Color Tuning

Color Decision app allows users to share and communicate their creative choices. ASC CDL is a format for the exchange of basic primary color grading information between equipment and software from different manufacturers. It is the industry-standard exchange format used for film and television. The ASC CDL allows (slope/offset /power) color corrections made with one compliant device at one location to be applied or modified by other compliant devices elsewhere. For example, a cinematographer can create various looks remotely from the set and share the ASC CDL color correction with a colorist in a post-production facility to use as a starting point for final color correction. Color Decision even allows users to overlay helpful tools to assist in fine-tuning your color such as split screens to preview before/after and various resizable scopes.
