A one-light workprint is a cinematographic term used to describe a timed workprint made using a single setting of the three lights (red, green and blue) used to make a colour film print. Since a fully timed print requires the presence of a skilled person called a colour timer (US) or film grader (UK), a one-light print is more economical for printing dailies (positive) from rushes (negative).

Cinematographers often require one-light Workprints to better judge their film exposures.
