Chrystopher Rhodes aka YCImaging shows how to get that increasingly popular faded film look in Premiere Pro. First, he quickly walks through his own color correction process, increases the contrast, and at 1:15 he shows how he pulls out some of the browns in his footage using the HSL Secondary tools in the Lumetri Color panel. Then, at 2:29 Chrystopher shows two different ways to achieve the faded film look. The first way is the obvious Faded Film slider in the Creative tab of the Lumetri Color panel. But as Chrystopher points out, that can sometimes mess with your midtones. The second way gives you more control over your faded film look, and that's by using the Curves in the Lumetri Color panel.

In this tutorial I show you how to create a faded/vintage look for your color grade using Adobe Premiere Pro! —YCImaging

Ever wonder how to isolate a specific color and make the rest of the image black and white? Watch this Orange83 tutorial to learn how to create this look, also known as the Sin City effect, in Premiere Pro. Remember, when shooting or selecting your shot, pay attention to any colors similar to the one you want to leave behind. Any unwanted color will need to be masked out.

From there it's just a matter of making a color selection, setting the Amount to Decolor to 100%, and adjusting the Tolerance and Edge Softness as necessary. Now that you know how to do the Sin City effect in Premiere Pro, you can say,"I've been having so much fun I forgot to take my medicine."

In a very bold tutorial, Ian Sans of Learn How To Edit Stuff shows off his best practices for color grading in Premiere Pro. At 2:03, Ian begins his journey through the Lumetri Color panel, starting with the Basic Correction tab and going all the way through Vignette. While balancing the shot, Ian makes it clear that color grading is subjective, but if you want to be more "scientific", he suggests using the Waveform Lumetri Scope at 4:27. Ian skips the Creative tab and comes back to it at 12:57, and recommends applying Creative tab adjustments to an adjustment layer.
