If you make a shot brighter, it becomes washed out and it loses color details. If you make a shot darker, the saturation tends to go up. So depending upon how you manipulate the shot, you may need to adjust saturation, or vibrance. Let's go to the next sequence here. And if we take a look at the shot here, you'll see that this looks pretty good. It's the shot we were working with before, but the second instance of a shot is a little bit different. In this case, I'm going to play with the global saturation. So if I bring the saturation control up, the overall color gets more intense. If I bring it down, it globally affects the shot.
