Color grading in Premiere Pro CC to get a pro film look
www.cinemagrade.com
If you you're looking to make the look of your films standout and get your career to the next level but struggle with the color grading aspect... let this tutorial help you finally feel like you have a good grasp on making your images to look the way that you want them to and get a pro film look!
I have been where you have been and so I know that it can seem intimidating with all the different color correction tutorials and LUTs that are out there. Muddy looking images, shots that down't match together, skin tones that don't look quite right and that feeling of not knowing where to stop or when the grade looks right.
You can do it! Even if you're just a beginner or just starting out let this tutorial help you feel confident in Premiere Pro CC!
After I had tried everything to improve the look of my films, e.g. new camera, better grip, better lenses and cinematography training, the thing that finally helped my films look professional and land my first career job was what I did after the video edit in the color grade.
Adobe Premiere has made great strides not only advancing their editorial platform but in improving their color tools. In fact with the acquisition of Iridis SpeedGrade (a professional grading system) they have incorporated those industry standard tools now into Lumetri.
If you liked this tutorial and want a step-by-step training that goes all the way from familiarizing yourself with the tools to discovering the top grading secrets I want to invite you to free online workshop:

Hey this is a really detailed tutorial, and thanks for posting! In my experience though, I use the colour wheel sliders to adjust the shadows and highlights instead of the basic correction tab. I've noticed the latter is a bit inferior, and actually works differently to the colour wheels. The basic correction sliders introduce clipping and crushing much earlier than the colour wheel sliders do.

Color-grading alway seemed like magic to me, but you've done an amazing job of demystifying it.
