Hue vs Hue is also useful for making more radical changes to elements that might be too noisy to
successfully key using the HSL qualifier controls. For example, red autumnal foliage blowing in the wind
might result in a chattery matte, but you can use the Hue vs Hue curve to change all reds to greens,
without having to worry about aliased matte edges giving your correction away.
Hue vs Sat
The Hue vs Sat curve lets you selectively alter the saturation of any hue within the image. This is a
terrific tool for creative effect, allowing you to quickly and easily boost the saturation of elements you
want to catch the viewer’s eye, while reducing the saturation of elements you’d prefer the audience not
dwell upon.
This can be extremely useful for legalizing oversaturated overshoots or undershoots during a QC pass.
For example, desaturating reds that are off the charts while leaving everything else alone.
