16 Still Store
The Still Store provides an interface with which to compare
shots to one another while you do scene-to-scene color
correction.
Using the Still Store interface, you can save images from different shots in a project to
use as reference stills for comparison to shots you’re correcting to match. This is a
common operation in scene-to-scene color correction, when you’re balancing all of the
shots in a scene to match the exposure and color of one another, so they all look as if
they were shot at the same place, at the same time.
Using the Still Store, you can save reference stills from any shot in your project, for
comparison to any other shot. That means if you’re working on a documentary where a
particular style of headshot is interspersed throughout the program, you can save a
reference still of the graded master headshot, and recall it for comparison to every
other headshot in the program.

Saving Images to the Still Store
To use the Still Store, you must first save one or more images for later recall.
To add an image to the Still Store:
1 Move the playhead to a frame you want to save to the Still Store.
You should choose a graded image that contains the subjects you need to compare,
and that is representative of the lighting and color you’re trying to match.
