Three-Way Color Corrector effect
The Three-Way Color Corrector effect lets you make subtle corrections by adjusting a clip’s hue, saturation, and
brightness for the shadow, midtones, and highlights. The effect has a histogram that displays the image’s luminance.
You can further refine your adjustments by specifying the color range to be corrected by using the Secondary Color
Correction controls.
The Three-Way Color Corrector effect has the following controls:
Output
Lets you view adjustments in the Program monitor as the final results (Composite), tonal value adjustments
(Luma), display of the alpha matte (Mask), or a tri-tone representation of the shadows, midtones and highlights
(Tonal Range).
Show Split View
Displays one part of the image as the corrected view and the other part of the image as the uncor-
rected view.
Layout
Determines whether the Split View images are side by side (Horizontal) or above and below (Vertical).
Split View Percentage
Adjusts the size of the corrected view. The default is 50%.
Black Balance, Gray Balance, White Balance
Assigns a black, midtone gray, or white balance to a clip. Use the
different Eyedropper tools to sample a target color in the image, or choosing a color from the Adobe Color Picker.
Tonal Range Definition
Defines the tonal range of the shadows, midtones, and highlights in a clip. Drag the square
sliders to adjust the threshold values. Drag the triangle sliders to adjust the amount of softness (feathering).
Choose Tonal Range from the Output pop-up menu to view the highlights, midtones, and shadows as you adjust the
Tonal Range Definition controls.
Shadow Threshold, Shadow Softness, Highlight Threshold, Highlight Softness
Determine the threshold and
softness of the shadows, midtones, and highlights in a clip. Enter values or click the triangle next to the option name
and drag the slider.
Tonal Range
Chooses the tonal range adjusted by the Hue Angle, Balance Magnitude, Balance Gain, Balance Angle,
Saturation, and Levels controls. Highlights is the default. Other options in the pop-up menu are Master, Shadows,
and Midtones.
Note:
You can still adjust all three tonal ranges using the three color wheels even after you choose from the Tonal Range
pop-up menu.
Three-Way Hue Balance and Angle
Controls hue and saturation adjustments using three color wheels for the
shadows (left wheel), midtones (middle wheel), and highlights (right wheel). A single master wheel appears when
Master is chosen from the Tonal Range pop-up menu. A circular thumb moves about the center of the wheel and
controls the hue (UV) translation. A perpendicular handle on the thumb controls the balance magnitude, which
affects the relative coarseness or fineness of the control. The outer ring of the wheel controls hue rotation.
