In this video we are talking about the Offset Tool in Davinci Resolve. This is the first tool to master as a beginner colourist because it is the most powerful tool to get your shots balanced. Offset can adjust the exposure, or luminance and colour balance of your shot in an organic linear way. Combine a single offset adjustment inside a Davinci YRGB Colour Managed project for a powerful, fast balancing technique. 🫡 🚀

thnk u so much...WORK SMARTER NOT HARDER... u made davinci less complicated for me than 99 percent of davinci color grade gurus do!!! AMEN..

@JoshuaKirkNZ Год назад

Cheers for this!

That's the challenging thing about Davinci. There are so many routes to your destination, it can make you wonder if you've taken the right one. I've always thought of Offset as a crude and basic control, but I guess it really does get you 95 percent of the way there. I would normally futz with the temp slider, tint, contrast, pivot, but this is a straighter path for sure. Thanks, Joshua!

@JoshuaKirkNZ Год назад

Yeah for sure. I think there are many different ways to get to the end result, but definitely techniques that work more often than not which in this case is offset.

@darsonhall673 Год назад

Nice and simple start to colour grading. Talked me off the ledge of so many buttons and wheels and nodes! Haha, thanks Joshua.

@JoshuaKirkNZ Год назад

Keep going! It gets easier, but very daunting at first. I'm still have that feeling in the fusion page sometimes.

Good tutorial on basic shot matching - not sure what command you said to cycle across the clips - it sounded like "hold shift and alt" which maybe is a keyboard command you have set up in keyboard customization? When I do it for moving selected clips - I just use the down or up arrow and it cycles through. I find myself doing the macro to micro technique as well because budgets and clients wanting to see something tangible - the broad brush strokes is at least done as you fine tune. I also tend to cycle through and set the black point first. That totally depends on the photography. I have also trained myself to watch the scenes through in motion - so I set the playback to twice the speed and see how the shot matches work in motion. First frame matching like this can give a false impression as matched if the exposure suddenly changes a few frames in - either from an edit or a pan.

@JoshuaKirkNZ Год назад

Hey Jim, Great thoughts on matching scenes through motion. I need to do this more because you're right after you start watching it through the exposure could be different from the first scene. 👏

Hey mate, thank you for making such useful videos with out all the normal click baity crap, and stoked to see you're also from the top of the south,

@dansutherland8623 9 месяцев назад

sorry dum question disregard!

@AndyKunkel Год назад

I watched your other video, really helpful! But with the settings you do at 2:20. Would you only do that if you're working with footage from only one camera?

@JoshuaKirkNZ Год назад

Hey Andy, You can still use this method, you just have to right click on footage from different cameras and manual choose the input colour space for that camera.

@AndyKunkel Год назад

@@JoshuaKirkNZ awesome thank you so much!

@UraFlight 9 месяцев назад

Very nice tutorial ! Are you gonna do more of these ? I’ve been following Cullen tutorials but when I do apply the LUTs the footage looks very dark

@wildpatagoniafilms16 Год назад

another great post mate! thanks! question: what was the keys you used to jump from clip to clip in the color page...? was it "shift -L" ? it is a that a default key from davinci, or it has to be changed by the user...? thanks!

@JoshuaKirkNZ 11 месяцев назад

Yes i've setup a custom keyboard shortcut. The shortcut is 'Next Clip' and 'Previous Clip'

@paulie2140 10 месяцев назад

Hey Joshua, thanks for another great helpful video. Fate has brought me to DaVinci, as coming from Lumetri but excited about the new possibilities. One question re the Rec 709 base LUT, I normally just correct the footage (V-log) my self, using parade for balance. Is ot essential to use a rec709 space, does it guarantee correct colour, even though it looks okay and reads right on the graphs? I ask because when I apply LUTS they don't always look right and I find it good practice to do myself. Please let me know your thoughts, thank you.

@JoshuaKirkNZ 10 месяцев назад

Using a color space transform or a Lut supplied by the camera manufacturer that converts your camera colour space into Rec709 is a ‘technical’ conversion. This provides consistent results, but yes you can transform the footage manually using contrast and saturation for example and you will still have a rec709 image. The more you grade the more you want predictable results and that’s what a color space transform gets you. You can also tweak the image in a node before your Lut. LUTs are color space specific as well so that might be why you are getting wacky rendering from the lut.

@@JoshuaKirkNZ Brilliant, understood. Thank you so much for getting back to me on this

@squeakingviolin 7 месяцев назад

Shift+Alt to cycle through clips doesn't work for me, anything I'm missing？

@cire30a Год назад

wonderful tutorial, but what was that shortcut. how are you using shit+L to move selected clip left or right?

@JoshuaKirkNZ Год назад

Sorry I should have explain this is part of my custom keyboard shortcuts. the shortcut is 'Previous Clip' and 'Next Clip' which you can map yourself by pressing Command or CTRL K in Davinci.
