COLOR CORRECT 'em

[Guest]

Doing a project in FCP 4.

I have an interior scene involving 4 angles
on a particular actor---the scene came out of the camera a little yellowy, so I did a simple
color correction using the 3 way color corrector
filter ( eyedropper'd the white door in the scene to set the highlights, and the black bars to set the blacks)

the scene color corrected beautifully, EXCEPT
3 of the 4 angles match and 1 is noticeably
off ----(NOTE: I maintained the same filter settings for all 4)

What's the simplest way to get the odd one's
colors in the line with the other 3?

Use the video scopes :)

Sorry for such a short answer, but I can't stick around to write out an explanation. Just check your manual for what each of the video scopes do and go from there.

Good luck!

I would agree. Using the scopes is going to be the most accurate way to get them all to match. Without having your project in front of me, it's kind of hard to tell what exactly to do. Sorry, it sounds like manual time. Jerry Hofmann's book on FCP4 is a great resource if you're looking for one.
