 Video 1 Trimmed Video (First Draft)

Using the technique learnt in class to adjust the exposure, contrast, highlights, shadow, whites and blacks to match all the videos with one standards while referencing to the lumetri scopes.

Video 2 Basic Correction done on video

Colour Correction

Tools: Adjustment Layer + Colour Adjustment

We are required to match the colour of the video to the image below by editing on the adjustment layer over all videos. One thing to add on is that I realized the colour does not look natural when it is exactly the same with the reference image. Hence, I applied "soft light" blending mode and lowered the opacity to make the videos look more naturally while maintaining the characteristics from the reference.
