ABSTRACT
Vegas has many color-correction tools capable of repairing even the most difficult footage with greatly improved result. The color-correction tools found in Vegas provide the ability to set apart colors or a range of colors and to command isolated colors to suit emotional, artistic, accurate, or whimsical expressions. A histogram also provides a very fast way to view illegal colors. Illegal colors are usually created by inserting text, adding color-altering filters, or using improper color correction. Using the Primary Color Corrector tool, highlights and color can be brought out while maintaining warmth and personality. In this example, the face tones, the green in the trees, and the red in the bunting can be brought out, which will make for a warm and interesting image. Color-correction tools can also be used for artistic expression, creating certain moods and emotions that cannot be obtained with lighting or camera lens filters in a low- to mid-budget project.
