Thank you sooooo much. Nobody on UA-cam don't speak about clip selection from different cameras, when you have a huge timeline, all of them just a UA-camrs, and doesn't work with serious project's. You are the diamond!)
I’m so glad I found this video, I’ve been looking for that for 2 days straight and this video started randomly and when I noticed she was separating the timelines my mind exploded, that’s awesome thank you so much
*busts into the room, worrying many people. YEAH BOYEEE! LET'S GET THAT COURSE! LET'S GOOOO! But seriously, excellent vid as always, very clear and concise, super well done. Excited for y'all!
*slightly alarmed (at first) by the person who just kicked the door down! ARGGHHHHH! 😳 OH! 🤔 OOOO! 😎 Yeah! Can't want to see what you all think of the finished result. Heheheh! Thanks so much @CaseyFaris Your kind encouragement is always appreciated.
Natalie your simple in-depth resolve tutorials explained in a very calm manner is what I love the most, as a Mentor you have a great ability to teach students by going down at their level of understanding & decoding complex task in a simple manner. This ability is rare & I wish your channel was available when I was starting with Resolve in 2016 nevertheless I still enjoy re-learning the basics all over again as I get to discover few new things which I wasn't even aware of. I wish you both grow more & more, achieve your goals as a Davinci Resolve Mentor, BMD should be thankful that the kind of tutorials you both are making for their software which is making more people adopt Resolve in the time to come.
Thank-you so much Ranjan, that is very kind of you to say. We both really enjoy getting to make these videos. We're grateful to have you in our audience. There's such a great community of people using Resole. If you ever have any suggestions of topics we can feature or ways we can improve our content, please say.
Thank you Natalie (and Leon) for providing such a rich and enjoyable source of learning for me. Each and every Team 2 Films tutorial I’ve watched thus far has elevated my knowledge and appreciation of DVR. Very much looking forward to your course as well. Cheers from Las Vegas.
Thank you so much for your support, we really appreciate it. We're really enjoying making these videos, and it's nice to know they have such an appreciative audience. Thanks again, Natalie and Leon.
Thank you for this tutorial. Your clear and concise delivery has changed my workflow. This is the best tutorial I have seen on this subject. I am subscribing!
I'm chiming in about the beautiful tone of your videos. I'm really enjoying the quality of the content and I'm looking forward to learning more about the course you're working on. As for this video, thank you for the thoughtful discussion. My workflow includes elements you touched on in your video. What I particularly appreciated were the insights you provided about when you'd want to use one technique over another. That is something I've been working through as I've used my workflow on various projects. If you're inclined to do a follow-up on this topic of groups, you may wish to include the topic of what can and cannot be done in group gradings (pre- and post-clip). For example, tracking is only possible at the clip level. If you performed a targeted secondary grade (for example, key and increase gamma on the subject's face), you have to repeat the grading and tracking for each clip in that group at the clip level.
Hello, that's a great idea about the follow up. We should have included those details in this video. Oops! We appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment. Great to have you here.
@@team2films other tips were great as well, I also put CST transformation in pre and post (it works for my workflow). so it’s just this lightbox smart filter feature that I didn’t know and learned today - thanks again :)
Super exited for the course! Great video as always, I was wondering a little more about order of operations. I was doing a grade, and I was using node based color management. I was having an issue where it was hard to see the final result when applying a look at the timeline level, whenever i went back to the clip, i couldn't see what the final result would be. I'm very interested in learning more about order of operations. (also, I really appreciate it when you show the diagrams from the manual, that was an excellent touch!)
Thank you so much for quick answer! What if I want to apply one of the FILM LOOKS that comes with Davinci resolve. Can I use them in a color management workflow as well? How do I set that up in that case?
Amazing tutorial. But why would you use the groups method to grade vs the local and remote grades method? What are the advantages/cons of each method? Thanks 😊
There's a section in the video where we attempted to explain that with our example footage. The interview consists of 5 different takes. Remote grades won't help there. A group is needed. Or if you want to give an entire scene a creative look. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching and thanks for your kind compliment.
