Example: Using the Color Corrector 3-Way Filter Match Hue
Controls

This example shows how to use the Match Hue controls of the Color Corrector 3-way
filter to match the flesh tones of an actor in two different shots. In the first shot, the actor
is outside, and the color of the shot is correctly balanced for daylight and has a cool blue
look. In the second shot, the actor has walked inside, where the color is incorrectly
balanced for tungsten, causing it to be excessively warm and emphasizing the reds.

The Match Hue controls
let you match hues in
two different shots.

To use the Match Hue controls of the Color Corrector 3-Way filter

1

Choose Window > Arrange > Multiple Edits to select the Multiple Edits layout.

This layout makes it easiest to use the Match Hue controls.

2

Because you’re matching the colors of clip 2 to those in clip 1, apply the Color Corrector
3-way filter to clip 2.

3

Open clip 2 in the Viewer, then click the Color Corrector 3-way tab.
