Color grading

Color grading is when people change the colors in videos or pictures to make them look prettier or more interesting.

Imagine you have a coloring book and you want to color the picture of a flower. You can make the flower whatever color you want by choosing different crayons. The same thing happens with color grading, but with videos and pictures.

Just like a coloring book, videos or pictures might be too bright or too dark or have too many colors or not enough colors. Color grading helps fix all these problems so the video or picture looks nicer to our eyes.

Professional color graders have special tools that let them change things like brightness, contrast, saturation, and color balance. They work really carefully to make the video or picture look just right.

So, color grading is like coloring and fixing a picture, but instead of using crayons, people use special tools to adjust colors and make videos and pictures look nicer.
