I’m a huge fan of the promise of color management — a consistent, color science-driven foundation we can color grade within. But as we’ll see in this Insight, the more you explore color management, the more you understand there’s no single “correct” framework for all use cases — only an ever-changing menu of options. When we begin to embrace this, we can stay current on those options and their creative implications, and grade better images more quickly as a result!

Key takeaways from this Insight

By the end of this Insight you should understand:

  • How and why color management systems can produce distinct visual results
  • How to evaluate different color management systems on real-world and synthetic images
  • How to select a color management system that best supports your creative intent
