there is so much you can say with each image but how do you make the most out of it? we often talk about layers in a film and color is a powerful storytelling tool that can completely change the look and feel of a piece. in this tutorial we look at color in camera as we go through white balance, white shift, picture styles along with some tips and tricks on how to use them to say something with your image straight out of the camera.
there is so much to say about color so we decided to split it up into two tutorials, in camera and in post. all footage shown in this tutorial is straight out of the camera with no post color work. check back soon for part two of the color tutorial, color in post, later this month.

This is such a good tut, really appreciate you doing this! 🙂
Great info! thanks for posting such great tutorials! would you guys consider talking about properly calibrating screens and what displays would be best for editing on? would also love to see a tutorial on your philosophy of editing – and workflow of editing.
thanks again for sharing you wealth of knowledge.
