Vignette


It’s surprising how much difference a simple vignette effect can make to a picture.


A vignette was originally caused by camera lenses darkening the edge of frame, but modern
lenses rarely have this issue.


Instead, a vignette is commonly used to bring attention to the center of an image, and it can be
highly effective, even when the adjustment is subtle.


The Lumetri Color panel in action


Because adjustments made using the Lumetri Color panel are added collectively as a regular
Premiere Pro effect, you can also enable and disable the effect in the Effect Controls panel, or
create an effect preset.


Let’s try some prebuilt looks.


1. Open the sequence Jolie’s Garden in the Sequences bin. This is a simple sequence with a
series of clips that have a good range of color and contrast.
2. Position the playhead over the first clip in the sequence. The clip should highlight
automatically in the Timeline panel.
