I make a point of watching 'basic skills' tutorials once in a while, despite having worked in the industry for 35 years +. Remarkably, you often learn stuff. Far too many people insist on jumping to advanced level stuff when they could really just do with learning about basic skills which will have a much bigger effect on their real work projects. I have to say you've completely nailed this mate. So many people - and were talking about professionals here too - start pushing colour wheels around, slapping in damned LUTs and generally acting like teenagers having-a-go with their software. Your system is pretty well the same as mine. We generally use Blackmagic cameras and the Raw footage off those is just fantastic. Starts off looking ghastly: ends up looking gorgeous. Just don't be afraid to allow your blacks and whites to clip a bit on your final grade, depending on your output. However good your grading is, be prepared for some idiot client with uncalibrated, cheap laptop to tell you that it's looking a bit dark/green etc. It pays to use decent, calibrated kit and be confident that you've followed a logical process. Good video, nice job. I salute you. JM
Thanks John for the kind words! I try to do that with all my tutorials (I don't always succeed) but distilling the info into the basics is the goal. After that you can go in so many directions. Thanks for watching and the nice comment John!
Really enjoyed reading your comment, John. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I'm reminded of a quote, that you might like. Paraphrasing..."The master thinks like a beginner. They're always learning..." (Robin Sharma)
i watched 50+ videos in 1 years nobody explained me this much clearly. But you explaned well, Thankss sir after 1 year i learned perfectly to color correct & color grade LOG footages❤.
By far, the best tutorial I have found on UA-cam as a creator. I just got a Canon C100 Mark II, and I was surprised how hard it was to find a really simple but comprehensive video on grading log footage. Thanks a billion times Rafael.
Hey Rafael. Just came across your video. I just bought a C200 and this was one of the best quick explanations of how to good a good look with Clog. Thanks for the video and please do more videos on color grading and correction. Cheers!
Awesome tutorial. By any chance do you have a tutorial understanding foundation of lumetry colors. This is one of my weakness. I color correct based on the eye not using correctly the lumetry
Thanks for watching and the comment Christopher! Color is such a subjective thing and I'm still learning. I will eventually do more color focused tutorials.
Dope vid! Usually, I know this and that about correction but here I learned a few new things! As they say, you never know, so when you don't, go ask Raff!
Just got the r6 and am new to all the c-log color grading. This video was so helpful and easy to understand! Thank you so much. You sir just got a new subscriber!
I've just moved over to my first canon with LOG and I was a little lost, thanks so much for making this a super easy process, Happy to say I've subbed! Great content man 10/10
This video was definitely helpful. I am doing things a little backwards. I definitely see how important is to properly expose C-Log after watching this video and and trying to color correct and color grade my video. I will watch the video of properly exposing c-log next! subscribed! Thanks
Thanks Jordan! I was the same way, once I was comfortable capturing the footage correctly, grading it in post became fun and I looked forward to it. Let me know if the other video helps you out. Thanks for the compliment and the comment!
Thanks a lot for making this video! just got an Eos R a few days ago because I decided to take video more seriously, and this was a huge help climbing the learning curve
Extremely helpful / good pace and clear explanation. The most definitely Refael - you have great talent to teach and/or pass your knowledge and experience on. thx
Good stuff!!! New to videography, background in photography and camera design. I have found the EOS R frustrating for video but getting better. Your comment is spot on regarding LUTs, I don’t understand what purchasing them accomplishes. Except for one, that is one which precisely maps Canons encode/compand process in reverse back to linear space. Haven’t found it... My own testing suggests at least one stop overexposing. In bright sunshine with shaded areas I believe 2 stops is better. Playing with gain, lift, and gamma produces accurate results. Question: I can’t find video metering modes and it seems that the entire frame is considered for exposure metering. This is terrible in some situations, as it would be in photo mode. If I’m not blind and this is true I’d Ask, are metering modes available on C200?
This is why I made this video, got frustrated that the provided conversion luts where not straightforward and were the same for every camera that canon has. I had lengthy discussion with my Colorist friends and they revealed that they rarely use conversion luts, they'll convert the color space to match the capture format. But in PR and FCPx that is not as easy to do consistently. So a base Rec709 timeline makes the most sense. The EOS R has it's own particulars for the best exposure settings that I just learned from a day of testing it. Overexposing worked the best. And wanted to share. Metering is very much a photography methodology. The Waveform is best for exposing and does give you a representation of the luma levels across the whole image. Check out my How to expose EOS R Log footage, I go over the waveform monitor and how to best use it on the camera. (if you haven't already learned to use it of course) ua-cam.com/video/pM_q66KVNaU/v-deo.html Thanks for the thoughtful comment!
Rafael Ludwig thanks man. I found this video very useful and waveforms the trick I needed to make sense of this. You’re correct, I’m photo centric but I have designed numerous cameras where precise exposure control was critical, I would prefer they utilize the same methodology as they do with camera. No camera has enough dynamic range to fully capture an outdoor scene. That said, my clips look better now and Resolve is quite good IMHO.
A big thumbs up for your explanation on this subject, I did a video on this subject and how to put C-Log on to any Canon camera, I did it with my Canon M6 mkii and it looks great.
Hey Rafael, great video! I have a question though, don't know if it'll make a difference but at 7:10 where you are going over white gray and black the line representing black is kinda fat compared to the line representing white that is a lot flatter. Does it make a difference? Should the black in the video be more or less black? Is there a way to make the black values more black without messing up all the progress already made?
Yes the portion of the line should be as black as possible, but because I am just averaging the darkest portion of the video it doesn't have to be too perfect. As long as the RGB Parade line up, then I know it's black. I am planing on making a more advance CC'ing tutorial that goes into HSL and desaturing the Black and White to have no color casts. Thanks for watching and the comment!
I just got the Canon EOS R6 and am anxious to learn how to do color grading...so, this was a great tutorial for me. I have a question: should I be shooting in manual exposure or automatic? I have the camera set for Canon Log "ON", Color Matrix "Neutral" and Color space "BT.709". Thanks and I am subscribed!
The more you can control, the better your image will turn out as you want them. Auto ISO is as far Auto as I go but only when it's extreme run and gun. Thanks for watching and the comment Dan!
Loved this video! I have been shooting in cine4 on my Sony for months because I really struggled with grading LOG. I'm colourblind so I could never get the balance right by looking at my footage. Now I understand how to use the scopes instead thanks to this video. I might go back to s log and give it a try. I imagine it'll work just the same right?
I did a video just focusing on skin tones - ua-cam.com/video/CbI3A_OOREo/v-deo.html The method is nearly the same for all skin tones as they fall very close on skin tone indicator line in terms of color. But the part (chapter) to check out in this video for dual skin tones in one scene is the Secondary Selections - that is the way I have tackled scenarios like that in the past. Thank for watching and the comment Broderick!
For the most part for web delivery I always have it set to 8bit - If that type of precision is needed I am sending it to a colourist! If you are working with SDR Broadcast standards 8bit is perfect, if you are heading into HDR delivery you may want to use float. Keep in mind that 95% of monitors out there are 8bit, only recently can they display 10bit. Thanks for watching and the comment John!
Despite having white balanced my cameras and used only temperature matched studio lighting, I still found myself fighting a losing battle against orange skin tones. THIS VIDEO SAVED MY A$$! The technique of masking and adjusting the full shot based on that mask is by far the most effective and fool proof method that I've ever seen. Thanks so much for taking the time to create these videos. I'm sure that there are thousands of people that you've helped out, in similar situations.
Amazing tutorial, thanks! I have a couple of questions though. 1) When you isolate the skin with a mask and then change the basic lumetri settings, doesn't this apply that change to the entire image though? I've seen other tutorials where they used the HSL tab to isolate the skin and adjust it like that, so it affects the skin only. What's the difference? 2) What's the difference between highlights, whites, and exposure? Thanks!
Yes, in this method it would affect the rest of the image, it takes the skin as the priority. I didn't want to do secondary color selections in this video as that gets pretty advanced for most viewers who are just looking for proper skin tones. I do have it in the pipeline to go more advanced with color correction and color grading. Didn't want to make this Tutorial 40 mins 😬 Thanks for watching and the comment!
Yes you can, but it is much easier for me to do it with color wheels. It's more precise when adding or subtracting color. Again thanks for the question!
Do you have advice on exporting? I'm still having issues where my exports are washed out. Even when I use the gamma compensation .cube, I still need to add an adjustment layer and it's still not the same. It's a mess.
It's gotten better in the latest releases of PPro. You first need to make sure to toggle "Display Color Management" under Premiere > Settings. THEN follow this video. ua-cam.com/video/oOxAmz5Hnnk/v-deo.html Thanks for watching and the question!
This will work with most log footage- it gets a bit more complicated with higher end camera or with raw footage. Thanks for watching and the comment Roger!
I have a recording of a 2 day event shot with 2 different cameras (one of them is dimmer and has lower saturation). I only have the final merged recording of both cameras fading in and out of each other on two 6 hour long files. Is there a tool that can detect the shot automatically and apply color color correction to just the dim video but not the other shot?
Question, when doing the process manual like this, What percentage of sharpening do you re add as well? The conversion luts I use now add their own sharpening so Im not sure how much to re add myself to say, V-LOG footage.
Yes there are, but the official that come from Canon are confusing and there are so many choices that unless you know exactly how your camera is set it becomes frustrating. And many people have created their own, which work great for the way they shoot, and don't 100% work for everyone else. That is why I made this video, I tried to skip the confusion for myself and shared it. Thanks for the question!

