Color Correction Help

You can do some color correction in photoshop. (yes you can put videos in photoshop). Use the color balace tools, and I think there's a whole panel just for color correction.
Also the color levels tool.

Call me outdated but I'm a sucker for warm skin tones and cooler environment.

I'm a sucker for low key analogous color palettes in the blue/cyan range.

Your computer better have all the ram of the known universe combined before doing that.

Color correction is all about trying to match all your shots at a neutral level. if you shot on two different days or used two different cameras or even different settings then you will have to color correct. It is far easier if you aim for a flat profile and focus on mainly exposures and temperatures, try and avoid changing the hue/saturation if you can.

For the grade it is all dependant on the mood of the video, i find it is always harder with skiing videos because there is always so much white in the image it is hard to push the grade because you will lose the whites.

My favourite examples of graded ski footage are any of Orage's latest edits and any of Under Armours edits, Bobby Brown's 'One Run' had awesome grading and the 'Border Patrol' is usually sick too.

Also washed out and desaturated footage can look dope if used properly and done well.

This is my favourite piece of advice I've ever read in M&A.

Related: My friend asked me to cut a single frame out of a video and do some photoshop-y things with it. The first thing I did was PS -> import frames as layers -> video. Didn't even check how long it was, I just assumed he was sending me a few seconds of phone footage. I may well have been high.

It turned out to be 20 seconds of 240 fps 720p (4800 frames). My computer (macbook pro, a mere 8 GB of RAM) said no.
