Point-and Click
White Balance, Exposure, and Skin Tone Correction with iCorrect Portrait's
Memory Color
Technology
iCorrect Portrait is
the fastest and easiest way to make every portrait more life-like. With just a
few clicks, you can instantly correct the white balance, exposure, and skin tone
of any portrait. With iCorrect Portrait, you can easily remove any color cast,
correct the tonal range, adjust the brightness and contrast, and give every skin
tone the color of life.
First let's activate the Color Balance icon (this is active by default) and
remove the magenta color cast by clicking on areas in the image that our
memory tells us should be neutral gray like the white and black areas of the
dog's nose and the shirt of the girl on the right. By simply clicking
on these areas, the Memory Color technology is able to remove the color cast
throughout the entire image.
Now, even if your image does not provide a good representative neutral, you
can still correct any skin tone by activating the Skin Tone Memory Color
(the icon with the face on it) and clicking on several areas of the face.

The third Memory Color icon represents custom colors that you create.
Say for example you are working with a backdrop for portraits, you can
create a custom memory color from it to ensure that all of the images with
that backdrop match. Simply open a good representative image from a
certain batch and correct for the tonal range, brightness/contrast and color
balance, then create a custom memory color by clicking on the "Modify/Add
Colors...." button on the right side of the iCorrect Portrait window.
This will bring up the Custom memory color creation menu. Now type the
name for the new memory color and then click on the area of the background
you wish to save. For additional details on adding and modifying
custom memory colors, see the
Creating New Memory Color Definitions section of the user guide.

Now you can use the new memory color to correct the background of subsequent
images where there is no good reference point within the image. Other
examples for creating custom memory colors include team colors, logos,
foliage and sky.
