April 19, 2016 at 5:04 pm in reply to: My SL1 clips has excessive red channel? or is it a common problem?I admit that I’m still unfamiliar to scopes, I use them mostly for white balance. Since the new Adobe CC redesign of the scopes, I’m still struggling to fully understand them. And a bit of the concerns also came from colleagues feedback saying that my reds are too bright on his HDTV, so it increase my confusions because like you said, the graphs seems to show nothing wrong overall.

April 19, 2016 at 4:47 am in reply to: My SL1 clips has excessive red channel? or is it a common problem?ok Thanks for the clarification!
Maybe I can then fix this in post. Only, I can only desaturate 3 channels at once, I haven’t found a tool that can desaturate only a channel if such thing exist in Premiere.

April 13, 2016 at 2:26 am in reply to: Anyone can recommend me a good reading/tutorial about color correction and color grading?Indeed I’m on 2015. There’s lack of documentation about the changes from the old vectors scopes and the new one I can’t grasp. There was a IRE 7.5 switch on the older one that doesn’t show in the new one. So I’m confused if I need to manually set my darker points to approximately 7.5 or just line up near 0.
Things like that.

April 12, 2016 at 7:15 pm in reply to: Anyone can recommend me a good reading/tutorial about color correction and color grading?Thanks! this is the kind of learning stuffs I’m after 🙂 Sounds like you learned good from this. The preview looks promising. Does it have exercise implying complex situation (the kind that make the vector scopes going in every directions, or containing many different cultural skinned people for example)?
Regardless, it look to be a great class, and like you said, very well worth it. Looking at it now.
Thanks !

March 30, 2016 at 6:17 am in reply to: Anyone can recommend me a good reading/tutorial about color correction and color grading?Beside, I think I am going to need more reading materials than quick tips in order to neutralize a clip. The 3 points above you mentions are great start, but I still have many question about those settings like why those IRE settings. Need more tips to adjust white balance, I don’t feel I am doing right just by clicking the white part with the eyedropper, it give me so many different results each clicks. And I don’t understand point #3.
I’ve been watching this guy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4JZlVS9hM6M which give great tips too but I’m still very confused about particular situations where there’s generally no tutorial to teach you right. Like what do you do when there’s crowds with many skin colors differences, what to do in evening and night etc…

March 30, 2016 at 4:05 am in reply to: Anyone can recommend me a good reading/tutorial about color correction and color grading?When I play with Fast color correction or Lumetri, the Parade goes out of IRE a lot. Do I need to worry about it?
here’s a look, red channel:

Any idea what’s going on?

March 30, 2016 at 12:52 am in reply to: Anyone can recommend me a good reading/tutorial about color correction and color grading?How do you set premiere in 32bpc? I thought it was doing that already?
Also, what previewing Sequences I should use? (like preview File format, codec, size, bit depth, composite lnear colors)
Those are obscure settings to me
