This new Effect is a gamechanger! - Davinci Resolve 19 Studio 

1978: "Man, I wish I had a computer that would clean up this halation, grain and dirt" 2024: "Man, im glad I have a computer to add halation, grain and dirt"

I wasn't 100% sure how much detail to go into with this one, Or show it in use actually creating the looks! So... expect a totally different video on the channel soon where I just attempt to use this Film Look Creator to create some cool stuff, rather than talking through HOW to use it! 😬

I rarely leave a comment on anyone's videos, but this one deserves it. (To be honest, all your videos do.) You explain well without being boring or going into far too much detail. You can say less, but I UNDERSTAND better. Thank you so much. Your work is really appreciated.

I'm always impressed by the quality of yours tutorials. Thanks very much

A lot has to be said for the way black magic never nickel and dimes their customers. They give you a solid camera with consistent updates. You pay for their Pro software they never charge for upgrades. Unlike your sponsor.😐

This was very helpful! I´m new to Davinci and all the little things and shortcuts you are doing beside the main topic are even more helpful, thank you :)

Thank you Alex. Using this can definitely give you a look that is quick and easy!!

Whoa! You've done your homework on the Film Look Creator feature. Nicely presented, thank you!

Good comprehensive guide to the FLC. Nice.

You know it's a good day when Alex uploads a new video :D

"AH-MEH-ZING." We see what you did there. 🤣 👍

Super useful Alex, you have become quite the expert at Resolve 👍 I used to push a BOSCH FDL 60 Telecine chain between 1990 and 2005. Grading 16mm and 35mm neg and pos film to 1" tape and later Digital Betacam. Back in the day the Davinci system hardware overlay for telecine colourists was the Holy Grail, and I could only drool at trade shows such as SMPTE, as the Australian Film, Television and Radio School could not afford it then. To have it now on my desktop workstation, is a head spin to say the least. I have the Studio 18.6.6 version running and have also been putting off on 19 to come out of Beta. This is a gamechanger, I have always been a fanboy of the extensive tool set that RED GIANT provided in their Magic Bullet Looks. Have also played with Dehancer, but to have this now onboard is a real win win, thanks Cheers 🍷

Excellent video! I finally got a chance to really dive into this a couple days ago with the beta 4 update. Wholeheartedly agree - SO GOOD!

The amazing stretch was epic

Beautiful demo and explanations Alex! Especially the "it's not a replacement section" You perfectly demonstrated the reasoning.

Fantastic indepth tutorial 👍Thanks 😀

Thanks Alex!

Thank you for another really clear and helpful video.

And this is why I watch your vids. I didn’t even realize this was added in. Excellent overview.

Awesome as usual! Thanks for sharing!!

Thank you Alex.

Great review of the film look creator! Thanks!

Thank you for pointig this out! Great tool for instant better videos!

Impressive ! Thanks for all explanations

Wow, fantastic! Great tutorial. You rule! Thank you so much.

Thank you so much for this knowledgeable explanation for this new tool. I saw other youtubers but they don't get to the root of it.

I came here for the jokes and stayed because Davinci Resolve kicks ass.

Cool! Love the way you introducing new features. Very entertaining 👍🏻🔥

glad they finally added the option to start from scratch

I giggled so hard when you said Aeh-Meh-Zing lols

Great video, as always👍 Seems they forgot to add "film damage" to the effect? Would have been helpful to have it included.

Beautiful tutorial, very well done sir, thanks for the info!

This is so helpful thanks 🙏🏼

So good !!!

Nice work, man!

You are my hero.

Best video on the film look creator 🙏🏽

Thank you sir 🙏

Very awesome and detailed video! I will have to watch it again more carefuly! There is a lot of useful info inside! Wow! You must work a lot to provide us all of this stuff! And it's "free" for us, viewers... Sooooo, a big thanks for that! Have a nice one dude!

AH_MEH_ZING........😂❤VIDIO

Very interesting. Maybe it’s time for one of those "free versus studio" comparison videos again? Given all the recent changes and updates?

Oh im first!!! Looking forward to this!

Wow, this looks the nuts. Is the 19 version out of beta if not do you know when it will be the full version? Also 1 other thing as im new to resolve, do you have a tutorial for setting up the project and time line please for 4k sony footage filmed in HLG 3 or know a link to a good tutorial please.

Most colorists I know, don't use the adjustment layer for color specific things as they tend to create more problems than applying a powergrade to a specific hierarchy in the grading process - i.e. Timeline or post-Group level. I would suggest that people choose one over the other. Also in forums I see people having problems copying from clip to timeline level - and the grab still will work for that - Grab a still at clip level then go to Timeline level and grab the still and drop it on the ( empty ) timeline node area. I can see benefits to keeping the film look creator adjustment layer if it is used to be an effect, like how you applied it. If it is used in the context of showing a memory of someone with an old 8mm film - then it can work with a powergrade, but that would be a good choice as an adjustment layer - so that one doesn't have to make more groups or add to different clips on the color page. I think you have covered it really well Alex. Good introduction to this add-on Thanks

Oh nice, it’s like a built in version of dehancer

Ah-meh-zing😂😂😂 😂😂 love your videos mate. Very informative

You really baited me with that thumbnail... but I still learned something, so thank you.

