How do I lighten up a sequence without loosing color and contrast?

how do I lighten up a sequence without loosing color and contrast?

What have you tired so far? Color correction can be a bit of a challenge until you get comfortable with it.
Also, unless your sequence is one uniform scene, it would probably be better to go on a clip by clip basis to make these adjustments - but here is one quick way to do it for the whole sequence, which may or may not give you the results you are looking for:
Apply an Adjustment Layer that covers the duration of your sequence.
Apply the Fast Color Corrector to the Adjustment Layer.
In the settings for the Fast Color Corrector, bring up the Input Gray level a bit (this will lighten the scene) and raise the Input Black Level (this will help restore some of the contrast). If you need to make the bright portions of the scene brighter, bring down the Input White Level.
Go slowly with small adjustments and  adjust to taste. You'll need to work back and forth on those controls to get the best compromise.
If you want more color, increase the Saturation a small amount.

    You couldn't change your primary email address (only aliases are possible, which wouldn't affect your stored emails). If you would like to have a new primary @icloud.com address, then you would have to create a new account.

    The update alerts are fake, and are intended to dupe you into installing malware or disclosing private information so that your identity can be stolen.
    You might get the alerts when visiting a website that has been hacked. Don't visit the site again. If applicable, notify the site administrator of the problem, but don't send email to an unknown party.
    If you get the alerts when visiting more than one well-known website, such as Google, YouTube, or Facebook, then they may be the result of an attack on your router that has caused you to get false results from looking up the addresses of Internet servers. Requests sent to those sites are redirected to a server controlled by the attacker. It's possible, but less likely, that the DNS server used by your ISP has been attacked.
    Back up all data.
    Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Cllck Advanced, open the DNS tab, and change the server addresses to the following:
              8.8.8.8
              8.8.4.4
    That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.
    In Safari, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. If you’re using another browser, empty the cache. Test. If the fake update alerts stop, see below. Otherwise, ask for instructions.
    The router's documentation should tell you how to reset it to the factory default state. Usually there's a pinhole switch somewhere in the back. It may be labeled "RESET." Insert the end of a straightened paper clip or a similar tool and press the button inside for perhaps 15 seconds, or as long as the instructions specify.
    After resetting the router, quit the web browser and relaunch it while holding down the shift key. From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. Do the equivalent if you use another browser. Open the Downloads folder and delete anything you don't recognize.
    Then go through the router's initial setup procedure. I can't be specific, because it's different for every model. The key points are these:
    1. Don't allow the router to be administered from the WAN (Internet) port, if it has that option. Most do.
    2. Set a strong password to protect the router's settings: at least ten random upper- and lower-case letters and digits. Don't use the default password or any other that could be guessed. Save the password in your keychain. Any password that you can remember is weak.
    3. If the router is wireless, or if you have a wireless access point on the network, use "WPA 2 Personal" security and set a different strong password to protect the network. If the router or access point doesn't support WPA 2, it's obsolete and must be replaced.
    During the time the router was compromised, you were redirected to bogus websites. If you ever connected to a secure site and got a warning from your browser that the identity of the server could not be verified, and you dismissed that warning in order to log in, assume that your credentials for the site have been stolen and that the attacker has control of the account. This warning also applies to all websites on which you saw the fake update alerts.
    Check the router manufacturer's website for a firmware update.
    If you downloaded and installed what you thought was a software update, ask for instructions.

  • How do I upgrade from 3.5 without loosing cookies?

    How do I upgrade from 3.5 without loosing all cookies? I have tried installing 10 and 13 but neither will read existing cookies and will also essentially delete them. (i.e. when I revert back to 3.5 the cookies are gone.)

    I have not tried upgrading from 3.5 to 10 or 13, but see no reason why the cookies should be lost.
    Are you using multiple versions of Firefox, if so to prevent problems you should use a separate profile for each version. To try to prevent loss of cookies back up your Firefox profile and keep it somewhere safe outside of any firefox program or profile path.
    I am not sure what you are now trying to do. If your cookies are already deleted then you now have no cookies to loose on updating. Or is it some other setting or data you are concerned about.

  • To user accounts - how to merge without loosing apps and music?

    On the family Windows computer we have a couple of user profiles (correct term?). The kids each set up their own and me and the Ms. share one. I have an itunes account and there is also one on one of my childs profile. They are both tied to the same itunes/apple store account, but have different collections.
    My son has an Ipod Touch and is finding that he can't sync because if he does there is a message that he will loose apps and music (or something like that). He mostly downloads via his Touch. He has lost a few songs when he tried to sync to back up.
    Basically he would like to be able to sync and backup his Touch.
    Any thoughts on how he can do this without loosing apps and music?

