Studio’s color tools split into two groups: the primary sliders on the Color sub-tab, always present for every visual clip, and the additional grade effects you add from the Effects rack.

​
Primary corrections — Color tab

Select a clip and open Properties → Color. These three sliders cover most fixes: All three default to 0, which leaves the clip untouched.

​
Grade effects — Effects rack

Open Properties → Effects, pick an effect from the dropdown, and press Add.

​
Brightness

A single Amount slider (−1 to +1) that lifts or lowers the whole image uniformly. Use Exposure when you want a photographic response; use Brightness for a straight linear push.

​
Temperature

A Warm/Cool slider (−1 to +1). Positive values warm the image toward orange, negative values cool it toward blue — the classic white-balance fix for footage shot under mismatched lighting.

​
Tint

A Magenta/Green slider (−1 to +1) that shifts along the axis Temperature doesn’t cover. Pair the two to neutralize almost any color cast.

​
Curves

A tone map built from control points, applied to the channel you choose:
  • Channel — RGB grades all channels together for contrast shaping; Red, Green, or Blue grades one channel for color work.
  • The default curve is a straight line from black to white, meaning no change; moving points remaps input tones to output tones, with values blended smoothly between points.
Under the hood, Flowy’s color engine follows the same conventions as professional grading tools — CDL-style lift/gamma/gain and RGB curves — so grades translate predictably if you’re coming from Resolve or Premiere.
Order matters: effects apply top to bottom in the rack. Correct first (temperature, tint), then grade (curves) — the same clip reads differently if the curve runs before the white-balance fix.
