Gallery
A Gallery is a collection of edited photos or videos that a color correction professional (often called a colorist) creates to showcase their work. It serves as a visual portfolio demonstrating their ability to enhance colors, adjust lighting, and create specific moods in images or footage. When mentioned in resumes or job descriptions, it usually refers to either a professional's portfolio of completed projects or a workspace where they store and organize their color-corrected work for clients to review. Think of it like a painter's portfolio, but for people who perfect the colors and look of photos or videos.
