Abstract
A color correction system and method are disclosed. A color corrector may include circuits for selecting a predetermined range of colors around an infinitely selectable principal color and circuits for selectively generating color corrections for the video picture signals which correspond to the predetermined range of colors. The color corrections are then applied to the video picture signals to produce color corrected video picture signals. The color corrections may be stored and recalled on a scene-by-scene basis. Two or more such circuits may be employed so that two or more different principal colors can be selected. Preferably, the predetermined range of colors is adjustable. A color corrector may also include circuits for storing and recalling area discrimination signals on a scene-by-scene basis. Moreover, a color corrector may include circuits for identifying the color corrections for a particular scene with a video picture from that particular scene. The video picture for the particular scene is displayed, and the operator may recall the color corrections by using the video picture together with an associated control.
