Speed up your process and Save hours in post-productionIncluding the ColorChecker Video XL target in your production will allow everyone on your team – from producer and cinematographer to editor and colorist – to work with consistent color information. This saves time from pre-production through post and helps you get to your creative look faster.Achieving the proper color balance and exposure for video can be challenging. F-stops don’t always match. Ambient lighting conditions change. Multiple cameras and lenses have different looks, even if they are the same brand and model. When you are on a large set, larger venue, or capturing aerial shots, it can be even more challenging to capture small reference targets. This adds up to quality challenges and increased workload in post-production for your colorist or editor.Using a ColorChecker Video XL target allows you to capture the target at a greater distance or wider angle to:
- Set exposure
- Check highlights, shadows and mid-tones
- Establish accurate color balance
- Match multiple cameras
- Edit for mixed lighting
Speed up your color grading workflow by achieving ideal exposure and color balance, whether shooting with one camera or multiples. The ColorChecker Video XL target is twice the size of our standard Video target and includes the same series of chromatic color chips, skin tone chips, gray chips and illumination check chips. This layout is designed for ideal performance when used with vectorscopes and waveforms, whether on camera or in software.
