Why colorists prefer THIS saturation trick? 

I appreciate the effort of spreading knowledge but you rip some of these tricks from the Cullen Kelly's youtube channel. Some credit could be sweet just saying.

Amazing like always

Thanks for going down to the point, man I hated so much when people, try to be comedians and waste so much time, explaining their point. Good video.

where have you been all my life in my journey to colour grading! ❤️

Please keep up the good work. I also watched Cullens work. Both of you guys presented info uniquely and have helped me a bunch. Much appreciation.

This is great information!!!!! Thank you for sharing!!!!!

Great trick! Thanks so much for sharing!

the background music is amazing

wow that made a great change in the color thanks

Super neat trick, thanks for sharing!

excellent technique of applying cinematic saturation to frames 👏

This is solid - adding this to my work flow

Thank you again for such valuable information! Greetings from Spain

thank you so much for this

Amazing ! Thank you very much

Indeed an awesome trick! Little note, the timeline color space in the project settings needs to be correct for this to work properly! For example if your working with LogC footage you need to tell Resolve so that it uses the correct math when doing in-nodes-transformations like this one. To make sure you don’t get unwanted result 👍🏾 In this case the node is doing : Timeline Color Space -> HSV -> Timeline Color Space

This was awesome information

I like the fact that CF still pinned this comment even though it may not have been a thoroughly researched accusation. I’m just thankful for the content be modernized for RU-vid consumption. I don’t think either are the originators of the concept, but each created and put work into the way it’s represented in this format

Really nice

Respect for knowledge sharing 👍🏻

Very interesting trick

Wow Thanks

superb

You should leave the Spanish subtitles option active, there are people in Latin America who follow them, greetings from Peru! very good content!

I have a Sony A7iii, do you have any videos for cameras that don’t have a choice that don’t have the option to shoot in log? Can I still grade the footage?

Very informative 👌

Doesn't my Vibrancy slider in Premiere Pro just do the same thing?

I love the color granding from Bullet Train (2022). Can you recreate that with LUTs?

Is it possible to approach this method in Premiere Pro?

What’s better the Luts or Powergrades ?

Cullen Kelly has done a much more detailed video regarding the same, I would recommend everyone to try watching that as well.

How does this differ from lowring the lum mix on the node to zero and then adjusting the saturation control?

I love the look of this trick!! Is it at all possible to do this technique in Premiere Pro Lumetri??? :(

Thanks for this. I noticed you did this before the CST in ! If I’m working in DWG colour space, then presumably I can apply this approach in that colour space, and not the camera colour space prior to the CST in? Or am I not understanding this! Any advise welcome.

Can this technique be used in photoshop?

Definitely works but I'm not sure if this is much different than using the RGB Mixer with the preserve luminance box checked.

Is this method now replaced by the color splitter in Davinci resolve 19 by any chance?

is there anyway I can achieve this with premiere pro?

This is amazing, is there any way to do this on Premiere?

can this be done in premiere pro?

Does this work in color managed Workflow?

from which movie is a scene on the cover of the video?

Serious question. How does this actually differ from just adding a HSL type filter and pushing the sat up in any other grading software?

Do you (or anyone else) have any recommendations for coloring text books? I don't think picking up tricks, or even decent full courses, teaches people HOW coloring works but rather shows them how to repeat steps when they already know their points A and B. I don't think anybody is well served by learning a craft this way although I'll be the first to admit that that's how I've been doing it.

Bite from Culleb Kelly’s channel

Isn't Lum Vs Sat curve work the same way?

Chroma noise is so bad when I use this technique that the files are unusable. I use it on 10 bit 265 Drone shots. I think with Raw files or very high quality native files it might work great but with compressed footage it destroys the image.

