About
This is a two-week course, with week one focused on learning the application and week two on practical workflows. First, we will learn all the intricate details of Colourlab Ai, and in the second week, we will cover advanced techniques and tricks using the latest version of Colourlab.
Students are encouraged to bring their own material so the instructor and the students can grade and discuss the different formats and the challenges they bring. This is an advanced class that looks at color correction in general and how Colourlab fits into different workflows..
This new class is designed around several short practical projects that cover the most common grading scenarios: a commercial, music video, VLOG and a short movie. We will work through the project from start to finish, using Colourlab Ai and learn general colorist strategies to finish the job. You will be able to keep the media project and stills, which is a great way to continue your learning.
An annual Colourlab Ai license is included in the price, and if you already own Colourlab Ai, the class is free of charge.
Reserve your place now, as the number of students is limited.
