What a great video on a use if the RGB mixer. And yes, it's true that it doesn't get enough love. I have seen in the past youTubers using the RGB mixer and pushing the levels of each up to 2.00 to turn up saturation, it should be pointed out that this does increase the saturation, but using it that way is no different than just increasing the saturation i n the primary tools from 50 to 100. But this technique of borrowing from the green to push the trace over, is brilliant and something that I have seen done before, but completely forgot about. I think fixing bad footage is an art. And I bet it is of great interest to filmmakers starting to do their own color grades. Especially in the documentary type films where there is virtually no set up time or gear, and worse no "retaking" of the footage. I really enjoyed this one Darren. Nice job.
Thanks Jim, appreciated. Yes I was amazed so little info on the RGB mixer out there. Of course agree sat would be done elsewhere as easier - I was merely proving a point here. As with my other nodes - not my normal node tree but it just seemed a shame to leave it there - I almost couldn't help myself but to correct the shot further and thought would be nice for those who stuck around longer than 5 minutes to see!! Good to be back - it's been. few weeks since I did an episode and intend to get a few out soon now and get back on it. Appreciate your comments as always!! Thanks, Darren.
I personally liked the extra bit at the end. It helps drive home that you were able to save a shot through a solid baseline of using the RGB mixer. I think in general your videos are very focused and your instinct for what to include is excellent.
Luke - thank you - that comment means a lot - I was tempted to stop at what the RGB mixer did but couldn't resist making shot better - youtube prefers shorter videos so I went against the stats and did what I want - as always do!! Thank you for commenting - really helpful to me to know what my audience wants! Darren.
As someone who colors a lot of reality tv, I see shots like this fairly often. Thank you so much for sharing this technique with us. Actually, thank you so much for creating this channel. I love how well you help us understand the why and not just the how. That aspect helps me to actually grow my craft. Thank you so much!
@@DarrenMostyn I second this. Casey Faris has started doing hard promos on his paid for services, which I get (we live in a capitalist society). It's nice that you're sharing priceless information & tutorials to those who are maybe self teaching and can't afford to pay for lessons. I've always used the colour temp to fix footage, but it doesn't always work how I want it to. This is for sure going to help, night and day, for fixing my own shots... When I forget to change the white balance!
Amazing job. What I love about your videos is you can tell this is what you do. You're a pro. So many other YTubers seem to just do the same videos and they're really just looking for ideas to videos to make videos. It'snice to see someone who knows color and has worked on your craft for so long.
Two years ago I didn't understand coloring. Then thought; 'mmm, yes, yes.' Partly thanks to you, I have known better for quite some time now. It's still wonderful to see your colormasters at work. Thank you Darren.
2:56 this is an example of how they used to do special effects in black and white movies circa 1940's. Since it was in black and white, color filters and colored makeup were used the same way your image was affected by sliding a color while in monochrome. If they needed to do an aging effect on an actor, they would paint wrinkles and creases on his face with a certain color only. one filter wont see that color and another will. I just learned that last year and it blew me away on how cool that was. everyone have a great week! thanks Darren
When pandemic started, i did not know anything about video editing but had to fix my daughter's videos which very very important to her. Tried hard to balance the color and minimize the color cast in a free online software. The color cast was still there but my daughter's friend was very happy for the result but was just better for me. Started to know about coloring from some locals video editors tutorial on youtube. When i knew Davinci Resolve is the proper software for video color editing, i found your video about color page tips for beginner and watched all your video & Cullen Kelly ever since. This video, again, is the best explanation for a beginner like me to understand more better about rgb mixer tool. Again thank you so much for all your effort giving very useful knowledge in video editing & color grading.
It’s funny because that shot looks like something out of a Netflix movie with the yellow-green grade that’s pretty big right now. Super helpful though!
Damn man...I just tried this on a piece of footage I HEAVILY and clumsily graded back in the day - I would normally have thought there was no way of making it look vaguely normal...but BANG, this made a huge difference!
I can't believe I've been using the offset tool all this time! No wonder it hasn't given me great results. People love to make things complicated and use all sorts of crazy tools, but actually what I've learnt is that the pros use the simplest and most elegant tools. Thanks so much Darren!
So glad to see you back! This is invaluable and count me in as another person who appreciates you going the extra mile to fully correct the shot. Not enough people do that and it's so helpful!
Thank you for adding that note - it's a tough decision with the UA-cam stats always wanting max in short time! Im glad I let it go and maybe lose a few points on UA-cam - Id rather give the extra info TBH!
Aloha Darren, I'm doing a BMD Color Training with Daria and we just did a shot matching exercise using the RGB mixer and a split wipe using the parade scope. It dialed the match in straight away and it looked amazing on a questionable shot. Glad to see you back in the saddle after the Mostyn Mayhem week of training! Between you and Daria I'm getting a helluva training!
Ok, so I am an absolute beginner at video grading(coming from stills photography), but have been using Resolve for a year or so. I’ve learned more from your channel in 45 minutes than I have in the past year. Top tier sir. Top tier.
I started watching this thinking I already knew all there was to know about the tool, and then learned lots! Thanks again for sharing your knowledge and doing so succinctly. So very helpful!!!
You've been an enormous help! I shot some run-n-gun indoor and outdoor footage with my GH5 years ago of my mom's greyhound adoption day. In my haste, I didn't readjust the color temp to match the indoor lighting. The indoor footage was gross. I struggled to get it to not look terrible. After seeing this, I brought up the project and applied your RGB mixer technique. WOW! So much better! Thank you!
As someone who's been watching you from your first upload. The extra information is always welcome, it allows us to fully understand how you get the intended result, which I assume, is why someone would be watching this channel, to get the outcomes we desire, especially if we find ourselves with footage that's presenting us with problems that we don't always have the best answer for.
Fantastic use of the Mixer. You are an awesome colorist I would hire in a heartbeat after seing this. Not too much, not too little and job done in an efficient and fast way. Keep it up!
What an amazing tutorial for recovering bad footage! I see this kind of footages almost everyday because i edit documentary films. Thank you again for all your effort. You're the best Darren!
Fantastic video. Simple, educational and straight to the point. RGB Mixer is key for diving videos and one of the reasons I switched to Davinci Resolve on top of its color grading capabilities. You succeed in giving this underrated and badly documented tool the interest it deserves. Many thanks.
Fantastic video 🔥 Not only for the color correct but the additional techniques as well. Could’ve used these tips last week - spent about 2 hours trying to blend a low-grade iPhone clip into an interview and this would’ve saved me so much time!
Great video, Darren! We need more videos of this kind. I started working in TV a few months ago and have to deal with a lot of badly shot footage in very little time. Thank you for this one and please do more 🙏
Great and informative video, Darren! I especially liked the part where you showed the different results one gets using the colour wheels and RGB mixer respectively. Thank you!
Nice. I've seen so many colour tutorials but this is something I'm going to have to remember. I've often been disatisfied with the colour wheels and warper fixing one thing and messing up another, only to use Lum Vs Sat and all those fancy things, only to get myself in a mess after hours of my eyes adjusting, looking at it the next day and realizing it looks horrible. The key to good colour correction I find is speed. The longer you look at it, the worse you make it.
Thank you so much. Because of this video I was able to improve the colors of my very old family video recorded on a 8mm tape with Sanyo camera. I was struggling for so long trying to fix it. It is still imperfect and obviously will never be. But now the colors are at least looking neutral and more pleasing to the eye. I cannot thank you enough for this. 😊
Excellent timing . Have a Convocation clip that needs attention. It’s a video of an iPad screen so I am not sure this will work, but at least I now have a way to approach the problem. Thanks!
WOW...I'm speechless, that was masterful work, love seeing this type of video where you just take bad and make it usable/good. The "behind the curtain" a bit of all the years of experience.
Such a great video. Beautifully explained. I never used this tool before, but look forward to using it for my balance node on a regular basis. Thank you.
What a great video. I was stuck with offset and thought I had it all but something was often off in extreme situations. Thank you so much Darren for sharing your infinite knowledge ❤
Great tutorial vid. Just started playing with Davinci. I've been watching your video and learning a lot. Please keep it up on sharing your expertise. Its much appreciated.
The is the best video ever. As someone who doesn't know much about video editing. Going through a quick run-through of how you edit at 7:19 really helps me figure out what to put in the UA-cam search bar

