Last weekend, we shot a 3-hour outdoor commencement ceremony, and realized halfway in that our cameras were still set to "artificial light".
Because the day was quite overcast, I kind of thought it looked "naturally blue", while we were shooting - but it became obvious on the computer that it was way too blue.
A combination of Vegas' color-curves (to make up for the fact that the speakers were backlighted against the sky), and Magic Bullet Looks' "warmth" settings saved the day quite easily. (Although I had to let the render run overnight, running 2 instances of Vegas at the same time on the 3 hours of footage from each of two cameras.)
No big revelations here... just expressing my appreciation for the tools we have in Vegas and the plug-ins that are available to add to Vegas.
