 Hey guys, welcome back to my YouTube channel. This is Daniel Rosal here. Today I'm going to be doing a video demonstrating how to do a little bit of color correction using Kaden Live. Now, firstly, let me apologize because I still haven't quite sorted out this YouTube channel. I'm going to be dividing into topics and setting up new YouTube channels. I will be setting up one specifically about Kaden Live tutorials. So that's coming soon. But just for now, this is going out on my main channel. So what I have here is a couple of clips from my time in Ireland earlier this year. And I look, you may notice, awfully red. I was sitting beneath one of those kind of heater things. You can actually see it there in the background that kind of puts out this orangey red light. And you can see I look literally red. So I thought this would be a perfect example to demonstrate trying to fix color using Kaden Live. So I'm actually going to grab two clips into my Kaden Live. Firstly, we're going to take me, the red man. And then there's another red clip, which is some reds at points of beer. You can see there's a cider and a beamish. So this is perfect because I want to show a couple of ways you can sort of do the same color correction on two different images. So I've dragged that into my Kaden Live now. So let's jump over to full screen on Kaden. And we have me, red man. And we have beer. So firstly, I'm just going to get rid of the sound so it's not distracting because we're just looking at the visuals here. So the first thing I would do and that I did, because this is a video I put together not so long ago, I did a color correction on this clip. So I have the lift gamma gain always. It's one of my favorite effects in Kaden Live. Therefore I can right click on insert an effect and it comes up. If you haven't figured this out yet, whenever you favor effect, favorite effects and compositions, they get put into this little menu here. So I'm going to click into that and now I have my color correction wheels. Now I want to say firstly, I'm by no means a master at color correction. In fact, I'm a total rookie. Nevertheless, this did take this clip from being kind of ridiculous looking to being somewhat okay. So having watched some color correction tutorials, the basic premise is figure out what's wrong with the colors. In this case, it's not hard to see I'm red and then move in the opposite direction. So using the gain wheel here, you can see this is where red is in the color spectrum. So I'm going to pull away from it and try to get it to some place where I look slightly less red. Now you can see what happens if I actually move towards red. I go from being slightly red to kind of totally red. And I'm just trying to find a place where my skin tone begins to look a bit more human. Maybe something like here, here, here. Now it's getting too dark so I'm going to crank up the brightness a bit, but not too much so it's overexposed. Now you can do this on gain, gamma, and left, right? Which are different parts of the image. This is a background. So that looks, I'm trying to think what color it was. So that's where I'm looking. It was, I believe, a kind of orangey door shade. So I'm going to move it a little bit here. And it's getting a bit of my skin as well. Now I'm looking jaundiced. You get the idea. It's very, very, it's very difficult work and it's much easier to do this on a big screen. But so far, I think we've already made a bit of an improvement, right? This was really, really red. This was the same color. And now I look kind of weird, but at least I'm looking less red. Finally, we have lift. Something you can do to quickly see how, because how each layer is going to affect is to just move it. So you can see with lift that the top highlights here, very little is changing. So this isn't going to really do a whole lot. For gamma, let's just go back. You can see if I make that red. So there's a lot of color information at that layer of the image. And something like this. It's really, really far from perfect. And this is one of those situations where it just would have been a lot easier to notice before I hit the record button that I was looking red and moved away from the heater than it is to try and fix this in post-production. But you know, this is something. Now we take our second clip here of beer. And I could say, well, it's probably the same problem as the color. So there's two ways you could do this. One is to just copy over the effects. Right click, click on copy, go on to our beer. Right click and click on paste effects. And now look at that, like magic. Now this is actually kind of clear that the difference here. This is my red beer. I'm going to copy it. And this is the beer with color correction. I'm just going to try that again. Right click, paste effects. Paste effects, there. That looks really, really weird, that red beer. And that actually looks kind of like stout and beer, right? So look at the differences that made. So again, on my kind of voice to camera thing, I still look weird a bit better. But here that was like pretty much almost fixed the clip in terms of its color profile. You can see the original and the changed one. So that's number one. You can just do a copy and paste effects. If you want to do this more quickly, I would recommend creating a keyboard shortcut by going into setting. Sorry, it's actually consider, configure keyboard shortcuts, search there for paste effects. And you can actually put a shortcut onto paste effects. Like if control V is for paste, maybe control B can be for paste. So I'm going to, the second way you can do this is as follows. So we're going to go on to me and we're going to get our color wheels back up. Now what you can do here is right click on this little button here for settings. Click on save preset. And you can create a color correction preset. I'm going to call this Daniel bar 1022 tests. Let me get rid of this later, right? Daniel bar 1022 test, that's a preset. Now what I can do here is I'm going to just delete and I'm going to add the lift gamma gain again. Lift gamma gain. And now I'm going to go into my presets and I should have Daniel bar 1022 test. And you can see I've just done the same color correction presets. So that's two ways and you can see that the value should match up 1.345 and 1.412 and 1.412, 1.3, et cetera. It's the same color correction. So that's if you're doing an entire, to copy from one clip to the next. Now the final way you could do this is as follows. I'm going to get rid of the color correction here and I'm going to get rid of it here. And we're going to go back to me looking super red and the beer looking super red and I'm going to add color correction to the actual track level. Color and image correction, lift gamma gain. And I'm going to drag that onto the video track. So what I've done now is I've added a track, I've added an effect that's going to apply to all the video clips. And what I can do now is go on to my preset again, Daniel bar and now it's going to be on here. And if we scroll over to the beer, it's applied to the second clip as well. So that's three ways to apply the same color correction settings to your whole footage roll on Kate and live video editor. Hope this has been helpful. Thank you guys very much for watching.
