CrewDesk/Glossary/Color grading
Color grading is the process of adjusting the color and contrast of a film after the edit to create its final look and to make every shot match.
One click, no account. The demo is filled with sample productions and rebuilt every day.
A colorist first corrects each shot so that skin tones and exposure are consistent, then applies the look chosen with the director and the director of photography. The grade is done on a calibrated monitor, and separate versions may be made for cinema, television and the web.
