correcting.
