This feature is highly underrated.
The Lightbox feature on the color page is a genius workflow tool to help you manage your grades.
If you haven’t used it before, give it a shot!
Lightbox is a gallery of all the shots in your timeline. You can easily navigate through your project and get a high level view of your work.
It’s especially useful when you’re working on a long project with tons of shots.
