Any generator · Matching two clips’ color
Color-match two AI video clips
Whether your clips come from the same generator or different ones, getting two AI video clips to share one color balance is a frame-pair matching problem.
What you're seeing
- Two clips that should belong to the same scene don’t match in color
- A live-action plate and an AI clip that need to share a look
- Clips from two different generators that grade differently
Why it happens
Independently rendered clips have no common color reference. Each was encoded on its own, so their white balance, contrast, and saturation land in different places — and the only way to unify them is to compute a transform from one to the other.
How to fix it with Color Correct
- Decide which clip is the reference (the look you want to keep).
- Load the reference and the source clip into Color Correct.
- Pick a representative frame in each that should agree in color.
- Run Frame-Pair Color Matching; add a mask if the frames contain content that legitimately differs.

Frequently asked questions
- Does Color Correct re-grade the whole clip or just match it?
- It matches. Color Correct computes a color transform from a reference frame (or frame pair) and applies it so the corrected clip lines up with your reference — it doesn't impose a creative grade. You stay in control of the look; Color Correct just removes the unwanted drift.
- Can I match clips from two different AI tools?
- Yes. Color Correct matches by reference frame, not by source tool, so a Kling clip and a Runway clip can be matched to each other (or to live action) exactly the same way.
