RAW and color grading represent distinct facets of video and photography post-production. RAW is an unprocessed file format that captures all the data from a camera's sensor without in-camera modifications, preserving maximal information and offering more flexibility during post-production adjustments, such as exposure and white balance. On the other hand, color grading is an artistic endeavor that modifies the colors and tones of an image or footage to create a desired aesthetic or mood. It extends beyond mere correction to infuse a specific visual style, using tools like color wheels and LUTs (Look-Up Tables). When you shoot in RAW, color grading becomes even more potent due to the enhanced data depth and flexibility RAW provides.
