Use hue and saturation curves in Final Cut Pro
The six hue and saturation curves provide the maximum control and precision for color
correcting your projects. You can adjust the hue, saturation, and brightness of any color in
your project. Additionally, you can adjust the saturation for a range of brightness or a range
of saturation in a clip. You can also adjust the saturation of a specific color at any point in
its range of brightness.
First you add the Hue/Saturation Curves color correction effect to the clip, and then you
adjust its settings in the Color inspector.
To provide objective, precise information as you color correct a clip, use the video scopes
and other video measurement tools (see Intro to measuring video in Final Cut Pro).
You can create a custom workspace layout for color correction or switch to the predefined
Color & Effects layout (see
Change the workspace layout in Final Cut Pro).
