  • Colour correction on hair

    Posted by Drew Maitland on March 6, 2014 at 1:09 pm

    Hi guys. I am currently motion tracking, masking
    And colour correcting in after effects cs6. The clips
    I am editing require a streak in the main characters
    Hair to be colour corrected from blonde (yellow) to
    White. Because the hair colour seems to match
    A portion of the background in most shots I am forced to
    Track and mask and that is coming along slowly
    But surely. In some shots by applying change to
    Colour and then hue and saturation I achieve the look
    Of white hair. However in fast moving shots this option is
    Making my hard work look amateur because if the mask
    Moves slightly off a portion of the hair it’s easy to see the
    Saturation effecting the background. If I use change to colour on its own and select white I get pink instead. I really hope someone has a solution or I may be posting
    A completion status in about four years. Thanks guys.

    use a good keyer as an alpha mask to help support change to color effect.
