Edit color ranges individually
Secondary color correction allows individual colors in video and image objects to be
adjusted. This includes essentially two layers, the fore and background. The master
layer may also be used to influence the overall image.
The foreground layer corresponds with the mask created, and editing in the
background changes all of the areas outside of this mask. The mask may be assigned
to a certain color or to multiple colors simultaneously.
To open color correction, click the video or image object and open the entry "Color
correction" via "Video effects" in the Media Pool.
"Add" allows a color to be
selected with the pipette tool to
create a mask. MAGIX Video Pro
X5 displays the mask in black and
white stripes to highlight the
current selection.
Click with the pipette tool on the
color in the program monitor that
you would like to add to the current
layer until your selection is
complete.
Unwanted colors can be removed
from the selection again by selecting
"Remove" and clicking the
corresponding color.
Select the layers (fore and
background) to edit.
