Apple Color - Music Video Color Grading Tutorial

[EGOSWORLD1]

@jessetwohands....I'm doing good ith this tutorial until I get to the secondaries tab...I go over to use the color pic and to select a piece of red from the guys red shirt and the small window doesn't give me a nice clecan black and white COLOR picker. Instead it doesn't give me all of the Red in the shirt only a portion of the red, and it looks blotchy...Any suggestions. Plus I couldn't change the color of the shirt to any color like you did, so I feel I'm doing something wrong..HELP

@EGOSWORLD1 Try dragging the colour picker across the different shades of red on the guys shirt, this will select a wider range of colours. Also adjust the sliders in the top right so you do get a good black and white 'key' of the colour you want to adjust. Sometimes you might find that if the footage was shot with low quality camera or a camera with a lot of compression, its harder to get clean 'key' from the colour you want or that the 'key' is more grey and black.

@EGOSWORLD1 However, with careful adjustments you should still be able to get a good looking colour grade or style. I hope thats helpful, let me know if I can help more?
