color correct

Tweak visual white balance

Color correct is to adjust the colors in an image, video, or film to achieve accurate, consistent, or stylistically desired tones.

The process fixes problems from lighting or camera settings and ensures visual continuity across shots: We need to color correct the footage before the final edit.

As an adjective, color-correct describes something with accurate color reproduction: a color-correct monitor.
