Notes for offline study · 3 November 2026

Colour correction with Lumetri Color

Key points

  • Lumetri Color offers basic correction, curves, wheels and HSL controls.
  • Fix exposure and white balance first, then apply a creative look.
  • Scopes such as the waveform show levels more reliably than your eyes.

Key points

  • Dynamic Link sends Premiere clips to After Effects without rendering.
  • Changes in After Effects update automatically in the Premiere timeline.
  • Rendering heavy linked comps before final export can improve playback.

Speeding up previews and renders

Key points

  • Lower preview resolution and region of interest make previews faster.
  • Pre-rendering or proxies help with heavy compositions.
  • Clearing the disk cache and keeping it on a fast drive helps performance.

Working to a client brief and revisions

Key points

  • A clear brief records length, format, style and deadline before you start.
  • Share low-resolution drafts at agreed milestones for feedback.
  • Agree the number of revision rounds in advance to protect the schedule.
