VV4 Selective color correction?

Is it possible to correct colores on selected arias with VV4?
Like for examble, if a persone is standing on the beach, then I want the grey sky to be more blue and the person to be more orange, I would like change colors only to some objects in the movie, is that possible, Because if I change the color now every thing changes from color :-(.
And in the prof, films the colors are so beautiful. every thing has diffrent colors.
And if VV4 cant do this, does any one know an other software witch can do this?
Please help, thanks,

Vighnesh

In V4, you have the "saturation adjust" plug-in included in the deal: did you try that? I really don't know cause I haven't used it but that's what I'd try first... Let us know if it works please! ;)

An afterthought: Mmmm... yeah, maybe you'll need to use masks...

Yep, I have used "saturation adjust" plug-in.
But that only, makes the colors stronger(everything).
Thanks for the suggestion, ;-)

Take a look at chroma masks. These can select a specific part of the image based on color or brightness. If you create a second track above the original with a mask on the sky, then adjust the color of that track, it will affect only the masked area. The unmasked area will allow the original image to show through. Theoretically you could stack up as many of these as you wish. You may need to use keyframes to admust the mask parameters through the clip though as the brightness and composition of the image changes.

The secondary color corrector is perfect for this.
