How to correct to this…
I have this footage where a flourescent light is visible. The light was inadvertently “turned on” during the shoot. I want this to look like it was turned off since the scene entails a power outage.
Here is the screengrab of the scene:

There appears to be a smaller round light on in the hallway too!
Was the light on the entired time? or was it turned on sometime during the shoot? Was it on tripod where the camera didn’t move?
If you have a shot where the light is off, the general method would be to mask it out in this version and then replace it with the version that’s “off”. That would work best if camera did not move during the shoot and the person didn’t walk in front of the light, though.

The light was on for the entire footage and the camera also moved. I have tried bezier mark on the footage but I could not make the lights look like it is turned off.

Duplicate the track and on the top track apply the cookie cutter filter – rectangle shape – adjust feather and position and then apply brightness filter to that. You will have to key-frame position to compensate for camera movement. I applied .31 feather on your still and it looks quite natural. Hope that helps.
