Is there a way in Final Cut to improve bad lighting in a video clip?
re-shoot!
among the techniques in final cut, you just have to play around with color correction and brightness/contrast filters. lighting is just like sound--you can improve and tweak in post, but if it's too bad to being with, you really need to re-shoot the bad footage.
yeah...so it goes...it was a one-time shoot. stupid dj didn't turn on the back lights when the band was playing. the retiree was up there singing away...oh well...

if it makes you feel any better, i did a one time shoot for a band and the sound guy send me a terrible feed. (there was a last minute location change because of rain and i didnt have time to do a test). \
