At Frender, when tackling the task of changing the color of an object in a 4K video, our workflow typically involves the following steps:

1. Initial Assessment: We begin by evaluating the specific requirements of the color change, considering factors like the object’s size, its movement, and the surrounding environment in the footage.
2. Choosing the Right Software: Depending on the complexity of the task, we select the most suitable software. For simpler adjustments, Adobe Premiere Pro is often adequate, thanks to its improved Lumetri Color tools. For more intricate work, we lean towards Adobe After Effects or DaVinci Resolve, which offer greater precision and control.
3. Importing and Preparing Footage: The 4K video is imported into the chosen software. We ensure the project settings match the video’s resolution and frame rate to maintain quality.
4. Object Isolation: Using masking or rotoscoping tools (like the Roto Brush in After Effects), we isolate the object whose color needs to be changed. This step is crucial for precise color adjustment without affecting the rest of the frame.
5. Color Adjustment: We then apply color correction to the isolated object. In After Effects, this might involve keying techniques or using effect layers. In Premiere Pro, the Lumetri Color panel is used for color grading, and in DaVinci Resolve, we utilize its node-based color correction system.
6. Refining the Effect: We pay close attention to ensuring that the color change looks natural within the scene. This involves adjusting parameters like luminance, saturation, and shadows/highlights to make the color change seamless.
7. Quality Checks and Rendering: After the color adjustment, we review the footage frame by frame to ensure consistency and quality, especially given the high resolution of 4K. Once satisfied, we render the video, maintaining the 4K resolution.
8. Final Review and Output: The rendered video is then reviewed for any final adjustments. After approval, it’s exported in the desired format, ready for use.
