Apple Color

Instructor: Michael Poggenburg

Do you own Final Cut Studio and find yourself intimidated by the foreign interface of Color? Are the color correctors in Final Cut just not cutting it? Then this class may be for you. This class works from the ground up as you learn how to send files from Final Cut to Color (and back), how to use the Color interface and its many rooms, the basics of color balancing and correction using the waveforms and vectorscopes, shot matching, keying, motion tracking, and more. After grasping the basics in the first two classes, the last class will be spent working on personal projects and applying your new knowledge. Basic knowledge of Final Cut Pro required. Class limit 8.
