White Balance Plug In

Can someone advise me on a plug in for a quick method of setting white balance when you did not get footage with correct white balance? Also can you set keyframes for changing the white balance in a multi-cam clip?
This is the footage I am looking to fix - look at the change when someone turns lighting on at : 3:41
Is there anyway to recue the white balance at 1:17.

Are there any good training videos for explaining all of this?
Thank you for your advice in advance.

Is there a good white balance plug-in for Premiere Elements?

Now that I've discovered and installed the Mercalli V2 Stabilizer plug-in (wow, is it great!), I think that the only thing lacking in Premiere Elements 10 is a plug-in to correct white balance.
What I'm talking about is a simple warmer / cooler temperature adustment plug-in.

A true white balance correction plug-in is no comparison to using the three-level Color Corrector or Color Enhancer.
If anyone has done extensive work on still images in Adobe Photoshop as I have, there's absolutely no comparison.
Yes, one can noodle around with the existing tools and kind of get there, but it requires a strong working knowledge of color balance variables.
A white balance plug-in has a simple warmer / cooler slider and can adjust white balance in a couple of seconds without skewing basic color components.

White Balance - Plug in for adjusting

I forgot to set the white balance on my camera before recording. I remember coming across an AE effect plug-in that will set/adjust the white balance but I cant remember which one it is.
thank You
CS4

There's a list of training resources at http://www.synthetic-ap.com/support/kb/420301.html
To do white balance it's really simple: Apply Color Finesse to a layer. In the effect controls window, click the "Auto Color" button. You're done.
Obviously there's a lot more to Color Finesse, but despite its depth, it's pretty simple for doing simple things.
(Note that Auto Color is new to Color Finesse 3 and CS5.)

No White Balance In Metadata Tab for RAW files

Hi - when I open my images in Bridge, I cannot see any White Balance info in the metadata tab for my RAW files despite it being checked in the metadata preferences tab (under both Camera Data EXIF and Camera Raw). In fact the metadata tab doesn't show up at all for Camera Raw info. It is very frustrating especially when I am comparing images taken using customs white balance, and ones taken using the automated WB settings. I am using CS3. Any advice on how to solve this mystery? Thanks

Could you be more specific about what system you have and what version of Bridge and Camera Raw plug in you are using?
Have you checked the Bridge menu: window and see if a checkmark is placed in front of the metadata panel?
Also if only the tab for the metadata panel is visible the only option to view the data itself is to drag the panel up or down to resize it and makes the data visible.

Adding White Balance To Raw Images

Does anyone know how to add a custom white balance to a raw image using Photoshop Elements 2?
Thanks,
John

The only way to work with RAW in PE 2 is if someone created a plug-in specifically for your camera's RAW files. For instance, for my Minolta RAW files, I used Dalibor's .MRW plug-in for PE 2. But there's nothing built-in in PE 2 that understands RAW. ACR appeared with PE 3.

White Balance Shift 3200 to 5600

Hallo,
We have material from one shooting done with three Panasonic DVX100AE, Unfortunatly, two cameras were set to 5600, on camera to 3200 white balance. Is there a way to converte the whole material from the "3200 camera" to 5600 ? Using the "try and error methode" with 3colour correction has not given satiesfying results yet. I´m wondering if there are any standard values known for that purpose that I could just write in the numberfields in 3cc ? Or is there a plug in available, that could do the job ?
Regards, Michael Lohrengel, Berlin, Germany

Michael:
This link will show you a tutorial about Using Match Hue in FCP 5 , using the 3CC filter.
I think you can try this workflow to match both footages.

Color correcting auto white balance footage

I shot some video yesterday and at the time of the shoot, I made sure to set my white balance, however after looking at the footage I notice the color temperature slightly shifts constantly. I don't know why this happened, but it's too late to investigate, my project is due in less than a week.
The good news is that I've realized that that there's a white object in the bg of the shot the entire time that is pure white so i could color correct by setting that as the white point in FCP. The only problem is that since it shifts every 3 seconds or so i would have to keyframe a LOT. Is there any plug-in or application that will let me track that white object in the background so it can set a custom white points for every frame?
Running Final Cut Pro 6.0.2
PS: I found Avid has auto color correction -- basically what I'm looking for I guess. Unfortunately I don't have Avid.

there's no auto color correction feature directly in FCP
there are 3rd party plugs to allow you to track objects but i'm not aware of any way to link that to a color correction

How do I save a file after altering white balance?

Adobe has previously supplied incorrect advice. Adobe has now told me to use this forum to seek the correct advice. I am trying to alter white balance on some shots. The originals are in RAW (actually Sony's ARW). So I alter the shots in Photoshop and save as a DNG file. This requires me to save to a new location- no problem. However, when I open the altered shot (saved as DNG), it has always reverted to the old (uncorrected) white balance. I have tried various ways of saving but this keeps recurring. Please does anyone know how I need to save the altered shots to "hold" the altered white balance. NB I have no need to retain the unaltered versions of the shots. Thanks

The originals are in RAW (actually Sony's ARW). So I alter the shots in Photoshop and save as a DNG file.
As Jon points out there's no reason to use DNG if your camera is supported by your version of the Camera RAW plugin:
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
The point of Camera RAW is to let you save color adjustments in a non-destructive way—the adjustments are saved as instructions rather than permanently applied to the image pixels. It's the digital version of an analog negative.
So you don't make the adjustments in Photoshop, you make them in Bridge or Lightroom and the adjustment instructions are saved either to an xml sidecar along with the file or in the Camera RAW database depending on your preferences (Bridge>Camera RAW Preferences). In Bridge you can make the adjustments, click either Done or Open, and the adjustments will be saved for that .CR2 image.
Here I've set a custom white balance, adjusted the exposure and clicked Done to save the settings. When I open the image now or in the future the "negative" will be "developed" using the saved white balance and exposure.
You can make additional adjustments in Photoshop, but those adjustments would not be saved with the .CR2 "negative". To use the image in other applications it has to be saved as a separate file (as a "positive")—.psd, .tiff, .jpg, etc. You can not place raw images in other apps like InDesign or Illustrator.

