Why would you grab a free resolve and have use of its fantastic colour grading tools, then export the cube? I know the main reply might be 'I can't run resolve on my machine because it's old' technically you can because you will just be grading without any fx, fusion or masks etc. I've used resolve to edit pictures on the quick too, because it's such an intuitive set of tools.
HI ifell3! Thank you for the feedback! Resolve certainly does have a great set of tools and can also work with LUTs, similar to how Kdenlive can employ them in this case. Resolve is a great option for many things! The strength behind creating LUTs is that they can be reused across many different tools (video or image) and help unify the toning and feel across a complete story. Hope that helps some!
Granted, this is a good feature of Resolve! However, this video attempts to highlight another path of creating LUTs. In my case, I've built my video editing workflow around Kdenlive, which is a very lightweight install (~200MB), delivers useful features, and is easy for me to manage within Linux, yet can't export LUTs on its own. While very useful, the Resolve installer is much larger in size (1GB+, also system resource intensive), delivers many useful features (but pay-gates premium features), and incurs issues within the Linux realm. This is certainly not to knock Resolve (I had a better experience with it in Windows and can see it's value), but merely to point out the differences and relevance of utilizing other means of creating LUTs. Hope that helps!
@@Photolearningism Yes I get what you are saying. To be fair to Linux I've tried it and never really got on well with it. I've used so many different editors on both Linux and Windows. I think though if my PC couldn't handle running resolve full time, but I just wanted a lut I would use resolve purely for that purpose, export it then into KdenLive as a cube.
