Making Hue, Saturation, and Value Adjustments

For certain color correction tasks like spill suppression, you ideally want to influence only a very narrow range of color values. For such tasks, it’s often helpful to use effects that employ the Hue, Saturation, and Value (HSV) color model. As its name indicates, the HSV color model breaks color into three components:

Hue, which refers to the color’s location on the traditional color wheel.

Saturation, which refers to the extent to which the color has “soaked up” its hue.

Value, which refers to the brightness of the color.

Original. Hue shift.

Original. Saturation decrease.

Original. Value decrease.

Nuke offers effects that allow you to correct the hue, saturation, and value components individually or collectively.
