Hi , I saw those tutorials already , really helpful but even when he explain the matchin process he does it on similar shooting .
My question is more about ....how to match shooting taken in totally different scenario .

Even when I try to color correct it , checking color parade or luma scope and they're good , colors and appareance are different , I wonder if it should be like that or you can have better matching option .

Thanks

me by far no expert in color grading, but …
Don't you expect too much about 'matching'?

Extreme example:
a sunset and inside a factory: warm, gradient, blurred colors vs. blueish, hard shadows = that will NEVER match. :blink:

even on the same set, under controlled light conditions, it's a different 'look', you point to a bright part or into a shadow ...

A first step is color correction, e.g. matching white-points, for sure.-

But, you can 'paste' some 'artificial' color over all scenes (the notorious 'orange'n teal' for example) ... or, as in TRAFFIC (Michael Douglas, Benecio del Tores) where each storyline got its own color (Mexico=yellow/black) ...





But 'matching' different scenes/locations/day of time ... ?
