Adjusting Color/Brightness (Color Correction)
Using NewBlue Chroma Key Pro in EDIUS 7 or EDIUS 8 (real-time playback with full buffer of 1920x1080 keys with Quadro K4000) 1. In NewBlue Elements3 Ultimate, drag Chroma Key Pro to clip on timeline or to the information palette of the clip or the clip itself and then drag it above the Layouter.
You can adjust the color tone to match the previous/next video, or adjust the brightness by correcting color cast, highlight detail loss, and shadow detail loss. The following filters are provided for color correction.
[3-Way Color Correction]
Correct colors for shadow (black), intermediate (gray), and highlight (white).
[YUV Curve]
Adjust luminance (Y), blue color difference (U), and red color difference (V) on the chart. You can make a fine adjustment to balance the shadow and highlight.
Keys can be added for the YUV curve but interpolation animation between keys is not available.
[Color Balance]
Adjust chroma, luminance, contrast, and color tone with the slider.
[Color Wheel]
Move the pointer to adjust the color density, or rotate the wheel to adjust the color tone.

Adjusting Primary Color Correction
You can adjust the brightness and color by applying color grading on a clip shot in the Log format.
[Primary Color Correction] has predefined color space profiles that support Log formats for each of the camera manufacturers.
When a clip is recognized by its metadata as a Log file, [Primary Color Correction] filter will automatically select an optimal color space and adjust the brightness and colors.
You can also select the color space manually.
Alternatively, you can register LUT files (*.cube) to [Primary Color Correction] and apply to clips.
You can obtain preferred brightness and colors by fine adjusting the parameters.

What is Log?
Log is a shooting format that can maintain wide dynamic range.
For videos shot in the Log format, color grading is essential. By performing color grading on a shot video with lower contrast, wider color tone range can be realized to reproduce realistic images that are closer to what it actually looks like.
Even under conditions where highlight/shadow detail loss is likely to occur, shooting in the Log format will help in correcting the details later without deteriorating the image quality.
What is LUT?
LUT (Look Up Table) is a standard profile for color space conversion. You can apply it to adjust the brightness and color on video shot in the Log format.
Adjusting with [Primary Color Correction]
To adjust the brightness and colors of a source shot in the Log format (S-Log source)
Preparation
Create a project (QFHD 3840x2160 29.97p, 10 -bit).
Import the S-Log source file in the source browser, register it to the bin, and place the clip on the timeline.
1) In the folder view of the [Effect] palette, click the [Effect] tree.
2) Click the [VideoFilters] tree, and click [Color Correction].
A list of [Color Correction] effects is displayed in the effect view.
3) Drag and drop [Primary Color Correction] to the clip (video part) on the timeline.
Clips with the [Primary Color Correction] effect applied (video part) are displayed with an orange line.
When a clip is recognized as a Log file, an optimal color space will be applied automatically to adjust the brightness and color. You can view the result of the applied color space in the preview window.
If a color space has not been applied automatically, you can open the [Primary Color Correction] dialog box to apply a color space manually. To apply a color space manually or finely adjust the brightness and colors, proceed to step 4) .
4) Display the [Information] palette, and double-click [Primary Color Correction].
The [Primary Color Correction] dialog box appears.
5) Click the list button of [Source] in [Color Space] and select a color space that is optimal for the source shot in the Log format.
If the color space was selected automatically, this operation is not necessary.
6) While viewing the video in the preview window, make fine adjustment to the parameters.
7) Click [OK].
The [Primary Color Correction] dialog box is closed.
If real time playback is not possible after [Primary Color Correction] is applied, right-click on a clip and click [Render] to perform rendering to the clip.
The rendered clip will maintain the rendered status even after being moved.
(If an effect is readjusted or added, rendering is required again.)

[Base] Enable settings for color space conversion format. Free robux only username and email.
[HDR/SDR Gain] Set the gain value to be applied when the color space of either HDR or SDR is converted to/from the other. In some conditions, the brightness of the reference white of HDR may differ from that of SDR. In this case, a video converted from HDR to SDR will appear brighter, and that converted from SDR to HDR will appear darker. Setting [HDR/SDR Gain] will apply the gain value when the color space of either HDR or SDR is converted to/from the other, preventing the variation in brightness. Set the gain value to the conversion value for the display light. Select an item from [Disable], [Current project setting], [0.00 dB], [3.00 dB], [6.00 dB], [6.15 dB], [9.00 dB] and [12.00 dB]. Select [6.15 dB] to comply with ITU-R BT.2408. The content in [Current project setting] will be determined in accordance with the [HDR/SDR gain] setting in the project settings. You can also directly enter a value (unit: dB) within a range from “0.00” to “20.00”.
[Tone mapping] This setting is applied to conversion in which the dynamic range of the color space gets smaller, such as when a HDR source is used as SDR. Setting [Disable] will not apply the tone mapping. Areas with brightness that exceeds the luminance range of SDR will be replaced to 100% white. Setting [Soft Clip] will compress the high-luminance areas to show smooth gradation so that they will not be clipped easily. The content in [Current project setting] will be determined in accordance with the [Tone mapping] setting in the project settings.

Example When [Primary Color Correction] is Applied
Reproducing Clouds Where Highlight Detail Loss Has Occurred
For landscape shooting, “highlight detail loss” may cause the blue sky to appear in all white or the clouds and distant mountains to be merged with each other.
Standard shooting format has limited dynamic range compared to that of the Log format. With an improper exposure setting, highlight detail loss occurs, causing the color tones exceeding the upper limit of the dynamic range to be lost and all replaced by white.
Thus, video shot in the standard format may not be able to reproduce the realistic image quality of material texture, etc. even if applying post-shooting color corrections, because the light condition is adjusted and recorded at the time of shooting.
The Log format has wider dynamic range and enables recording of the range for the tone of light that could normally be recorded as white in the standard shooting. By performing color grading on a Log source, the color tone of areas where highlight details have been lost can be reproduced and video with realistic details like film images can be obtained.
The following procedure shows an example of primary color correction.
1) Perform steps 1) to 5) in Adjusting with [Primary Color Correction] .
2) Click [Toggle Videoscope Display] on the timeline.
The [Videoscope] dialog box appears.
3) While viewing the waveform, adjust [Gain] in the [Primary Color Correction] dialog box in the minus direction.
While locking the shadow area, adjust the brightness of the highlight areas.
4) In [Curve], drag the second point from the upper right to finely adjust the brightness of the highlight area.

Adjusting the Brightness of a Person Where Shadow Detail Loss Has Occurred Due to Backlight
When shot with sunset or light in the background, the image of a person in the video may be dark because of the backlight, resulting in “shadow detail loss”. In the same way as “highlight detail loss”, post-shooting color correction of such a video may not be possible as intended.
If the source is shot in the Log format, the color tone of areas where shadow details have been lost can be reproduced by performing color grading.
