Finished a DVD project. The source footage was shot under fluorescent lights with lots of colorful objects. It looked good in the preview window (best, full), but when rendered the colors were very 'blown out' and over saturated looking. I have another photo program that recommends you desaturate the project by 20% if it's going to be viewed on TV. So since I'm not very familiar with how all those color correcting wheels and stuff work, I picked a default filter that said something like 'reduce oversaturation' and applied it to the whole project. That seemed to make it much better, but I don't know by how much. Anyone know why (in terms I could understand) that happens, and do you have any links that might help me understand how to do a better job on color correcting video? I'm very good at it in Photoshop, but not here. Thank you. Cin
