Adéyẹmi September 16, 2018 Share September 16, 2018 Is it just me? Why is there always green latching onto skin tones after a colour balance, and when you try to take it out it becomes too or quite red or magenta. Any prevention ideas, apart from creating a key, because it's not practical all the time. Any professional approach, or required mode of operation while approaching an image. Thanks for the education in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Evans September 16, 2018 Share September 16, 2018 Use the tint control to bring it back to balance The tint control operates on the green/magenta axis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicolas Hanson September 17, 2018 Share September 17, 2018 Use the offset wheel to dial in the color balance and use the skin tone as the reference of interest. That works 99% of the times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruce alan greene November 27, 2018 Share November 27, 2018 If you're looking for a "saturated" look... you may find that all kinds of color reflections from sets, costumes, grass etc reflect on the face. With enough saturation, you're going to see multi colored faces. Film origination is less sensitive to this as it tends to push tones towards the color of what we think of as skin. It's not as accurate, but many find it more pleasing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
