Color Correction vs Color Grading

Color correction is the process of adjusting hue, saturation, brightness and white balance to make footage look consistent. Color grading is an artistic process to create a mood or style.

Color Correction

  • Corrects the color and contrast of a shot so that it looks true to life and measures correctly
  • Can adjust exposure
  • Can make footage less flat
  • Can correct a color balance issue
  • Can increase saturation
  • Can establish accuracy: make sure things in the frame and shown as they really are
  • Accuracy is especially important for skin tone
  • Can bring proper focus to elements within a frame
  • Makes sure that each shot goes with other shots from the same scene


Color Grading

  • Adds a visual palette that stylizes the image beyond correction, often providing a specific tone or emotion
  • Helps inform the audience’s perception of a scene
  • Emphasizes different climates, locations, moods, characters, and plot
