Hi,
If you want to Color correct the srource master as opposed to color correcting each clip….
you can do the following:
1) Make a sequence and call it “base color correction”
2) Edit master clips to the seqeunce without marks.
3) Color Correct the clips as necessary
Now here is where it gets a little unconventional:
1) You actually need to make your source selects from this sequence.
2) Use the razor to split the clip at their in and out points
3) Select the clip, Copy
4) Go t your main sequence and Paste the clip.
This will paste the selected clip into yout timeline with the cc information.
I would use this as Opposed to nesting, beacause ppl have complained that PPro gets a litle sluggish with big nests.
Copy and past still references the original media directly.
I’d also reccomend this for Constant CC, not CC that is Keyframed.
Tha should really be dine on the main timeline duirng the finish.
But this method should keep you consistent during the rough cut.
Good luck…
