13-09-2015 | 3.2 GB
Ever hear the refrain "let's just fix it in post"? Even under the best lighting conditions, your footage can have exposure problems. Luckily, you can correct issues and even improve average video after the fact, aka in post production, with Premiere Pro. Rich Harrington explores various methods for fixing exposure problems: using effects, adjustment layers, toning, blend modes, and more. For more complicated footage problems or an extra boost, Rich shows you how to use the more advanced specialized tools in After Effects. Note that these techniques are designed for the Creative Cloud, but most of will work in older versions of the programs.