Using white point for White Balance (instead of gray point)

Dear All,
I am looking to buy Aperture 2.0, but one point annoys me a bit : it seems that we can only use gray point to make a White Balance. I use to use only white points in Photoshop, as my photos of products rarely include gray colors. I take the photos on white background only, and when doing WB with a white point, my product gets nice colors, and more important, appears to "float" on a totally white background.
Also, I do not want to bother with a gray card, as by experience it didn't prove to be as effective.
My question is : is there any means or plug-in to use white point to make a white balance ?
Thanks a lot !
Arn'

Arn,
Hate to break it to you but.... It doesn't matter if you use white or grey as long as the actual color is neutral (no tendency towards blue etc.) what does matter regarding white is to make sure that there is enough color information in all the color channels to make an accurate assessment of the color of the light in the scene.
As there are a million ways to do something in PS I don;t know exactly what you are doing but it sure sounds like you are actually doing a couple of things to the image in one step. In Aperture if I assume you are using the white balance control brick to manipulate white balance that is the only thing that is being changed - nothing else (like the contrast).

Does any1 know how to color correct for white balance/color grade?

hey wasup guys just finished my 1st music video now i need 2 color correct & color grade. i willl be making the video black & white so i was told i need 2 get rid of any color cast in my footage. i 4got 2 set the white balance on my 7d when i was shooting sum sceens so i could use any help possible like what is the best color corrector to use or how to white balance my footage any help is greatly appreciated thanks.

The basic tools are the same as in Photoshop but there are a bunch of 3rd party plug-ins out there that make the job easier. If you run one of the tutorials found in your Google Search and are stuck get back to us.

White Balance Metadata not showing in Adobe Bridge CS6

Hi there, I am running Bridge CS6 on a Mac, and use Canon 5D and 5DMark 111 cameras. I have an issue with Bridge which I can not seem to figure out. Whether I shoot Raw or JPG and I am trying to do some testing for white balance, once I open the images in Bridge, in the little icon panel just below the folders/favourites panel etc I can see the f stop info, speed, metering , ISO etc, but the only icons I get for WB are if use auto - then I see AUTO. But when I do a manual WB like 'cloudy', 'tungsten', or 'shade' etc all I get are the symbols for 'Custom" or "Manual". How do I get the actual symbols for what type of WB i've chosen to show up?
I have purged the Cache - both in the individual folder and the overall Cache in preferences. I have checked that all the boxes are ticked in the preferences panel for the Metadata. So not sure what else to do.
Cheers D

Ok thanks for that, at least I wont be chasing my tail.
I did install the DNG converter 8.3 but I still NEF files as a NEF icon. Any clues to what I may not be doing right there?

Adobe Bridge - White balance metadata

When I browse raw files from my Canon EOS Rebel XT/350D in Adobe Bridge I always look at the Metadata tab to check for the f-stop value, speed, white balance settings, etc. of the currently-selected raw image file.
I noticed that the pictures shot in Automatic White Balance appear on the upper-left portion of the Metadata tab as an icon indicating AWB. However, whenever I take pictures with manually-set white balances, such as shade, day light, tungsten, etc., the metadata tab no longer indicates the white balance I chose, instead, it either shows an icon of a camera or two dashes, as in --.
Is there any way I can set Adobe Bridge to show the appropriate White Balance icon for pictures I take with manually-set white balances?

Hi Curt,
Thanks for your reply. Yes, White Balance is checked in preferences/metadata. All of the Exposure metadata entries are also checked.
I forgot to mention that my version of Camera Raw is 4.5 (the latest).
You know, although White Balance is checked, I cannot find a White Balance text entry on any of the metadata lists (File properties, IPTC core, Camera Data (EXIF), etc.). The only place where I can see the White Balance setting in on the upper left corner of the Metadata tab, under the f-stop value.
Here is a personal question for you: When you browse your pictures in Adobe Bridge and you select one that was taken with a specific White Balance (not Auto), does your Adobe Bridge display an icon for that particular White Balance setting? I just want to eliminate the possibility that this happening only in my computer.
Thanks a lot for your time and attention.

How to use the Load Balancer Plug-in to serve multiple domains

In SJSAS8.1 SE/EE the asadmin commands that create and maintain a load balancer configuration operate within a domain. When the load balancer configuration is exported an xml file is created that contains all the information for that domain. To make the load balancer plug-in balance the load for multiple domains, the loadbalancer.xml files can be manually merged to conatin the data that is exported from each domain's load balancer configuration.
For example, 2 domains are created, both having a load balancing configuration. After exporting both configurations using the asadmin export-http-lb-config command, the user would then cut and past the cluster information into the single loadbalancer.xml file that resides under the web server's config directory.
An example of the manually merged loadbalancer.xml file follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<loadbalancer>
<cluster name="domain1">
<instance disable-timeout-in-minutes="30" enabled="true" listeners="http://localhost:1026 https://localhost:38181" name="i1"/>
<instance disable-timeout-in-minutes="30" enabled="true" listeners="http://localhost:1027 https://localhost:38182" name="i2"/>
<web-module context-root="ab" disable-timeout-in-minutes="30" enabled="true"/>
<health-checker interval-in-seconds="5" timeout-in-seconds="60" url="/"/>
</cluster>
<cluster name="domain2">

<web-module context-root="webservice" disable-timeout-in-minutes="30" enabled="true"/>
