Setting Up Your Work Environment
Set up your work environment to streamline the colour correction process. Use the tools provided to examine
the clip or image and efficiently perform advanced colour corrections. As your work progresses, you can
modify the Colour Warper environment to suit the task at hand.
You can:
■ Display multiple viewports.
■ View reference clips.
■ View the colour and luma content of a source (front) clip and result clip.
■ Apply a colour correction to all or part of a clip.
■ Dynamically update colour information as you work.
■ Reset entire colour corrections.
■ Clear or reset individual values.
■ Save and load colour correction setups and preferences.
■ Use the Undo/Redo list.
Multiple Viewports
When working in the Colour Warper, you can display up to four viewports at a time in the image window,
including a view of the Channel Editor. Multiple viewports are convenient when you want to modify colour
values, create mattes, and compare your result with other images in different viewports simultaneously.
NOTE The Overlay user interface cannot be used with multiple views in the Colour Warper tool.
Viewing Reference Clips
You can use the split bar to view and sample a reference clip while you work. Reference clips are particularly
useful when you want to match colours or compare colour corrections. Carefully selecting a suitable reference
clip will help you make your colour corrections quickly and efficiently. For example, you can use a reference
clip from the ConnectFX schematic to match saturation, whites and blacks, or colours. You can also switch
between different references to ensure continuity throughout the project.
