I've ran into a dilemma...

I did a two camera shoot using my XHA1's. I was operating one camera while my cousin was operating the other. We don't have any external monitors and resorted to using the cameras LCD and everything looked fine. Once I captured the videos in Premiere, I noticed his image has a bit of a red hue while my colors look fine. Is there any way to fix this in Premiere? I don't mean a total image restoration, but something that could somewhat fix the red hue and make the image match mine as best as possible?
 
I'm going to guess that the color temperature was different...

In Premiere if you look under Effect/video effects/Color Correction/Three Way Color Correction you'll see a tool for adjusting the white balance.

Give that a try.

After I reviewed the footage again, the white balance was fine halfway through the concert and then it went out of whack. I'm not at home right now, but if I play around with the effects you mentioned, how well should it work?
 
It will no doubt be tricky to get the footage identical, in addition to the WB recomendation, try boosting the blues in colour correction too.
 
It was a bit tricky but I managed to make it look a whole lot better. I have now encountered another issue. On our wide shots, a lot of the kids faces are blown out and look overexposed from the lighting and as a result, they look a bit washed out. Is there any way to fix this as well? I'd imagine this one would be a lot trickier to fix since when it comes to lighting, what you see is what you get.
