What Is Color Correction?

In any post-production workflow, color correction is generally one of the last steps in
finishing an edited program. Final Cut Express color correction tools give you precise
control over the look of every clip in your project by letting you adjust the color
balance, black levels, midtone levels, and white levels of individual clips.