    I assume you mean your itunes library ( music.etc) as your account is only a username and password.
    Type "move itunes library" into the google search bar.

    I bought an iphone for my daughter and was unaware that we should have a seperate appleid for each.Now we share an id and get eachothers contacts and face time calls. I recently bought another iphone and want to change ids without loosing items and music. How do I do this? The new phone is a 5.

    All purchases are always going to be associated to the ID that was used to purchase/download them.
    If you create an ID for your daughter you will want to check everywhere it is used to make sure you are not sharing messages and stuff. These would be iTunes/app store, iCloud, iMessages, and FaceTime.
    Go thru settings and find all mention of your ID.

    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • How to save to .doc or .rtf without loosing formatting

    Hi, I have to submit academic assignments with either .doc or .rtf file extensions. However, in the University there is a protocol for headers and footers so that the assignment is anonymous and when quoting from reference documents we have to indent paragraphs. When writing this is pages and exporting to .doc or .rtf all of the formatting gets lost. If I submit these without the right formatting, I will get marked down. They will not accept .pdf, which works OK - how can I save in .doc or .rtf without loosing the formatting?

    Hi Peter Breis, you have suggested soemthing that works which is the first line and left paragraph indents but this still does not work with tabs. The .rtf is not a solution becaue of the need for headers and footers (with pages numbers). In the .rtf file they just appear at the end of the text rather than a header and footer.
    Anyway, in summary, thank you Peter, you have given me a solution that works which is to indent using first line and left paragraph indents and to export into a .doc document. The headers and footers export without a problem using this method. I will nominate all the extra marks that I will get from following the University's protocol to you!, Thanks!

  • Phone has ben disabled. how do i turn it back on without loosing all data?

    phone has ben disabled. how do I enable phone without loosing all data?

    You don't, unless you have a recent backup of the phone. The only way to recover from a forgotten passcode is to restore the phone. You can then restore to your last backup. If you do not have a backup then you will lose your data. At this point you cannot create a backup.  iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled

  • How to resolve of corruption of undotbs without any backup and DB in Noarch

    Hi Guys,
    On one of my database having block corruption error, as no backup is availabe and its in noarchive mode. Previously It might be in "archvie mode"
    but when access comes to me it was in no archvie mode.
    database is down, when I run "startup" cmd on sqlprompt it give error as below:
    ERROR at line 1:

    and when check with alert.log file it gives as below error: corrupton of undotbs.

    ORA-01110: data file 2: 'D:\ORACLE\TEST1\UNDOTBS01.DBF'
    ---I also try with below steps:
    1) first take coldbackup
    2) create pfile from spfile and change parameters :
    undo_management to manual
    comment out undo_tablespace and undo_retention
    3) add one parameter as below:
    allowresetlogs_corruption=true
    4) add one more parameter :
    corruptedrollback_segment=(_SYSSMU1$,_SYSSMU2$,_SYSSMU3$,_SYSSMU4$,_SYSSMU5$)
    3) mount with pfile
    4) recover database until cancel
    cancel
    5) alter database open resetlogs;
    but the same error :(
    any suggestion...

  • How to restore to firfox 3.6 without loosing settings

    Hi
    i have being using Firefox 3.6 and like the layout now with v4 everything has changed.
    like favorites is now on the right
    reload is on the right
    1.can i set v4 to work like v3.6?
    2. or can i reinstall v3.6 without loosing settings,passwords etc.

    Why do I have to go to a random post on some random person's blog to make an attempt at righting user interface issues? Why is this not front and center in the browser itself (e.g. opens on a new tab the first time the browser opens, or contained and easily found within the help file)?
    ETA: It apparently also involves downloading skins, add-ons and extensions to even get the status bar back. Nothing like having to go to multiple third-parties to make the browser functional again.

  • How to get current value of SEQUENCE without using NEXTVAL

    Hi,
    Here is my requirement. I need to provide a screen for allowing user to change the sequence # at any given instance. If I use CURRVAL, i get error 'ORA-08002 sequence EMP_NO.CURRVAL is not yet defined in this session'
    If I use NEXTVAL and then CURRVAL it works, but i loose a sequence # which i cannot afford, since it's an employee #.
    Help required in solving the problem.
    Thanks,
    Raj

    Use this...
    select last_number from user_sequences where sequence_name = '<your-sequence>'
    to get the current sequence value. However bear in mind that on a multi-user system (and which system today is not?) there may be many users firing this query, so in case of a next sequence no. allocation request fired by more thn one of them the sequences each gets will not all be this number + 1.
