Chrominance level
The colour portion of a video signal separate from the luminance (or brightness) component, representing the saturation and hue (tint) at a particular point of the image. Black, grey and white have no chrominance, but any coloured signal has both chrominance and luminance. The higher the chrominance level, the stronger the colour (e.g., a strong signal produces red, and a weak signal, pink).
