Color grading has been the filmmaking world's biggest kept secret.

How do you subtly shift your colors so they transport us even further into your story?

How can color grading transform your footage into a work of art?

While there are many courses out there that teach you how to use color grading software, there are no courses out there that address comprehensively the creative and streamlined process for professional color grading. 

This course shows you how, addressing both the art and science of color grading for filmmaking. The course is divided into three parts: seeing color, using color for storytelling, and implementing a technical 5 step process to translate your vision into reality with Adobe Premiere Pro Lumetri Color. 

By the end of this course, you will have all the knowledge and a complete roadmap needed to develop your color grading sensibility and implement a look into your film.
