White balance

I have some footage where the white balance is off. How do I get rid of YELOW?

Have you tried the 3 way color corrector?

I was hoping that someone would have a magic potion an save me a lot of work. In so many words I was to lazy.

Looking at the waveform monitor you may see that the disply is not centered.You can use the u&v in the YUV filter to nudge back into the center as another way of correcting the colour.

You could try this free download from NewBlue:

You will have to find the tool that works best for you in that situation. All the correctors have their good and bad points. In the 3 way one the centre adjuster adds colour to a black and white image (ie one with the colour turned down) and sometimes you can fix yellow in a full colour image by adding some blue, but you have to look carefully to make sure nothing else goes an odd colour.

You can also use the 3 way filter in selective colour mode (Hue) and select the colour you want to change from the slider, if the rest of the image is ok.

i downloaded the newblue color corrector, but can't find it in EDIUS or as a stand alone. any clues as to how to get it working?

You did it also install after download?
Then the NB-effect should be seen in the effect palette (under NewBlue...)
(I had no problem with the installation)

Hi Tobe:

I have to correct me: I had installed NBcolorcorrector some times ago into E7.5 and from there the plugin copied into the E8-Pluginfolder (where it works).
When trying to install NBelements (trial) under E8 this didnt work and NB says it will need some weeks until a new NB-E8-Installer will be ready!

So it could be that the NBcolorcorrector falls under the same restriction .
Regards kurt

Maybe it's me...I downloaded, installed and tried to register...shows up as an effect but with cross hatch as if it were a trial...will try again and if not, reach out to New Blue. I though it was a free app...maybe not?
Thanks for the comments...this is on an E7 system.

I think if you color correct the tools in EDIUS are better. They work in 10 bit while the New Blue plug-ins only work at 8-bit in EDIUS.

If your acquisition is 10-bit it makes more sense to stay in 10 or grade in a higher color depth. Even 8 bit footage will benefit in a 10-bit grade.

But feel free to use the NB color corrector. Just added a piece of info which can be important to some. :)

Sorry for not responding sooner. I did not think that anyone would respond since I admitted being lazy. Thank you Anton. Clicking Grey works miracles.
I almost delivered the project with bad colors. Thanks to everyone for your advice. Just shows me that I have so much more to learn.

I always filmed a 5 seconds (right in the beginning of any recording) my Spyder CheckR 24 card - as a matter of habit. Never had an issue with colour correction again.