Hey Rafael, great video! I have a question though, don't know if it'll make a difference but at 7:10 where you are going over white gray and black the line representing black is kinda fat compared to the line representing white that is a lot flatter. Does it make a difference? Should the black in the video be more or less black? Is there a way to make the black values more black without messing up all the progress already made?
Yes the portion of the line should be as black as possible, but because I am just averaging the darkest portion of the video it doesn't have to be too perfect. As long as the RGB Parade line up, then I know it's black. I am planing on making a more advance CC'ing tutorial that goes into HSL and desaturing the Black and White to have no color casts.

Now I understand how to use the scopes instead thanks to this video. I might go back to s log and give it a try. I imagine it'll work just the same right?
I'm a sony shooter, what sony are you shooting with?
Hey Luke, you are correct, this method works with any LOG footage, when you try it out, circle back and let me know how it works for you.
Can you speak about how adjusting skin would be for those of darker skin? And also those of darker skin and lighter skin together in a clip?
I did a video just focusing on skin tones - ua-cam.com/video/CbI3A_OOREo/v-deo.html

Why don't you use Panasonic lut at the beginning? After applying the conversion video lut to rec.709, you can also do color correction?
Do you have advice on exporting? I'm still having issues where my exports are washed out. Even when I use the gamma compensation .cube, I still need to add an adjustment layer and it's still not the same. It's a mess.

Question, when doing the process manual like this, What percentage of sharpening do you re add as well? The conversion luts I use now add their own sharpening so Im not sure how much to re add myself to say, V-LOG footage.
Ok. But any luts for original c log that work well?
Yes there are, but the official that come from Canon are confusing and there are so many choices that unless you know exactly how your camera is set it becomes frustrating.
