Color correcting fixes color issues and makes footage appear as naturalistic as possible, while color grading is adding a “filter” on it. However, color grading should not be confused with color correcting. Every film feels and looks different, and that is because of the genius colorist/s working behind the scenes.
Or how horror movies look very dark and reddish, but cartoons look very bright. That’s why sci-fi films look green-ish or blue-ish, and historical movies look brown and gray-ish. When a film elicits moods and emotions in you, that’s when you know the color grading is superb. Color grading is the process of enhancing the appearance of an image for presentation in different environments on different devices. One of the most important skills an editor should have is to color grade.
