  • @bobbybrown8167
    @bobbybrown8167 2 роки тому

    Interesting how the a and b channels align very closely to tint and temperature in white balance. Tint, from green to magenta, is the same color range as the a channel. But temperature differs from the b channel only slightly. instead of orange to azure, its turned one color counterclockwise on the color wheel to yellow to blue. I wonder why that is? if Lab uses yellow and blue why doesn't temperature go from yellow to blue instead of orange to azure? Thank you so much by the way! I'm a colorblind artist (deuteranomaly) and all around art nerd this technical stuff is exactly what I'm looking for!

    Why did the color turn red when you crank down the b channel? Shouldnt it be a dark yellow, AKA "muddy green"?

    • @chrisswift4303
      @chrisswift4303 3 роки тому

      In a standard HSB framework, you have Hue (color), Saturation (how strong the color is), and Brightness (how much the color goes to dark or light). So "brightness" would be a preferable term to use. "Whiteness" is not a thing; neither is "lightness".

      Not sure but just as a guess I'd try selecting both and then right click to see if any options come up. Another idea is to select both and then just tediously go through the menu bar options at the top. Good luck. Let know how it goes

We will show your video to the club members with interest. Is there any way we can get a good jpg copy of the charts? Also, I am going through your videos on this subject and am blown away with the easy results. Thank you

    I know this is like 5 years ago, but I can't find anything on this topic. And I didn't know it's call "slipping", probably why I can't find it. But I think for many FCPX video, especially those beginner tutorials, this function should be included.

  • @cinema8564

    Many thanks for this very helpful tutorial. So helpful because few tutorials articulate well the details of HOW STUFF WORKS!!! Drives me nuts sometimes--for example, other tutorials on this subject--to hear verbal descriptions that are little better than jiberish. Seriously, you speak deliberately, clearly and with some precision. Others, not so much. Reminds me also of Simon Ubsdell who is a video colorist with many excellent tutorials, with one on the Fusion Custom Tool, (ua-cam.com/video/01RZ2m6U7aI/v-deo.html) in which he, as you do here, describes it as possibly the most powerful tool in Fusion but one which few people seem to be familiar. This tool, like your description of the Color Mixer tool, deals with the actual numbers that control and comprise the image look. And when one has even a little understanding of the concepts, which your tutorial helps to impart, one's ability to SEE the effect in one's mind's eye increases--even before one makes the adjustment. And so one has at least a guess as to what likely needs to be done. And one can more confidently approach an image because there is some understanding of just HOW STUFF WORKS. Thanks again, so much!!! Mike