Hello! Great video. Where in the order should I put CST? Could I put input colorspace to working colorspace in the ”group pre clip” and working colorspace to output in ”group post clip”?
We'd suggest you use Resolve Colour Management instead. There's no need to use CSTs for colour management unless there is something very specific you are trying to achieve. But to answer your question, yes you could place the CST pre clip. You could even put the CST Out in the timeline node tree as all your clips will likely be in a common working space.
I wish there was a non-adjustment layer option "between" post-group and timeline. When you want the same creative look for all your clips, but want the classic Rec709 look on all your shots before. Would make it much easier when working with multiple color profiles. Like right now I have a documentary with FX3, DJI, Panasonic, iPhone, 360 camera and a handycam. Since I want the same look on all clips, but don't want it spreaded out on multiple post-groups, I have to do it as an adjustment layer. However, when fixing single clips, the adjustment layer will always be the first clip in color page (because it is on top). Therefore, issue.
Hello, there’s an easy fix. Put it on its own layer consistently, then ALT click that layer in the colour page to exclude it from the clips. Its effects will still be visible, but it will not be included in the clips panel. Remember it’s alt click on the layer label in the timeline viewer on the color page. Does that make sense?
Yes, that's exactly what I am referring to. In the bleach bypass video we apply a film emulation lut inside of a Colour Managed Workflow. It will show you how to do it.
We'll make a video on our recording process. In the meantime here's some info for you: Camera: Kinefinity Mavo LF Lens: 25mm Zeiss Milvus Superspeed Audio: Tentacle Track E Microphone: We've been using the stock Tentacle Microphone but are about to switch to the Sennheiser MKE 2. You'll probably see it in the next release. Lights: Aputure F22C, T2C, MC Screen Recording: Blackmagic Video Assist 12G 7" Thanks for watching and commenting.
As professionals which can trust in every video published, probably you could solve me a doubt and an issue, in some video formats, when we want use fusion a tracker for example when we changed from edit to fusion window the video shrinks and the checkered background shows on, and when I change to edit tab once more the video remains shrinked with a black background around the media used, how it can be solved?
Hello! Thanks for watching. A fusion comp with a transparent background (indicated by the checkerboard) will show up as black when you go back to the edit page if there isn't anything behind it. That's expected behaviour. Try putting a clip on the track below to see if it's visible in the black areas. As regards the sizing issue, I'm sure there's an explanation but it's difficult to diagnose without more information!
Thank you for the video. If i typically apply 2 CST Nodes in a clip (Beginning and End), and i would like to use Groups, will this mean that i apply the first CST node in the Pre-clip and the second CST in the Post-Clip. Because if i apply them at a Clip Level, it would mean any Looks that i create using Curves in Post-Clip will be done after the Rec 709 is applied in the 2nd CST, and this may not be the best way to do it.
@@team2films I have started using Resolve only a few months ago. My own feeling from watching a number of videos here at youtube is that CST just might be a slightly better way of managing colors at Resolve instead of RCM, espically if i am using different cameras for the same project. Please feel free to correct or guide me if i am wrong. Also curious to know the answer to my earlier question about using Pre and Post clip in 1st and 2nd CST. Thank you so much !!
@@RohitGrover42 Yes your conclusions about CSTs in group grades is correct. If you applied the final OUT CST in the clip level then any post-clip grades would be in the deliverable colour space. There's a lot of noise about colour management on UA-cam. Have you watched our masterclass on colour management? ua-cam.com/video/w0ubDSzEEYg/v-deo.html In short, CSTs use the same maths as RCM, so it's the same image but it's packaged in a more convenient form. Instead of having to manually create CST nodes in your grade, it handles colour management in the background. It works great with footage in different colour spaces.
@@team2films Thank you. I’ll certainly watch this video. I really enjoy watching videos from your channel. There are always direct and to the point and explain issues from the point of view of the learner.
@@udeydeepkhokhar1298before the clip grade or after the clip grade. Different types of grades get applied in a certain order. Timeline grades are always the last. Group grades can go before or after the clip grade. Hope that helps
