Test tips for video creators
  • Follow the capture spec exactly: angle, length, lighting and resolution.
  • Plan each clip before you record; reshoots cost you unpaid time.
  • Keep faces and personal data out of frame unless the brief allows it.

    Describe a Target Color Grade

    Create a color grade with a "summer blockbuster" look. High contrast, teal in the shadows, warm orange and gold in the highlights and skin tones. Saturated but not unnatural.

    Isolate a Subject for Secondary Correction

    Create a mask that tracks the speaker's face throughout the clip. Invert the mask and slightly desaturate the background to make the subject pop.
