The 10 project-based lessons in this book include step-by-step instructions with accompanying screenshots to show students how to color correct footage with Adobe SpeedGrade CC. Students learn to take a project from beginning to end where they'll get the basics down on the interface, customizing the UI, and SpeedGrade workflows. Then they'll be guided on setting up projects, creating primary corrections, using masks, adding secondary layers, scene balancing and copying grads, keyframing, reframing clips, applying effects and transforms, and then finishing off the project with the final render and output.
Not only will students learn how use the features but also why they make certain choices so clips look great, are in balance with one another, have suitable levels for broadcast, and are stylistically in line with the needs of the film or video project. All the lesson files and high-quality HD, RED, and stereoscopic clips are available as a download on the Peachpit website so students can work step-by-step along with the book.
