Enhanced in Premiere Pro CC
The new Lumetri Deep Color Engine integration in Premiere Pro CC lets you apply SpeedGrade color grades and sophisticated looks within
Premiere Pro. You can use the new Lumetri Looks folder in the Effects panel to apply rich preset color grading effects easily. You can also use the
Lumetri effect to locate exported .looks from SpeedGrade or LUTs from other systems.

Adjusting color and luminance
In video, color correction encompasses adjusting both the hue (color or chroma) and luminance (brightness and contrast) in an image. Adjusting
the color and luminance in video clips can create a mood, eliminate a color cast in a clip, correct video that’s too dark or too light, or set the levels
to meet broadcast requirements or to match color from scene to scene. Effects can also adjust the color and luminance to emphasize or de-
emphasize a detail in a clip.
You can find the color- and luminance-adjusting effects in the Color Correction bin inside the Video Effects bin. Although other effects also adjust
color and luminance, the Color Correction effects are designed for making fine color and luminance corrections.
