color matching between clips

[Josh Meredith]

I have done this with good results using the color corrector plug-in. Apply the color correction to the track you want to change, but have the timeline cursor over the track you want to match so that it displays in the preview window. Then use the eyedropper tools in the color correction plug-in for lows, mids, and highs to sample the corresponding tones on the good looking scene. I can’t really give you more details than that, because I just messed around with it to figure this out. I didn’t really know what I was doing. But it worked for me. I was able to match two scenes shot in the same place at the same angle, but at different times of day (differing amount of sunlight coming through the windows).

Use a SPLIT SCREEN (icon over the preview screen) to make this job a whole lot easier.

I like the split screen also. It seems to work well in color correction and with color curves (try that).
