How to create layers and colour grade drone footage

Question 1

How to apply an adjustment layer

Answer 1

Choose a project > click new item > the adjustment layer should appear in your project bin. You can stretch out your adjustment layer to cover both clips. Go to effects controls

Question 2

Look at your adjustment layer like a bucket

Answer 2

All of your effects and goodness go in here

Question 3

What effects can you add to your adjustment layer?

Answer 3

Everything under your adjustment layer is going to apply to both of your clips.

Click on adjustment layer, then go to effects. You can change brightness and contrast in here for example. It looks like the effects channel could be accessed by using one of the bin dropdowns but I can’t see for sure. Just look out for effects.

Question 4

How to colour grade footage

Answer 4

Brad recommends using a lut for this, but I feel that they can get a bit over the top.

Add adjustment layers to each of your clips, then go ahead and choose a lut to put on your video. Brad suggests that you go to creative in the Lumatri Colour panel instead of just doing it in basic adjustments.
