Possibly no recent software release has caused as much simultaneous excitement and confusion as when Color was released as part of Final Cut Studio 2.

Its interface is totally unlike any of the other Studio applications. Its hardware requirements are equally outlandish. But, oh, the results it can achieve if you know what you are doing.

And no one knows Color better than Alexis Van Hurkman. In addition to writing two books on the topic, Alexis earns his living as an award-winning colorist. In the two chapters in this section, Alexis looks at the hardware requirements to run Color and how to prepare your Final Cut Pro projects for Color.

Then, he explains how to improve the contrast and exposure of your images, and concludes by showing how to color correct your images using Color.

It is an amazing tour-de-force that will help you jump-start your success with this amazing application.
