The Hone phase of editing starts with an advanced skill: color correcting. The quickest way to correct the color in your clips is to find the white point or set the white balance by using the eyedropper method outlined in the video. Next, you need to choose your export settings. I recommend using a preset and exporting an h.264 mp4 video file. Once it is exported then you need to review the exported file in a media player. I use VLC media player because it’s free and it always works. The final part of the Hone phase is to make any changes to your sequence if you found issues while watching your exported video.
