Image Color

[James McClain]

We were shooting in really bright sunlight with ND filters. The first picture is how it was was brought into redcine x. the second is after a white balance. The shirt should be dark blue as you can see in the third picture. No matter what settings i change in redcine x, i cant get the color right. Why is color off?

Bright sun + ND filters. This is THE time to be using a Hot Mirror filter, and it looks like that's the problem - the IR spectrum is polluting the color of his shirt. Secondary color correction is probably your best option if you want to return that shirt to some shade of blue.

what if he used a TRU-CUT IR-750 with nd filters will that do the same
