Specific Color Correction In Vegas 5

producer

Well-known member
Hello everybody!
Would somebody describe step-by-step how to adjust the color settings in Vegas 5 so that to get this:
I want to edit the colors in a video footage, but I dont know exactly how to do that. I used Vegas Color Correctors, 6 Color Corrector too, but the results don't make me glad.
So, I will try to be understandable as more as I can:

I want to change the green color to become different kind of green. For that purpose I changed the hue, saturation, even the mix of red or blue in green. Ok, but all other colors in the video become changed together with the adjustment for green - red becomes blueish, greenish or yellowish, etc...
So, how to change every color in a video SEPARATELY without affecting the other colors??? I tried with Secondary Color Corrector applying it on 3 video tracks /copies of the original video track/, but I just don't know how to adjust the compositing and parent or child modes /if nesessary/. You see that I am confused and not so knowledged about this in Vegas 5.
The reason:
I use a DV cam which shoots in excellent quality at all. But everybody who uses the same equipment knows that there is a big-big color difference between a dv cam and a film on dvd /some Hollywood film production, for example/. I tried so many film looks by Magic Bullet and Ultimate S. I don't wanna say a bad word, oh my God, but I realize that nor Magic Bullet, nor Ultimate S can reach the film color quality of a film production, even 50% at least! Am I right or not???
Please for step-by-step explanations, even examples about this matter, because I am really helpless.
Thanks in advance!!!
 
I DON'T KNOW; I HAVE SEEN SOME WORK DONE IN POST WHEREAS YOU WOULD SWEAR IT WAS FILM. (Oops, sorry CAPS)

Can you provide a GRAB in which to work with and possible another grab of what you are looking for? I'd love to 'Play around' with one.
