It’s crazy to hear that you’re also colorblind. Awesome stuff. Wish I found this video a few years ago! Would have been a life saver!

When you said “Hey, you’re colorblind. Go home” you said in a way that I felt it!

@@theseangle Nothing to do with VFX. "The curb cut effect is the phenomenon of disability-friendly features being used and appreciated by a larger group than just the people they were designed for." -- Wikipedia. It refers to curb cuts, ern.. Sidewalk ramps, which were intended for people using wheelchairs but are useful for people using bikes, skateboards, baby strollers, shopping carts, hand trucks (two wheelers), wheelbarrows, and similar. Plus, they are a hint for blind people. And I'm sure there are other uses.

I'm colorblind too and I've had issues color correcting footage or even assets in Photoshop compositing aswell. I dealt with my deuteranopia just by simply handing cc and compositing to other people rather than trying to do it myself. Great to finally find a tutorial for this.

Dude huge fan ever since the old cardboard warfare days and this is such an amazing video. I legit can't see any of those numbers either! I'm also colour blind, and an editor, photographer, videographer - There needs to more of these type of videos!

@@TPDOP Various things with different levels of results. I use an app called Colorblind Assistant which is freeware, when running it has a little window that zooms into the area surrounding your cursor and gives pixel by pixel color data and a three word description. Windows has color profiles in it's accessibility options, although Im not sure they are great for design work as they can skew things. Hardware wise you can get various color readers. I guess the tech is the same as what they use to get unique paint colors mixed, they read a surface and give you color profiles. These can go mad expensive, I use a Nix device though. It is pretty cheap, accurate enough and is small and tough enough to hang off a set of keys so it is always at hand.

came to know after i turned 27, about my colorblindness in driving school eye test, before that it never occurred to me i was missing something but working in photoshop for a long. your story will helping many to overcome the fear of leaving vfx/cgi/editing coz of colorblindness, this video was a great help, THANK YOU.

I had no idea you are color blind. I am too and whenever I see creators like you making videos for that community it is really inspiring. This helped me out so much because before this whenever I was color matching something I always had to ask someone else to look at it and then make edits. It's super awesome to see content like this. Also at the end when you cleared up those myths was great, I remember in elementary school all the kids would grab markers or crayons and they'll test me on what color they are. It's hilarious when people think that I just don't see color. You're the best Clint keep making amazing content!

Thanks Clint 😊

Oh man, this is unexpected and amazing!! Protanopia (red/green) colour blind person here, and just want to say thank you so much for making this video

The idea of just trying to make it fit in if it were in a black and white newspaper is so easy to understand! Love this way of color correcting.

I am colorblind compositor as well. Glad to hear I am not the only one! When I started out I was told that I wouldn't be able to make it in the industry because my colors would always be off, but I have yet to run into major problems after a year of working. In Foundry's Nuke the process is fairly similar to AE, but it is a lot easier to check color values since you can control + click any pixel and it will tell you RGB numbers. After going through this process for a while you become more accustomed with how a color image is actually made and which RGB values attribute to which color which is actually kind of cool.

my goodness. this is all that i need. Thank you clint!

Straight up the best colour compositing tutorial I've seen. Simple and so effective! Thanks

Found out I was color blind (red green as well) while learning vfx back in high school and have been finding tricks and cheats to get by for years and years since. Love that you made a solid tutorial for everyone else that might be starting to learn now but would have been frustrated or discouraged otherwise!

Also thanks for this Clint. Great to see well respected artists like yourself representing.

pwnisher you are amazing, i run away from colors for whole my career, and working on VFx (with color issues) , is for me personally is like being a warrior in world wars, great great salute for finding a solution to literally an impossible to solve issue (for me), i mixed for first time in 10 yrs of career, Salute to you man, and your attitude, amazing, thanks

Wow super awesome tip! Never thought of this

The tools in these programs have many great work-arounds for people who are not only color blind, but helpful for those who aren't and this video is a great example of that in using one of the great many tools. Great video!

Great Tutorial again

Great technique. This method is also good for color correcting even if you're not color blind since often environmental or other screen elements can skew color perception. Going channel by channel and using color info will never let you down.

That is so useful thanks Clint!!!

As someone who is getting into VFX and is also color blind this was super helpful. I am also red and green color blind so all the circles at the start of the video that are supposed to have numbers in them just looked like a bunch of dots.

Woa Marc fitt’s English got so much better!! Much love

I highly appreciate this type of content! As a colorblind person, this inspire me very much.

As a colorblind artist myself, I have been using the same trick for couple of years and its been very useful.

every time i watch u i get amazed ❤

My friend first of all and this will be strange but, im glad to hear that your colorblind, as I am, and to be truth you're the first person in the video community that I "know" that's colorblind too, and to be truth that's amazing, I realized that I was colorblind when I was already on college, and when i actually discovered i thought leaving this path but somehow I ended up reading an article about some Portuguese Architect and he said "I love behind colorblind, no one sees the world like me", that was a turning point, from then I focused in trying to show to people how I see the world, and here I am a few years later trying to learn some new stuff about UE and found this video, you maybe won't read this, but for me that was the universe trying to say something to me! Thanks for all your videos, and btw this one is changed my color grading for life! thank you very much!

As a colour blind motion designer, this video was super helpful! Please do share more colour grading tips! Loved the video 🙌🙌🙌

Much thanks for sharing this. The technique has been very helpful.

wow, thanks for the tips! I have the same background where I wanted to be a pilot but found out when taking the tests for airforce that I had red green deficiency, and ended up as a VFX student :) One small positive factor is the doctor told me colorblind people's eyes are more sensitive to light than others, so this technique is very efficient.

Thanks for doing this Clint. I’m also protans colour blind (couldn’t see a single number in those test) and work in motion graphics. It’s really reassuring to see a fellow colourblind person kicking ass in vfx and not being held back. Thanks for the great video 👌🏼

I'm also a color blind filmmaker-- this is super helpful man. Thanks!

Thank you I needed this

Learned this trick years ago from a Sam and Niko "Shoot Your Friends" video. Has helped me tons!

I originally learned this technique from a Corridor BTS video back in like 2013. It has saved my butt so many times, and I'm not even colorblind. It's so useful to isolate color channels

thanks for the awesome tutorials. I'm not colorblind but this is still really helpful. THESE TIPS ARE SO IMPORTANT! keep it up.

ay im colourblind too this video is a life saver!

Great tutorial, even if you're not colour blind, it's a cool technique! If I could suggest a tutorial, I would personally LOVE a texturing tutorial from you. I watched the door handle VOD and the texturing part just left me itching to try it myself, and I've been looking for similar content ever since. I would love to learn more about detailed texturing with all those little tricks, like creating dust and noise maps procedurally and just cool node trickery to add detail. I use Blender, but from how it seems, I think Octane's nodes are almost identical to Cycles in Blender. Top notch stuff, mate, keep it up! Loving this content.

Another great tool for colorblind peeps like us is to use the skin tone line in a vectorscope (in AFX open Workspace/Color.) The option for turning on the line is in the settings if it's not already on. Lots of great tutorials on how to color correct using scopes, and you'll see that to improve your footage dramatically only takes a few simple steps with the scopes.

I never knew you were color blind too! Thanks for sharing this! I'm also red/green colorblind 🤓

Would love to say this looks great, but I'm colour blind too so what do I know?! Seriously though, this is an interesting new technique that I've never heard of before! Thanks Clint!

Great stuff! Thanks for sharing! I am also color blind and I was almost giving up to color correct footage. It was very frustrating after working many years in the field.

thank you very much! I'm not colorblind but I always struggling with color!

Cool one bruh