Thanks for going through in detail about this tool with this knowledge I was able to considerably improve some digitised standard 8mm footage. Along with the restoration tools in Da Vinci the final result was a massive improvement.
Darren, thank you for opening your eyes to this wonderful and not primitive frame balancing tool - RGB Mixer. I've never touched him in similar situations. And there are such shots... Oh, how often! Thank you, I will use it 👈👍🙌
This might just help with scene I captured for my forthcoming horror film that has been bothering me. I captured it with too much yellowish light from the restaurant I was filming inside of. Definitely gonna try some of these techniques!
you are a real gem my friend - I struggle with trying to figure out quite a few things on Davinci - this was one them - of course you make everything look so easy, thanks for sharing your incredible experience with amateurs like me.
Totally right, sometimes we receive so-so footage because of run and gun or a quack that happened on set during the production and it is so important to understand how to fix footages like that. I love your method because of its macro characteristic. It doesn't make any weird color reaction of a too specific fixing in your image and will protect it. Great video ! :)
Many thanks just learning DaVinci, and am really glad I watched this, its explained a lot of my questions. I couldn't understand why there were red and green channels in the blue. etc. That's great.
Nice! I love the RGB Mixer! I usually show something similar and end up explaining what's going on by demonstrating with a Splitter Combiner and soloing each channel. Also I like using it creatively for a little teal orange and improve skin tones. Well done for covering it! 👏👏
Just stumbled across this video in time! Doing a final colour grade of my first short film and getting annoyed by the colour cast of the primary colour wheels, and this is the EXACT tool I need for more subtle changes! I've never used the RGB mixer so off to play with it now!
Great stuff. Thanks Darren. Learned bucketloads about the RGB mixer in those 10 minutes than I ever imagined. I always ued the colour wheels before, but this is so much more effective.
Thank you so much this was actually such a useful tutorial and I stumbled upon it by mere accident! I learned so much and I was indeed having issues with moving the wheels to get a more neutral image since as you stated the video would just end up looking tinted as opposed to simply balanced. 10/10
Great! normally all videos are making with a high quality footage recording in ideal situations and the results are diferent to the results can get with less control situation of scene. Thanks!
i WAS JUSTT ABOUT TO RE-SHOOT A PART TOMORROW AS I SPENT HOURS Searching for this kinda video but couldn't find any. UA-cam Algo Gods today decided to be kinder on me today and this video popped up out of nowhere... You really saved the day my man🧡
My grading experience Helped to sharply caliberate my LG oled to my main refrence monitor...😅 Just by using LG removte and those 6 color control available in Settings...Now My Oled is seems more accurate and and images loos almost same when they reach Mobile phones ...Thanks to RGB mixer..It works...
Thank you Darren, this is exactly what I've been looking for! I film a lot for a charity in a location which has abhorrent green windows and fluorescent lighting-we're not allowed to put in big bright lights or turn off fixtures-and so I spent a lot of my time fixing footage exactly like this. I've always used HSL and the Primaries for this, but this looks wayyyyyy simpler and more accurate.
Very nice. I love using the mixer for individual LUM levels in B+W or within Layer Node for color images, but never thought of using in this fashion. Thanks Darren!!
@@DarrenMostyn fantastic looks within a Layer Mixer composited to color as well. Thanks again, I'm new to the channel and enjoying so much of the content

