[00:00:00] Speaker 1: This right here is the same video. Color is usually the difference between something that's just recorded and something that actually feels finished. Most videos don't need heavy color grading. They just need a little more intention, a touch of contrast, better balance, and more life in the image. And now you can make those adjustments right where you're already editing. So instead of exporting, fixing it later, or just settling for good enough, you can dial in the look before you ever hit publish. If video is a part of how you show up as a creator, this gives you one more layer of control without complicating your workflow. And that's all there is to it. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me. And I'll see you in the next video.
