Whats New in ColorDirector Ultra 4:
Popular Film-Style Grades
ColorDirector comes with a range of built-in, professionally designed presets that emulate the styles of well-known films. You can also save any manual adjustments you make to a video as a preset and use it again on future projects. You can also download a huge collection of free presets—including presets made using both ColorDirector & PhotoDirector—on DirectorZone.
HDR Video: From Ordinary to Extraordinary
Apply HDR to your videos to add more dynamic range to your scenes, bring out the detail and highlight the best parts of your footage.
HDR is perfect for landscape scenes where theres a lot of contrast between the sky and the land and you want to capture the skys detail without making the land look too dark, scenes of people in harsh sunlight where there can be too much bright glare and dark shadows, and even low-light scenes where you need to brighten the foreground.
Split Toning for Video (NEW!)
Split toning involves adding a color to the shadows and highlights of a video. Its an old photography technique, but is a more recent (and very effective) addition to the video editors toolkit. Its a great way to evoke a certain feeling from your video footage, or even achieve a dramatic effect that leaves a lasting impression with your watchers.
Tinting Your Video (NEW!)
Applying tints is an easy way to change the mood of your video. A cold wash of blue can make a video look cooler or more atmospheric, while a warm sepia tint can give a video a retro romantic look. Its also a great way to get that digital-green Matrix look. To effectively use tinting in your videos, try to apply a subtle tint that keeps the brightest whites and darkest shadows un-tinted.
Intelligent Motion Tracking
ColorDirectors intelligent motion tracking algoritm tracks motion by matching image data from a selected area in a frame to image data in each succeeding frame, so you can isolate objects, accurately track their movements and of course change or enhance their color.
Easy Color Replacement
An easy-to-use eye dropper is used to select any color in a video you want to replace. You can also click in the Original Color section and choose the color you want to replace.
Look-up Table (LUT) Conversion
LUTs are useful for matching footage from one source to another, for visual effect, or for output previewing. ColorDirector supports .3dl, .mga, .m3d, .cube and .csp format LUT files.
Precise Selection Masks
The Selection Mask can be used to precisely isolate any image in a frame for color grading and then, on a frame-by-frame level, track that objects motion over time.
Round-trip Editing with PowerDirector
For an optimal video editing workflow and to cut down on your video editing time, use PowerDirector to import and edit your raw video footage, launch ColorDirector directly from PowerDirectors interface for color grading, then send the footage back to PowerDirector for video rendering and production.
