Vectorscope display is also perfect for color grading, as you can easily see if your video is
correctly white balanced or if there is a color tint. If your video has a color tint, the vectorscope
display will drift off center, and you might see two center dots. Normally the blanking in the
video signal will create a dot in the center of the vectorscope, and this is because the blanking
in the video is black video without any color. Blanking provides a useful reference point to help
recognize areas of black video without any color information.
If your video has a color tint, you should see the blacks move off color and off center. The
degree of shift represents the amount of color tint in your video and you can see the shift in
both the white and black details of your video. This makes vectorscope display valuable for
removing color tint and regaining correct white balance.
Vectorscope display lets you push colors in your video to the limits, without accidentally adding
unwanted color tints to blacks and whites. While color balance can be monitored on both the
RGB parade display and vectorscope display, color balance issues will often be easier to see in
the vectorscope display.
When color correcting footage of skin tone, particularly faces, you will want to keep your warm
color saturation along a line at approximately 10 o'clock on the vectorscope. This is known as
the "fleshtone line" and is based on the color of blood beneath the skin's surface. The fleshtone
line is therefore applicable to all skin pigmentations and is the best way to ensure the skin tones
of your talent look natural.
