Hi, I'm currently working on touching up a company's old videos. Some of them are worse than others. I have some experience with color correction and salvaging badly shot video, but I was hoping to receive some additional advice.
Below is a portion of a screenshot. As you see, it has a greenish tint, looks too soft (possibly mildly out of focus?) and has general exposure problems. No color correcting has been added in this screenshot, this is the out-of-camera look:
I've tinkered with the footage to the best of my abilities, and while I was able to salvage the exposure, I've been totally unsuccessful at correcting the tint. I'm using Final Cut Pro 7. Any advice is welcome, including suggestions for problems I may have not touched on.
They realize this footage can't be perfected, but significant improvements would be nice!