HSV node can and will produce visual ARTIFACTS if there is some degree of negative values in the signal! They look like strange blue pixels that appear in the dark areas of the image. No adjustment is necessary to observe this effect - just place HSV node in a sequence. An image after HSV node is NOT recoverable. HSL node produces artifacts as well. How negative values are produced: 1. Signal itself can have some values below zero, because manufacturers "clip" some noise floor values below black point. 2. By basic operations like Lift and Offset. Do not use them for big exposure or contrast adjustments. Contrast with curve, HDR Wheels or Contrast slider with box "use S-Curve for contrast" ticked won't produce them. If you want to use both Offset and Lift wheels without risk of artifacts: 1. Use HSV in parallel node at the beginning of the signal chain (like Cullen does). Won't help if the signal has a lot of negative values from the beginning. 2. Use HSV in Color Warper node. You will see that the signal is looking weird, but saturation adjustments inside the grid will look fine. There are more potential issues with HSV. For example, noise in the neutral areas of the image when using Gamma wheel or sometimes even Gain wheel. I'll try to make separate video to showcase these problems and ways of resolution. Meanwhile, I'll post this comment to the videos that promote HSV adjustments.

I didn't listen to the whole thing but you should note that this adds chroma noise more more then the typical saturation would. Your actually tearing apart and separating the numbers when it comes down to the math. There are some "expensive albeit" DCTL's that can do this without adding chroma. Still a great trick. love it. but just thought I'd let everyone know... Of course, the better the caemra codec the less this is an issue.

Very informative tutorial. Any tips to achieve this in Final Cut Pro?

Isn't this identical to just using the Lum vs Sat curve?

why gain? Why not offset?

I think the dissemination of Internet video itself is for discussion and learning. I also watch the video of cullen Kelly. I respect him very much, but I think many people are too mythical about him. First of all, the hsv mode itself is to isolate information interference and skim brightness and hue Interference, this is not the only solution, I think this solution is very good, but I have my own solution, that is, I use the layer mode on the dedicated saturation node, I change the mode to saturation, then the same Whether it is the curve or the color wheel, the influence on the picture is limited to the saturation. Of course, I have also studied the usage of other layer modes. I just want to say that we are all just standing on the shoulders of the predecessors to provide new ideas and ideas. method, there is no need to overly myth some people, or be harsh on some people

fantastic !!!!!!!!!!! grazie mille

Sound Name???

Lumetri in Premiere Pro does all of that with just two sliders. No switching color spaces, no deactivation of channels, no 50.000 Nodes nothing. Just sliding two sliders, that's it. No matter who I watch, claiming DaVinci was the superior tool because of Nodes and tracking masks and you name it, what ever I saw in a tutorial, I go to Premiere and do THE EXACT SAME THING, but way more intuitively, with less limitations. Wonder why that is.

I will remain a saturation + gamma decrease peasant...

A saturation trick, then starts out by using a lut

I'm over-saturating and over exposing my music videos beyond recognition.

Unfortunately over half of your video/tutorial is a commercial. Let’s do more instruction and less selling.

Yeah, using luts instead of learning how colors work is the way to go

The title of this video threw me off 😂

I wouldn’t recommend this method to anyone unless you’ve been a pro for a while. The image breaks up so easy using this method. You will create artefacts everywhere if your not careful & it’ll be easy to spot in a cinema 😳.

The music is so obnoxious

What he is doing here is bypassing the sophisticated math Resolve uses to calculate percieved saturation and instead manipulate the mathematical saturation value directly. So this is the most rudimentary way to change saturation, same way as Paint does. Calling this cinematic or film like is a scam.

i clicked on lesbians and got a color grading video 😔

Bruh, just watched this from Cullen Kelly, what a joke

This is a copy, verbatim, of Cullen Kelley's HSV Saturation technique. You should have given him credit and not make it look like you came up with this on your own. Also, half the video is advertising some products I've never heard of. Why?

You talk WAY too much... just get to the point... the video starts around 3:20, and when you actually explain what to do you breeze through it... why is there 30x as much devoted to what you DON'T DO and about 20 seconds of what the actual technique is?

Very interesting trick
