Thank you so much, Qazi! I just want to let you know how happy I am that I discovered your RU-vid channel. I didn't know anything about color back then. And now, my dream to create different looks that I see in the movies and music videos is within reach. You are the reason behind my progress in this field. I will always say this again, "I appreciate you, Qazi, for giving free content for us to watch and learn what professionals do". God bless you, Qazi! I will always support your channel.
The thing I keep finding with local production companies in my area is exactly what you expressed, apply a LUT and park it! There is so much more juice to be squeezed in the primaries and HDR pallet. Love your work Qazi ❤❤
Great video, love your grade upstream the lut, just shows how much work you have to put on even when you’re starting from a solid base! Just want to let everybody know that the gamut clipping Qazy’s experiencing with Resolve’s 2383 lut can be easily fixed by selecting “Gamut Mapping Method” and then -> “Saturation Compression” in the color space transform right before the lut, the one that is converting his camera color space to the rec 709 / cineon film log
Thanks for all the awesome tips! You said about the LUTs being designed for Cineon film log gamma, you used DaVinci Wide Gamut, etc. How did you learn about what colour spaces and gamma profiles that should be used?
if you are working in raw footage and in davnichi with HDR pallet: we dont have to clic on tree dots and put colour space and gamma to our raw fottage ? I suppose this is correct way right?
Shouldn’t we learn how to correct the lut which was killing your blue instant of using yours. ? I mean your one must be amazing, but problem was with resolve lut, so how can solution be your lut ? Or that
QAZI this is soooo goood i would love to see how you exposed your image in your camera settings a lot of people are lacking there white balance and properly exposing there image
Great content here. I wish you would label all your nodes and when deleting them maybe tell us which one and WHY instead if saying delete 'this node and reset this'. Masterful work though sir.
Why does all the footage in these kinds of videos start out so bright with such low contrast and saturation? Are you guys shooting to the right? Are our camera guys doing something wrong? It this just done for illustrative purposes so it is easier to see the color grade?
Hey Qazi, great video! I saw in old tutorials that to apply the CST effect you should put it in the last note. But in this tutorial you put a CST note at the beginning too. Can you tell me what is the difference between these two methods? Thanks and keep up the great work!
The cst before everything just changes the color space and gamma you're working in, you might want to work in a specific color space so that you get more use out of the colors in your footage or recreate a specific look. In the end it will become rec 709 which would be the end cst node. I use a similar technique for some looks I create, usually I work in a cineon log to better emulate film. I hope that helped!
bro make a video about best budget monitors for photo editing and video editing in 2023.. and also best color settings for photo and video editing..for all softwares..please..please bro..
Thanks for sharing. But got a doubt. CST at the beginning and at the end is clear including to the Cineon gamma space. But the second part when you deleted and reset nodes, I can't see what nodes were those. So what did you exactly do? What CST were deleted and reset? and where did you placed the 2383 last LUT ?
Love it! I never used LUTs because they never worked right, then I saw, I think your video, on how to properly use LUTs. However, I work primarily with a Black Magic Pocket 6k Pro, and a 4k. In the color space transform, I can't figure out what to put as my Input Color Space and Input Gamma. I've googled it and everyone is giving different answers. haha. Do you have any tips? Maybe there's a valuable video on showing which inputs to put to which cameras. haha
I love your content - short and straight to the point! I’ve been watching your content since 2020 and I’ve seen so much improvement in my work! Thank you very much for putting in the time and effort! 🎉
Best colorist tutorials on RU-vid. Usable tips from someone who's beautiful work speaks for itself. So many tutorials with way too many nodes that create heavy handed and overly trendy looking grades, this channel is always a breath of fresh air!
