Hello boys and girls.

Here I go again with quetstion.

I have got problem with color correction. On set I had 4 cameras but they were not the same model.

Here are attached two pictures and I have to do CC.

PICTURE 1 is beutifull

PICTRUE 2 is bad, I want it to be comparable/simmilar to PIC 1.

If I correct colors in Adobe premiere cs4 (fast color corrector), I cant correct picture well.

Problem is very simple but hard to me. I dont know how to correct only one part of picture --> how can I add/take off only color to repair ONLY HIS BLUE PULLOVER ?

Help me please. Which effect in Premiere is the best for this correction ?

THANKS and best regadrs from Slovenia.

IIRC, there was a really great tutorial posted here in this very forum a couple of months ago that showed how to do just that. Do a search or scroll back a few pages and I think you'll find it.

Edit: Found it: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/adobe-evan...lor-corrector/

from this thread:

Yet another reason to make sure our threads are named accurately.

To my eye, it's not just the sweater, but his face has too much blue as well in shot #2.
It's like maybe the white balance was not matched on the two cameras.
Might be worth a try to raise the color temp of the second shot in post & see if they don't match better.
