Overview

Welcome to this beginners class on How To Color Grade Your Footage & Create Custom Video LUTs in Premiere Pro CC!

Almost every big-budget feature film has been color graded to look a certain way, and in recent years, it's become increasingly easy to color grade your own footage using popular video editing software!

In this course for beginners you will learn:

  • What color correcting is and how to color correct a clip that's provided in the course
  • What color grading is and how it can be used to make your footage look even better
  • How to color grade your footage using Premiere Pro CC
  • How to use the secondary color correction tab to change certain parts of your footage
  • How to work with footage shot in a flat LOG profile and color grade it
  • The fundamentals of color grading scopes inside Premiere Pro and how they can be leveraged when color grading, or correcting your footage
  • What LUTs are and how to apply a corrective LUT to log footage
  • How to create and export custom LUTs
  • Where to place your custom created LUTs and how to name them so they show up conveniently inside Premiere Pro CC

and more!

In the class project, you'll find the same footage files we used in the course so that you can download them and follow along! (We encourage you to do so because it will help you retain the information required to color grade footage.)
