Why does my main menu display really dark?

I have never really made a main menu before, so this is kind of new to me

Anyway, I'm trying to make a main menu and it works fine, except that when I actually get into the game it looks much darker and much more contrasted than it should.

The script that manages the menu is here:

--service getting
ws = game:GetService("Workspace")

--other vars
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = player.CharacterAdded
local Mouse = player:GetMouse()
local camera = ws.CurrentCamera
local defaultCFrame = camera.CFrame
local view = 150
local blur = game.Lighting.Blur
local colorCorrection = game.Lighting.black1

--everything else
blur.Size = 24
colorCorrection.Enabled = false

function updateCamera()
    camera.CFrame = ws.mainMenu.menuCamera.CFrame
end

game:GetService("RunService").RenderStepped:Connect(updateCamera)

script.Parent.Frame.playButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
    wait(0.2)
    blur.Size = 0
    camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
    colorCorrection.Enabled = false
    script.Parent.Frame:Destroy()
    script:Destroy()
end)

Also, I know that this is not because any of the camera effects because the issue persisted even if the camera effects were never enabled.
