EnhanceMovie Help - EnhanceMovie :: Hue/Saturation Filter

The Hue/Saturation filter is created for adjusting the hue and saturation of a video clip. It is helpful, for example, when a video clip was captured with too little saturation, and there is a need to increase it.

The Hue filter lets you adjust the hue of the entire image. Adjusting the hue, or color, represents a move around the color wheel. Hue is the color reflected from or transmitted through an object. It is measured as a location on the standard color wheel. A positive value indicates clockwise rotation, a negative value counter clockwise rotation. Values can range from -180 to +180.

The Saturation filter, sometimes called chroma, is the strength or purity of the color. Saturation represents the amount of gray in proportion to the hue. Values can range from -100 (percentage of desaturation, duller colors) to +100 (percentage of saturation increase). On the standard color wheel, saturation increases from the center to the edge. The Saturation filter lets you adjust the saturation of the entire image.
