AutoDesk Smoke :: Color Correcting Highlights
Feb 28, 2012
Is it possible to just simply work with the highlights in a shot (for example boosting the gain), without having to work with selective, or masks, and without changing the color? Cause there is the 'wheel' for highlights, but as soon, as you turn it in one direction, you start to change the color.

When keying a shot over a background I find that if I then want to colour grade the foreground that it affects the quality of the key as it's obviously applying the colour change before the key.
I would colour grade first but that doesn't suit the workflow the director wants to use.

what is still missing in smoke is having the color wheel while picking a color. The color wheel will enable us to pick any color straight from the wheel , it's much faster rather than trying to mix the desired color using RGB combination. it will be cool to see this feature in next release.

Whenever i use CC soft Fx for a clip, Smoke only processes either CC or CW changes but not both. Why does this happen? And if this is the regular workflow then what can i do , when i have a clip on timeline which need CC and CW both together.

I'm conforming a sequence - importing RED files - then exporting that sequence for color. When importing the RED files, what color setting should I use? Camera, user etc? If user then what other options should I use knowing that I'll export a dpx sequence for color?

Exporting to H.264 while preserving your color correction. I have not found anything definitive that addresses this issue. I'm bringing it up here as I do a lot of web delivery in H.264 and am tired of the color/gamma shift.

In 2012 it was very easy to select a gap segment and click color source in the soft effects. In 2013 it appears to be much more difficult, you need to create it in a folder then edit it into a sequence. Am I missing something? I wish there was a color source option in the effects ribbon.

I have found a thread about exporting and/or publishing an edl to import into Resolve for color-grading and then back to conform in Smoke for output. Is there a detailed video on the Smoke Learning Channel yet.

I was wondering if there was an easy way to view individual color channels (Red, Green, Blue) in the viewer, and if so what the shortcuts are. I know you can do this simply in flame but can't seem to find a way to do it in Smoke.

I cut out the sky in the top layer of the timeline and the sky still beneath it is showing through. I need to color match the two shots. How can I see both shots in the CC effect so I can match the two?

a) is it possible to change the default font that gets activated for a project or sequence? Every time we add a title it defaults to "Discreet" - it would be good if it learns from past changes at least for the sequence.
b) it would be good if the default font color changes to a color that contrasts with the background when starting to type. E.g. we had a rather white scene, started typing and no text ever showed up. I then had to go back to the full text editor, change the color etc.
c) moving the color sliders in the color selector manually without a Wacom seems to slow by default. It takes forever to move to a brighter color. And using the picker is cumbersome (we do that as a work-around instead of moving the slider). The OK button for the color sliders is not very visible, sometimes leading to us clicking away without saving the newly selected color by accident.

it seems to be a bit messy. I set it to F10 like in 2012 and the small popup box with the color picker doesnt seem to pop up proper. Something blinks on the top right corner and disappears. Same goes for colorbar. Any workaround or fix for this one?

I've noticed that when I drop a CC on a clip in the timeline with AutoKey turned off, if I adjust a paramater a keyframe is still added. But, if I enter the module, no keyframe is added. Also, if I enter the module and exit back out, no keyframe is added adjusting paramaters.

what is a better tool?
A Colour Correct
B Colour Warper
Are both capable of delivering the same result? Is the underlying tech the same on both and its only a matter of UI?

I am having issues with the color warper in Autodesk Smoke Prerelease 6. As soon as you change any values (ie changing the saturation to 99.9%) in the color warper the image glitches out and you see weird inverted colours and other artifacts. It is completely unusable.
The workstation I am currently using is a 12 Core Mac Pro 5,1, 16GB Ram, GTX285.
I do not have the issue with the latest version Smoke 2012.

How do I display just the current shot in Color Corrector Page time line, not whole sequence ?
Screen grab shows I am parked on a shot in Colour Warper but timeline shows whole 6 minute sequence rather than the shot I am working on.

My director friend has seen me color correct images in LR with grace and skill, and wants me to start doing color correction for his films. I have never used Final Cut Pro before, and wondered if the controls in Final Cut were similar to LR, if you could export and import between the two, and generally what the difference was between working with color in each. He has one of the RED cameras, which shoots in RAW, so I assume the different can't be too great.

Not sure if ths is the right place to post this...or this forum is just for tech questions. But the Mac guys told me to come over here... because, uh, there's nobody there.
I need some design advice / inspiration. I have an intermediate knowledge of photoshop...just limited talent! (I can do layers, do masking, and some other stuff)
I have a 70-yr old B&W photo of my Mom from when she was just 3 or 4. For a 4x6 party invitation I would like to add some subtle Tiffany-blue turquoise highlights to the picture. (maybe make the bow Tiffany blue, part of the dress, a border....this is where I need the inspiration).

I learned from Scott Kelby's book on a technique to remove color cast.
What is the difference between color cast and correcting white balance?

I tried following Scott Kelby's instructions for color correcting digital images in PSE 10. I was entering the values he gave for the R,G and Blue channels. I got off track and probably missed a step. Anyway, now when I try any of the auto correction features, my images look like film negatives and not like a regular digital image. How can I re-enable the auto correction features (levels, color correction, etc.) ?

New to PSP and I took some night time photos of a car using long exposure, the pictures are clear and focused but they have that yellow-orange street light tint to them. Is there an easy way in PSP X6 to get rid of that color cast?
I'm shooting in RAW in Large with a Nikon D5100 if that matters for this. I'm not bothered how I output it as up to now I've just experimented on screen. No error codes yet!
