Quick Video: CRT Color grading and why my hands glow in front of them
Added 2021-03-22 19:19:45 +0000 UTCAlmost every video I do with CRTs in them I get questions about why my hands or other things in front of them seem to "glow" and I figured it would just be easiest to make one video that explains the whole process.
I have to color correct CRTs in every single shot they are in because bright filming lights unfairly wash them out. The side effect of this is that anything in front of them also gets adjusted. I go over this whole process in the video but it's pretty much unavoidable unless I want to spend way too much time masking my hands and that isn't really worth the effort.

Great explanation and good thinking to have a video “reply” to a frequent comment 👍

It's a really nice laptop too, it would be better if it had a numpad and a bigger track pad like modern laptops but it has a lot of features packed in and is still serviceable. I lucked out and found this one at a thrift store with just a minor scratch and I really like it.
