These new tools allow users to perform selective color grading via the hue, saturation, and luminance values of your image.\u00a0You can call them the VS curves, HSL curves, or selective grading tools; whatever you call them, they provide a lot of versatility when it comes to color correction.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s take a closer look.<\/p>\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/rSz2cLVcFUw?version=3&amp;rel=1&amp;showsearch=0&amp;showinfo=1&amp;iv_load_policy=1&amp;fs=1&amp;hl=en-US&amp;autohide=2&amp;wmode=transparent\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3><b>The New Curve Tools<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Video Tutorial: Introducing Premiere\u2019s New Lumetri Curves \u2014 New Curve Tools\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/replace\/9d457bc33df3e204fc2dca1782c547de.png\" alt=\"Video Tutorial: Introducing Premiere\u2019s New Lumetri Curves \u2014 New Curve Tools\" \/><\/p>\n<p>To find the new curves, go to the Lumetri Color panel and select the Curves tab, and then open Hue Saturation Curves. These new curve tools can perform overall adjustments to the hue, the saturation, or the luminance based on either the hue or luminance values you select. In case you need a quick refresher, the hue is the color, the saturation is the intensity of the color, and the luminance is the brightness value.<\/p>\n<p>Each curve pairs two properties together: one mapped horizontally and one vertically. The first attribute is what you\u2019re selecting, the second attribute is what you are affecting. Essentially, the first value adjusts the second. You\u2019ll find five new Curves tools, including the following:<\/p>\n<h3><b>How the Tools Work<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Video Tutorial: Introducing Premiere\u2019s New Lumetri Curves \u2014 How the Tools Work\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/replace\/0a78e9a04b5e555b6363427ebe8e673f.jpeg\" alt=\"Video Tutorial: Introducing Premiere\u2019s New Lumetri Curves \u2014 How the Tools Work\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Manually select colors by clicking on the horizontal curve line, or use the color picker tool. Using the color picker will automatically set three points on the curve, with the selected color point in the middle of the three points. If the selection isn\u2019t perfect, you can manually adjust the points as needed. The key to using these curves is to make very subtle adjustments to the image. Pushing things too far can make some images fall apart very quickly.<\/p>\n<p>The first three Curves tools give you a preview via a vertical bar when you select and hold a point on the curve. For example, when using the Hue vs. Saturation curve, you\u2019ll see the vertical bar previewing the saturation levels. Highly saturated values are at the top, with desaturated values at the bottom. For Hue vs. Hue, you\u2019ll see the hue values spread across the vertical preview bar. Each curve has an on\/off checkbox, allowing users to quickly view changes. Now that we understand how they work, let\u2019s take a look at how we can use them.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Using the Tools<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Video Tutorial: Introducing Premiere\u2019s New Lumetri Curves \u2014 Using the Tools\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/replace\/6ecb62a1a0c206003663d1bf7b10b91d.jpeg\" alt=\"Video Tutorial: Introducing Premiere\u2019s New Lumetri Curves \u2014 Using the Tools\" \/><\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re called selective grading tools because that\u2019s exactly what they do. Take this sample shot of a dog. To isolate the red collar, I\u2019ll first grab the color picker and then click directly on the dog\u2019s collar. Once selected, you\u2019ll notice that three points have been added to the curve. This selection includes not only that particular color but also the additional two points so I can manipulate this particular color without affecting the rest of the hues in the shot.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Video Tutorial: Introducing Premiere\u2019s New Lumetri Curves \u2014 Saturation\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/replace\/6381b67f60625a955ded60b92eed6e7f.jpeg\" alt=\"Video Tutorial: Introducing Premiere\u2019s New Lumetri Curves \u2014 Saturation\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Using the different curve tools, I can isolate this color and perform a number of changes. I can use Hue vs. Hue to change the color of the collar to green. I can use Hue vs. Sat to desaturate just the collar. And this is just the beginning. There are a variety of additional techniques you can perform with these tools, including fine-tuning skin tones, lowering the saturation of shadows, and a handful of other creative results.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Video Tutorial: Introducing Premiere\u2019s New Lumetri Curves \u2014 Fine-Tuning\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/replace\/94e40f0ce07de8490a1eab9e2cd6fb1a.jpeg\" alt=\"Video Tutorial: Introducing Premiere\u2019s New Lumetri Curves \u2014 Fine-Tuning\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In our latest video tutorial, learn how you can adjust hue, saturation, and luminance values with Adobe Premiere Pro 2019.
