How to Do the Color Correction/Grading in Adobe Rush
Mar 27, 2024• Proven solutions
Even the videos captured with high-resolution cameras can benefit from color adjustments, as raw footage can often be too dark or its colors are simply not vivid enough. Most video editing software offers basic color correction tools that enable you to adjust the brightness, contrast or saturation, but having more control over the color correction process can be beneficial to the project you're working on for a lot of different reasons. Read on, If you would like to learn how to do color correction in Adobe Rush.
Using the Color Correction Tools in Adobe Rush
Social media videos are growing in popularity at an astounding rate, which is the reason why Adobe's latest app is designed to help video content creators save time on performing complicated video editing tasks. Adobe Rush offers a number of preset and manual color correction options that can help you enhance the colors in your videos.
Make sure that a clip on the timeline is selected, then open the Color panel and browse through the Preset tab to explore the color correction options the Adobe Rush app offers.
Clicking on a preset will automatically apply it to the clip, and at the bottom of the Preset tab, you'll be able to see the Intensity slider that enables you to determine the intensity of the preset you added to the selected video clip.
Click on the Edit tab to gain access to color correction tools such as Exposure, Contrast, Highlights or Shadows, and drag each slider in order to make the colors in your video look more natural.
The Edit tab also offers some advanced options like Sharpening or Vignette that can be used to improve the visual quality of your footage. After altering any of the Preset values or performing a color correction manually you can create your own preset you can later use in different projects.
Despite a decent amount of color correction tools Adobe Rush provides, using a more powerful video editor like Filmora will enable you to have more control over the color correction process.

The Adobe Rush app lets you perform basic color correction tasks, but it doesn't offer advanced color correction tools you might need while working on a project. Wondershare Filmora features rich effects and presets libraries you can easily use to enhance to colors of your videos and it provides you with professional color correction tools.
