Is there an easy way to do color correction in Adobe Premiere Pro CC? Just some sort of preset that just works?

Is there an easy way to do color correction in Adobe Premiere Pro CC? Just some sort of preset that just works? I don't want to spend a ton of time on it.

No, because, as the name implies, color correction is a CORRECTION to the flaws of each individual clip.

 

While there ARE a ton of "presets" out there, none of them are perfect for your specific clips.

 

So you have the option to either flick through a bunch of presets until you land on the least objectionable one, OR make the adjustments that your clip needs. 

 

My suggestion, if you want to minimise the amount of time spent doing color work in post, is to make sure you're nailing your exposures on set, and  carefully watch the color cast on skin tones.
