How I'm Grading My First Short Film
A little tutorial on the grade behind my first short film, which will be done in a week or so hopefully! I've discovered using curves gives you so much control and make it almost effortless to add subtle undertones, so that's what we'll be going over today: How to create teal shadows whilst keeping everything else clean.
Thank you guys for watching and let me know your thoughts/suggestions/questions in the comments!

This video is about the chromaticity diagram and vector scope in DaVinci Resolve, and should help explain why colour grading in larger colour spaces such as DWG are superior to Rec.709 for example. This topic is suuuper broad in scope so if you are interested check out the links below as I can't cover all of colour theory in a single video! Nonetheless, I hope you learnt something new!

Custom curves give you incredible way to grade with smooth roll off, for dialling in specific looks in highlights, midtones and shadows. Hope you guys enjoyed and leave your thoughts below!

    @1:20 Reference shot is green and yellow, so is your shot, if bring up black point and reduce exposure and white point, that should be it. I know its good to start with a netral image but you already shot the look in camera 😅

    Well, of course it’s very subjective, but, doesn’t look at all like the Batman look… Not even a little bit. The look is not just the color grading. It’s the camera. It’s the environment. There’s so much more to the look than simply color grading. And whatever camera they’re using it’s probably 16 bit depth.

      Yeah us budget filmmakers can only hope to get so close, but agree that grading is only a small piece of the puzzle, you would need the same lighting, atmosphere (haze etc.) and set design to achieve a 1:1 look

    I realized that colors, light and angle is not everything. A look is also the model in the video. A normal guy with curly hair (maybe yourself?) have something in missing even if its ONLY about the grading. Often when UA-camrs compare their graded shot to the hoolywood shot everything is perfect but the model gives the overall impact of even the colors. It feels not right to have him in this dark look compared to a creepy jokerface. And you already took elementes to emphasize the grading. You dont took a bright sunlight yachparty shot and tried to make it batman, no you took the subtrain station because it fits, but you stopped by the model and thought that this dont care, but even this care in grading. Maybe next time ask a acting friend or wear a costume to make it even closer on the psychological feel of the grading

    • @Graded_by_Oscar
      @Graded_by_Oscar 4 дні тому

      Hey man yeah I definitely agree, lighting and colouring is only a small part of the story and ultimately your talent/actor is going to play a big role. For this tutorial I just wanted to focus on the colour grading aspect so that’s what I did, I wasn’t too concerned about the physical appearance of my character as ultimately in this clip I’m not trying to tell a full story. Hope that makes sense!

    can we see an example on a real video? some log footage from a normal camera let’s say canon log or s log 3 and compare there.. i realize now it won’t be any different as long as you’re editing within a log colorspace the logarithmic operations responsible for compressing the highlights will just give them the smoother roll off , and DWG would simply widen the space even more

    • @Graded_by_Oscar
      @Graded_by_Oscar 22 дні тому

      Yeah exactly that’s right, on a regular video you would just notice clipping happen much faster and you wouldn’t be able to push your highlights and shadows as much, but in dwg you can stretch it to your hearts content 😎

      Hey man appreciate that a lot, I agree the whole concept of colour spaces can get very confusing and most people just say, don’t worry about it and grade in DWG and you’re chilling. Regarding raw footage I actually don’t know much about it at all as I’ve never graded it before so can’t really help there I’m sorry :/

  • @GencoUney
    @GencoUney 23 дні тому

    The difference you're seeing is due to da-vinci's tone mapping. Switching "Colour-space"s is just a 3x3 matrix transform. And it will not add a curve to the waveform. Look into what Linear and log encoding are, but mainly look into what image formation is. Hitchhikers guide to digital colour is a great place to start, get to question 13 at-least.

    The part where you talked about switching the gamma to linear; why is that better than using the offset wheel?

    • @Graded_by_Oscar
      @Graded_by_Oscar Місяць тому

      Very good question, it’s to do with the fact that changes made in linear gamma are more direct and it’s literally shifting the entire image to whatever colour you chose, but doing it linearly. In Gamma 2.4 or DaVinci Intermediate the offset changes aren’t linear, there’s a mathematical difference between how changes are made in these gammas/colour spaces. It’s kinda hard for me to explain as you can see but hope this makes sense 🤣 also big reason why linear is good for balancing is if u have VFX from after effects or other software, linear balancing will reflect more realistic lighting changes than other gammas 👍
