Chromatic Tutorials - video tutorials on our color grading tool

Chromatic is a comprehensive tool with lots of elements. We suggest going through these tutorials in order to give you an over view of the toolset. If you're familiar with other color grading software or plugins you may just want to to watch the User Interface Overview and dive right in. However you may find it useful to take a quick look at the Mask Tracking tutorial and Color Replace tutorial as these are more specific to Chromatic.  More tutorials will be coming soon including ones on creating specific types of looks and solving common issues in grading.
