Heres a color correction tip
everytime you move the camera, change lighting, redo white balance, etc, fill the frame with a color card and record a few seconds. the color card should include white, black, and all colors of the color wheel(or at least the primaries, and secondaries). shoot your movie and edit it till your content. now, go back and only correct the few seconds of the color card till the whites are white, blacks are black, and all other colors sync up. or, if you wanted a scene to have less red and more green (they're complimentary!) you can use the card to accurately show just how much red vs green there is. after you correct each color card shot, copy and paste the effects onto the scenes in your timeline that correspond.
example. i shot a LS MS and CU of a dialogue scene. so i should have around 5 color card shots (give or take)
I start with a LS. move into a MS, cut to MS of other character, then to CU, and to another CU. so id correct the original 5 color card shots, the LS, the two MS, and the two CU's. I copy the LS corrections from the color card shot, and paste them onto the LS i used in the sequence. correct the MS's, and paste the corrections onto the MS's in the sequence, and repeat till your whole movie's been corrected.
afterwards, continue with secondary, and tertiary(if thats what you do) corrections. But remember, copy and paste is your best friend when color correcting, just make sure to name and label your shots so u can easily find what shots relate to each other.
Scopes are lifesavers, and knowing colors and their relationships (color wheel/color theory) is very good knowledge to have.
knowing these, and using this technique should help improve your correction workflow alot!
