How do I Apply Color Correction to Entire Sequence

[Tom Wolsky]

The nest the sequence and apply the filter to the nest. Or copy and paste attributes.

All the best,

Easy in FCP as well. If you want to apply the SAME color correction settings from one clip to the rest of the sequence just open the first clip in the viewer and go to the filters tab where you have your final color correction settings.

2.) go back to you timeline and select all the other clips (make them highlighted)

3.) drag the filter to the selected clips – any one of them – and the filter will be applied to ALL the selected clips. When you drag the filter on all the clips they will change highlight letting you know that this filter will be applied to all the clips.

Another easy way to do it is to add the color correction filter to the first clip in your timeline, make the adjustments you need, then click on the clip so it is highlighted in your timeline and hit copy, then lasso or shift click the rest of the clips in your timeline so they are highlighted, right click on any one of them and select “paste attributes” and choose filters. This will apply the color corrector filter to every clip in the timeline with the adjustments intact. Of course if you have any other filters on the first clip they will be applied as well, so make sure the only filter on that clip is the color corrector if you do it this way.

Hey David thanks for the tip. I guess the thousands of people that post on this forum including you, didn’t find what they were looking for in the online help (in my case, I probably searched with the wrong keyword).

But thanks for your help though. Your usefulness doesn’t escape me.

Thanks a lot Matt, I really appreciate all the tips. I knew there was a very easy way to do this.
