I have been fighting with red hued Fleshtone for a day and a half now, adjusting all my red controls, and of course putting them back to their calibrated points when they didn't work...then trying different combos...none of that worked. :M
Tonight I was watching the "Hudsucker Proxy" with my sweetie, and it suddenly HIT me. :D
I should be trying the green controls.
So I got my wife to notice the red hues, and told her of my battles, then ask her...you know what she said? "I'd increase the green, don't you know your color wheel?"...ah, no :oh:
As soon as she went to bed I got on it, I felt I knew just which green adjustment to make...BRIGHT BIAS...yep that was it.
Then I got this idea that if I wanted Fleshtones to look right for each movie I might have to adjust them on a "per movies basis", so I got out four movies that I knew had different Fleshtones, man sure enough, "Alien Resurrection" looked best with green BRIGHT BIAS set at 58, "the Fifth Element" at 60, "Hudsucher Proxy" and "the Whole Nine Yards best at 61.
Lesson learned...Kenny
