The SkinTone Scope is a specialized tool for monitoring skin tones. It creates a color qualifier targeting only the skin tone range, offering precision in color grading.
SkinTone Scope settings
Color Models
The SkinTone Scope features two color models:
HSV (Hue, Saturation, Value) — Ideal for intuitive adjustments as it separates the color (hue) from the grayscale information (value).
YCbCr (Luma, Blue-Difference Chroma, Red-Difference Chroma) — Suited for broadcast standards, focusing on luminance (Y) and color difference (Cb and Cr) components.
SkinTone overlay modes
Features
Luminosity and Saturation Range — Narrow the range for finer control over skin tones.
Overlay Modes — Three visualization options: grid, solid color, or a custom gradient between two selected colors.
Global Mask — Apply the skin tone selection as a global mask so all scopes display only the skin tone areas from the active image.
Global mask applied to all scopes
Low-Pass Filter — Smooth out the selection for a more natural look.
3-Color Mode with Sharp Transitions (1.10.139+)
Adds a three-color overlay mode with sharp transitions for quick pass/fail matching of skin tones.
