Color Correction with 16mm Film
Hello
I am completely stuck.
Using one effect; two effects - and a variety of color correction tools experimenting with a very old 16mm film using Premiere CS6 I was able to create a barely usable correction.
To start I used a reference monitor with RGB Parade.
I then adjusted using Brightness and Contrast.
From there I attempted to use one tool then another in concert - or just one tool. In short I used the Fast Color Corrector (white balance, sliding bar and so forth). If that failed to deliver the expected affect I than used the Three Way Color Corrector. With both of these tools I achieved a result less than desirable.
I also used in concert, or independent of, other tools -the Color Balance (RGB), Pro Amp, Channel Mixer.
I was unable to achieve a color correction that would yield a film with improved color.
This short segment link inserted here is a sample of the film. The gentleman is wearing a pink coat. Whatever I did using the pink coat as reference failed to change this segment to useful colors.
What tools are best to achieve a color correction so that this film plays as it was intended - in color.
Let me know what I can do to improve my learning curve.
Thanks!