No channel put content about DaVinci Resolve like this, thank you mate.
Appreciated Roman.
Wow, this was really great. I usually ignored the RGB mixer, but not anymore. I didn't realize what a powerful little tool this is.
I can't believe I've been using the offset tool all this time! No wonder it hasn't given me great results. People love to make things complicated and use all sorts of crazy tools, but actually what I've learnt is that the pros use the simplest and most elegant tools. Thanks so much Darren!
offset is still my main tool if the footage looks normal.

Glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome! It's like standing in a HUGE workshop and with each of your videos I understand the tools better and better.
Great to hear!
Thanks for explaining the RGB mixer! This is a really helpful tool. I’m also use in the LAB color space.
I am really not comfortable with the colour corrections, so this was extremely helpful! Thank you.
Thank you, Darren. Will have to try using that sometime.
enjoy!
This was actually mind-blowing! This program always shocks me

Glad it was helpful!
Great stuff. Thanks Darren. Learned bucketloads about the RGB mixer in those 10 minutes than I ever imagined. I always ued the colour wheels before, but this is so much more effective.
Thanks Darren, very interesting. I need to spend some time practicing with the RGB mixer, very powerful tool.
Hi Ray. Good to hear for you. Yes, great tool when extreme measures needed.
What a great tuto. A new tool for my next edits, if I have problematic visuals. Thanks.
Thank you so much this was actually such a useful tutorial and I stumbled upon it by mere accident! I learned so much and I was indeed having issues with moving the wheels to get a more neutral image since as you stated the video would just end up looking tinted as opposed to simply balanced. 10/10

This is SO good - thank you! Really clear workflow - I feel like I've started to understand not just the how but also the why of how this stuff works!
my whole channel is about WHY not just which button to press! Glad you appreciate that.
Absolutely amazing! No nonsense unlike some, "pseudo pros" out there
i WAS JUSTT ABOUT TO RE-SHOOT A PART TOMORROW AS I SPENT HOURS Searching for this kinda video but couldn't find any. UA-cam Algo Gods today decided to be kinder on me today and this video popped up out of nowhere...
You really saved the day my man🧡
so pleased to hear that. Makes it all the more worthwhile. Hope your client is happy!
My grading experience Helped to sharply caliberate my LG oled to my main refrence monitor...😅 Just by using LG removte and those 6 color control available in Settings...Now My Oled is seems more accurate and and images loos almost same when they reach Mobile phones ...Thanks to RGB mixer..It works...
And best explanation of the RGB mixer I have seen so far, thank you!
Thanks Rich
You are amazing, this really helped my shots go from bad to easily better.
Glad it helped!
Just found your channel, am making serious progress thanks to you. Many thanks!
welcome to my channel - lots of curated playlists for you too!
Really, really me learning.
Thanks.
Thank you Darren, this is exactly what I've been looking for! I film a lot for a charity in a location which has abhorrent green windows and fluorescent lighting-we're not allowed to put in big bright lights or turn off fixtures-and so I spent a lot of my time fixing footage exactly like this. I've always used HSL and the Primaries for this, but this looks wayyyyyy simpler and more accurate.
glad to be of help Olly.
Very nice. I love using the mixer for individual LUM levels in B+W or within Layer Node for color images, but never thought of using in this fashion. Thanks Darren!!
In B& W its a great tool, bit for me this is its strenghth.
@@DarrenMostyn fantastic looks within a Layer Mixer composited to color as well. Thanks again, I'm new to the channel and enjoying so much of the content
Class act Darren....
Thank you so much for this explainer video. I've recently been trying to understand this tool, so this came in handy at the perfect time.
glad it was useful Ossai.
