There are quite a lot of applications for making color grading on a computer. For Adobe software, you can use Adobe Premiere and After Effects. This time we want to discuss Adobe Premiere Pro software. The tools are simple and simple. We want to make color grading with orange and teal which gives an effect like a sunset, which is widely used by video editors.
1. Prepare footage
First, prepare the video footage that you want to edit. Create a new workspace in the timeline, click the Window menu > Workspaces > Color. It is recommended that the color of the raw video not be too bright because it can affect the color of the resulting edit.

If you think your video is too bright, you can correct it first on the Lumetri Color > Creative tab. You can adjust saturation, vibrance, and faded film. Adjust it to the footage and color that you want to produce.
2. Create an adjustment layer
Next, create an adjustment layer for your work area. Click Project Panel > Adjustment Layer > drag to the timeline. Place it on top of the footage.

3. Create color grading on the color wheels
Click the adjustment layer on the timeline, click the Lumetri Color tab > Color Wheels. There are 3 adjustment wheels, shadows, midtones and highlights. You can start from shadows. To create orange and teal, drag the white plus sign to the blue level. In the highlight section, drag the white plus sign towards the opposite color, orange.
