the Viewer.

You can also copy the color correction filter settings that you’ve previously made from
another clip to the currently selected clip.

To copy color correction filter settings from a previously corrected clip:

1

Double-click a sequence clip with a color correction filter applied to open the clip in
the Viewer.

3

Do one of the following:

Another way to use these controls is to select all the clips in the scene you’re working
on and then apply the color correction filter to all of them. Once you’ve done that, it’s
easy to use the Copy Filter controls to copy any color correction settings that you
change from prior clips in the sequence to current ones, and vice versa. For clips with
multiple filters, the Copy Filter controls operate by the following rules.
