color correction
Fixing image hues
Color correction is the process of adjusting the colors in an image, video, or film to achieve accuracy, consistency, or a desired aesthetic.
In photography and film, it fixes problems like unnatural skin tones or mismatched lighting between shots.
In printing, it ensures colors appear as intended on paper.
Color correction ranges from subtle technical fixes to dramatic stylistic choices: The colorist did extensive color correction to give the film its cold, desaturated look.
