Color Grading Master Class

This long and in-depth master class on Coloring film footage takes us through the entire process and principles of coloring and grading footage. Not so much about the programs used but much more about why things are done the way they are in grading. This is an expert tutorial by Stu Maschwitz for Red Giant and is wonderfully in depth and involved, if you want to fully understand color then this is perfect!
