 What is up guys and welcome back to the John and Q channel. Thanks so much for watching in today's video I'm showing you how you can color correct and color grade your videos using Premiere LUTs and Adjustment layers So if you're looking for a fast and easy way to color your videos on the fly This is it drop your video into your timeline in your sequence And then what you want to do is add adjustment layers adjustment layers actually help you Color grade your footage without actually color grading your actual video file in Premiere Pro go to file go to new adjustment layer You'll press okay, and you drag it Right on top of your video just like this and then you want to go into your color panel Go over to creative and that's where you'll find your LUTs And this is a form of color grading it is not a true form of color grading but if you're trying to get content out fast and Color grade them without you know putting all this work and effort into it This is how you would do it if you want to adjust different things like exposure contrast highlights and shadows You go to your basic correction tab if you don't want to do that and go straight to the LUT You go right to creative and just scroll through the LUT you can see as you're scrolling You'll see different templates say I want this Fuji 5125 Kodak I just click on it and you can see it's at 100 percent But typically with color grading you don't want to go right at 100 percent You want to ease it in you want to ease the filter and it's not instagram It's not just a full blown filter So what I usually do is 50 between 50 and 55 that still looks a little too Too much lie the contrast a little down So it's not as punchy and as you scroll through these different filters It'll give you a different use of what it could look like what I usually do is this I had one adjustment layer for the color grading and that's my LUT and then I'll go into a whole new adjustment layer I'll drag that on there and then in the bottom adjustment layer I will actually adjust the shadows the contrast the highlights and all that stuff this part of my video is too bright I'll select The video part or the video portion that I want to actually bring the highlights down on And I'll just go from there So I'm not actually adjusting the whole color grade and its basic correction and the actual color grading in LUT I'm doing two different things. So it's a little more cohesive and a little bit better for my workflow Once you do that you render your footage and your color grade and you should be golden So there you guys have it just a quick and easy way into how you can color correct your videos on the fly Thanks so much for watching. I'll catch you next time on the johnny q channel. Peace
