Thank you so much for this in-depth tutorial! Simple to understand what could be complex.

@abouttheravadabuddhism Год назад

Awesome color grade tutorial, it took me most of the day because you would show something then I would get lost in playing with it, but it really opened up what you can do with this. I color graded and dropped in a couple of effects to a 10minute video I was working on, it does SOOOOO Much.. Thank YOu

@robainscough 8 месяцев назад

Great video. I used some of my D-Log drone footage to go along with your video tutorial. Would love to see you do a video on more complex footage, like ships on water with land in the background. My basic approach was to break up the elements in to "water", "Land", "ship hull", "ship deck", and "ship cabin". The biggest issue I had using your process was tracking because my footage rotated around the ship which had a "shadow" side and a "bright" side but the footage was continuous so it was almost impossible to do tracking (it would get lost because the entire ship was never always in frame). Then there was the issue of adjusting shadow side and light side while trying to keep a consistent water color. I never was able to get my footage to come out they way I wanted and ended up just go back to simple DJI LUT with some minor adjustments. Would love to see how you approach something similar to ship in water with landscape in the background?

@GunslingerMediaCo 8 месяцев назад

Omg man, you blew my mind so many times and I'm 15 minutes in. I had no idea you could auto detect cuts when importing media. WHAT THE HELL!! That's exactly what I need for the last 5 or so projects where I'm taking over from another editor! Also, that the stills screen taking up space that I got rid of thinking it was useless, is meant as a repository of still grabs and act as saved LUTs. Again..... WTF!!! I feel almost drunk right now, I can't believe it. I've been using Final Cut Pro with Color Finale 2, and this is already SO MUCH more streamlined and I didn't even get to the color grading part!! Thank you for this tutorial. Seriously, THANK YOU!

Thanks for the 10/10 comment I'm really glad to hear this was so useful for you!

@johnkahle2029 Год назад

Great tutorial! I was curious how you are able to have both your color wheels on the left and the curves on the right? My color page has one long line of all the tools, and can only select on at a time. Would love to know what to change to mimic your set up. Thanks!

@TutsPlusTom Год назад

Try going to Workspace in the top toolbar and then selecting Reset UI Layout, I just played around with it then to see if I could replicate your setup and then get it back to my layout and it worked. Hopefully it helps for your case!

@shinde59 2 года назад

Thank you for the great tutorial!!! Much needed. One quick question why do we need to create a mixer if one(bottom) is taking precedence on others?

@TutsPlusTom Год назад

Hey, thanks for watching! Node tree structures can change project to project and person to person, it really depends on personal workflow, what the shot calls for etc. I would say that if you want to dive deeper into all of the specific nodes then the DaVinci Resolve user manual is an incredibly good resource. It comes with the download of the program and you can also grab it from the Blackmagic Design website, fully searchable too. You'll get way more detailed information in there than I could put forward in a beginner tutorial / this comment! I hope it can be of some use for you 😄

@shinde59 Год назад

@@TutsPlusTom Hello Tom, thank you for your reply... my question was actually if they do take precedence then cant we put them in series (one after another) instead of parallel (on top of each other)?

@ozzyosmond1 Год назад

Awesome Tutorial Tom! Question - when I set up the parallel nodes exactly the way you did, the "ambience" node still affects the skin node. I switched which was on "top" but it didn't matter, the whole image was still affected. What am I doing wrong?!

@solemnlysol7735 6 месяцев назад

Love the video! I do have one question though, When I try to expand my scopes it opens in full screen instead of the tiny movable window within my software. Is there a way to solve this?

@sdda35 Год назад

Is there a way (or shortcut) to enable or disable ONLY ONE section on a Color node in the color tab? Not the whole node like CTRL+D, i need to enable or disable just one section, lets say a "before and after" for only the primaries. I don't want to break up every color edit to million Nodes for a reason, is there a way you think? Thank you.

Is this a good tutorial if you’re editing on Davinci Studio 18 (not 17) ?

@rohitkashyapx 5 месяцев назад

PS - Exporting and using the LUT from 1 clip to another (within davinci) does not equate to all that you did. In the LUT only the color properties get copied, not things like halation, noise reduction, etc.
