ABSTRACT

The Color Correction effect category contains more effects than any other single category in all of After Effects-26, to be exact. While that isn’t really an indicator of importance, it just so happens that these effects might be the most important in After Effects. I say that because all workfl ows use color, and, therefore, can utilize color tools. The compositor might never need The Fractal Noise effect. The text animator may never fi nd a use for the Color Difference Key effect. But, they both still use color, and will more than likely need to use tools for adjusting color often. The effects in this category change colors, remove colors, isolate colors, colorize footage, bring colors into compliance with a video standard, and almost any other color-related task you can think of.
