00. Introduction
Remember that all guides on Style-Productions.com are made for teaching you the basics. We don't encourage anyone to copy our settings and import it to your own project. In other words, be creative!
This effect is one of my personal favourites. The effect is called 'Brightness and Contrast' and achieves a more professional look of your clips. Remember that there are no special settings I can give you by this tutorial. So remember that you need to play with your own settings by your own. Anyway, let's get to work!
01. Getting started
Open your clip in Vegas and then add the effect 'Brightness and contrast'.
02. Effect settings
Now you'll get up this window:
In this window you can change your values. It's better if you use more contrast than brightness. It's different settings on every map and location but at this map (de_cbble) it's really nice with a little higher value of contrast and a little lower brightness value:
As you can see, there's actually not so much difference, but if you see it in a movie your quality impression will be higher even if you don't think about it. Here's the result:
Remember that you need different values on every map/location so don't be afraid to mix your settings. Another thing you should really think about is to not exaggerate your values. It's a big mistake which many do in today's movies; it’s generally enough with low values.
Nice guide, but the brightness should be lower imo. But as you said, all guides are here to teach the basics.

You can't make any "preset" for B&C that's equally good on every single map and location on those given maps, the variety in map textures and lighting is just too diverse.
Норма :)
