Picture this: you've spent hours filming the perfect scene, only to discover your footage looks flat, mismatched, or completely off-brand when you sit down to edit. You know VEO3 has incredible color grading capabilities, but staring at that blank prompt box feels like trying to speak a foreign language. What if you could skip the guesswork and get professional-grade results with 12 copy-ready prompts that actually work?
This collection gives you 12 battle-tested VEO3 prompts that transform your color grading from frustrating trial-and-error into precise, professional results. Each prompt tackles specific scenarios you actually encounter: matching cuts between different lighting conditions, creating cinematic looks, fixing white balance disasters, and achieving that perfect product color accuracy for e-commerce. Instead of spending hours tweaking settings and hoping for the best, you'll have ready-to-use prompts that deliver consistent, stunning grades every single time.
1
Cinematic Teal‑Orange Grade
Apply a cinematic teal‑orange grade: push shadows toward teal (Hue -30, Saturation +18), warm highlights toward orange (Hue +20, Saturation +12), increase midtone contrast +12, add gentle vignette (strength 0.18) and film grain 6%. Preserve face skin tones within 10% of original luminance and ensure skin hue stays within warm skin range.
Apply a classic teal‑orange cinematic look while preserving natural skin tones and highlight detail.
2
Neutralize Mixed Lighting (White Balance Match)
Detect dominant light sources and neutralize mixed lighting: target overall scene white balance to 5600K (tint +2), apply per-frame AWB correction anchored to detected gray card region, reduce orange tungsten spill by -30% in midtones, and preserve skin warmth.
Correct scenes with combined tungsten and daylight sources using per-shot white balance and neutral reference.
3
Night‑for‑Day Conversion
Transform daytime to night: lower exposure -2.0 stops, shift midtones and highlights toward blue (Hue +200°/Teal, Saturation +18), deepen shadows (Lift -18), increase shadow contrast +12, add subtle blue vignette (strength 0.22), and reduce overall saturation -10%. Maintain specular highlight detail.
Convert daytime footage into a believable night scene with cool tones, crushed blacks and retained highlight detail.
4
Film Stock Emulation (Kodak 2383 Style)
Apply film stock emulation resembling Kodak 2383: S‑curve with highlight rolloff (Highlights -8, Whites -6), midtone warm boost (R +6, G +3), add fine grain 8% with chromatic variation, introduce slight halation on bright highlights, and reduce digital sharpness -5%.
Emulate warm film stock characteristics: gentle highlight roll‑off, midtone warmth, subtle grain and halation.
5
Soft Pastel Fashion Grade
Create a soft pastel grade: lower contrast -15, shadows desaturated -20% and lifted +10 Luma, tint highlights slightly magenta (Hue +10, Saturation +12), overall saturation -8, boost clarity +6 for texture on fabrics while preserving skin smoothness using local masks.
Create a soft, pastel look ideal for fashion: low contrast, muted shadows, and lifted, tinted highlights.
6
Match Color Between Handheld Cuts
Analyze reference frame X (timestamp or frame path) and match target clip: align overall luminance ±2% tolerance, match white balance within ±150K, apply 3D LUT or per‑channel gain transform to minimize Delta E to under 4 across midtones; apply temporal smoothing to avoid flicker between frames.
Automatically match color and luminance between multiple handheld takes for a seamless cut sequence.
7
HDR to SDR Remap (Preserve Highlights)
Perform HDR→SDR conversion: use PQ to Rec.709 tone mapping with soft knee at 80% (Knee strength 0.55), compress highlights 3:1 above knee, apply highlight rolloff to preserve specular glints, map colors using Rec.709 gamut clamp, final gamma 2.4, and protect blacks by lifting shadows +6.
Tone‑map HDR footage to Rec.709 SDR while preserving specular highlights and avoiding crushed blacks.
