We will be releasing a FREE update for Color Finale users adding support for the chart during a public beta period. For more experienced users, we’ve provided additional color space and camera support beyond the defaults for even greater accuracy. “By simply inserting the ColorChecker Passport Video into the frame prior to the ‘take,’ Color Finale removes all of the guesswork from color correction in post so that filmmakers can feel confident that they are achieving a good color-accurate starting point from which they can then apply a creative look.'Ĭolor Finale supports two modes of operation, according to Riddle, who explained, 'For users that have a very basic understanding of color spaces, we’ve provided default options that make Color Finale easy to use for great results without requiring an in-depth knowledge of color management. 'We are very excited to be the first color grading solution for video to support the X-Rite ColorChecker Passport Video targets,” said Denver Riddle, President of Color Grading Central. Support for the larger classic size ColorChecker Video is planned for a future release. This reduces color correction time and improves overall color quality, allowing filmmakers to more quickly get to an ideal color balance for their desired creative look. When the target is included in shot setup, the Color Finale plug-in for Apple’s Final Cut Pro X can automatically perform color corrections to adjust for color temperature issues, variances among cameras and other color biases that can occur during video shoots. X-Rite Incorporated, a global leader in color science and technology, and its subsidiary Pantone LLC, today announced that Color Finale from Color Grading Central is the first color grading solution for video to fully support X-Rite’s new ColorChecker Passport Video target.