Have the studio version, still on 18.6 because no notification of version 19 upgrade. Don't usually go the Beta route. Have I missed something?

You had me at Paid Version! 🤪

Is Davinci Resolve19 done with beta? I was waiting to download it until they were done testing it.

thanks for this :) Do we know when DR19 is eventually comin out? What is your guess?

At 20:00 what command do you use for copy Adj clip? thank you

so I try and watch all of your videos, thing is with this ones Thumbnail I almost didn't click because Im so use to all your other thumbnails.

Is that Beta 4 or something? I don't have Clean Slate wishlist: being able to blur the film gate, just a lil' bit

I am struggling to bring my Photoshop workflow to Affinity. Things like [below] are my "go to" tools but can't find alternative. 1. Create Smart Object, tbat I can merge layers quickly and export it as a single layer. 2. Camera Raw Filter, Quick color manipulation with easy access of masking it. 3. Layers that I can import to DaVinci Resolve, I tried exporting to psd but when imported, there are unread layers. I can't see all the layers.

Hey Alex, if let's say i work with V Log and V Gamut as the input, the timeline gamut as DaVinci Wide Gamut and my output Rec2020/HDR ST 2084, will this new tool work, is it color space aware or it needs an output of rec709?

This is a dumb question but, how did you set up your fusion Page with the nodes on the right like that?

Have you tried the film looks on raw photo files?

I have the paid version but when go to update it says I have the most recent version. 18.6.6

The beta is stopping from trying this out. downloading beta 4 at the moment. How are you able to try it out?

Have you heard when DR 19 is coming to iPad?

when did the update for 19 get released... I have the paid version and I cant get past 18.6???

I've been holding off Version 19 till it goes out of Beta but at timestamp 13:15 you answered my biggest question. So this Film Look Creator is basically a load of "Effects" neatly packaged into one convenient Effect. Wonder when Davinci Resolve will create a Skill/Talent/Ability Effect to counter my limited skills when attempting to grade? 🤣🤣 Surely only an idiot will keep paying a certain global Photo and Editing company a monthly ransom, just to keep using their editing applications, when Resolve can offer so much more for the equivalent of just 12 months renting/subscription/ransom fee?

Do we have a release window for 19? Or do I live under a rock and it's out now?

I have Resolve Studio v18.6.6 and every time I check for upgrades it says I'm current. When can I expect v19 as an automatic upgrade?

DaVinci just made their own version of Dehancer…

Hello Alex, I have just got off the phone with Davinch Resolve customer services because I have been having crashing problems. They have said my AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT 8GB VRAM is not powerful enough to handle 4k footage and colour correction, and that is without any VFX. Could you recommend any GPU'S please that will work well with Resolve for all my needs and wont break the bank.

Alex, are you able to answer something about your sponsor please?! The lifetime music on pricing page doesn't mention sfx are included, but the other plans do specifically mention them. But if you Google Audiio lifetime sound effects then it takes you to a page which implies you can buy a specific lifetime sfx plan. But that's not shown anywhere on the pricing page. Would appreciate it if you can find the answer as it will make the difference to whether I get it or not, as sfx is the main thing for me rather than the music. Cheers.

:-D ah meh zing intro,, lol

Evrey Da Vinci youtuber has different audio sponsor i noticed, funny.

Seems odd to not be able to save presets. I get the workarounds, but it does seem odd to me.

When will 19 comming?

When with 19 be let loose? I dont mean any beta version (I learned a long time ago the never DL any beta for risk of loosing everything)

Is DaVinci Resolve ver. 19 released...? And will it be released for the free version...?

You didn't include wide gamut under color management. Would've been helpful? Otherwise, good video

Is it available in paid iPad version ?

it makes your footage dark and grainy but i guess if that's watcha going for

Is davinci 19 available or still in beta?

How can I add noise to make the 16 and 8 mil more interesting?

waiting for 19......

One node to rule all the others. 😀

how many crashes you get making a video like this on beta software?

🙏👍💪

So is Davince Resolve 19 out of beta? And how do you actually update Davinci Resolve without your existing projects disappearing? I haven't managed this yet, my projects always disappear. This is why I'm always reluctant to update Davinci Resolve. It still baffles me why Davinci Resolve always has to fully deïnstall and install, and not just update. It also makes the downloads unnecessary large.

Frist! First also!

Omigosh. I love this guy. 😂😂 Marry me, please??

Another Ah-Meh-Zing video 😂

Alex please leave your wife and marry me :) I got so much help from your videos, thank you man!

21 minutes is long for ONE tool

To all creators please don't use it on boring footage to make it "cool". Adding film look on boring footage doesn't make it cool, it looks just ridiculous

Colour* Note: Americans aren't too stupid to realise that you are British, making videos in England, and so using the British spelling of "colour" won't offend them.

It just destroys a perfectly natural look. What’s the point of it. Footage looks like cheap Instagram filters

Another useless tool... You can do all this stuff in color correction page, with basic tools. I don't like it when a tool has 1000500 ways to do the same thing. It's duplication and complication without a reason. Yes, it may be difficult for beginners to understand that you can adjust the same exposure with wheels or on a graph. But once you figure it out, you work with it.

Great overview 🎉 keep it up

This is a dumb question but, how did you set up your fusion Page with the nodes on the right like that?
