    15 / 15! BUTTTTTTT I always forget to rename my shape masks. So I feel like it's really a 14.5 / 15. You definitely need to keep this series going.

      Sometimes I get lazy as well and forget haha. But I also usually use Color Finale 2 Pro, so I'm normally labeling in there. Thanks for watching, my dude! 👊🏼 I'll keep the series going.

    Nice! I forgot about Shift Z and learned something new with the option (and then drag).
    Is there a way to have the Range Check 'all' stay enabled? I hate have to go turn on all the time.
    I hope Apple listens to you on the name change - I would really like to label all my color wheels with names.
    I purchased your course maybe 5 months ago and have been through it 4 times, taking notes and screen captures. I just take things to the color correction point via using Phantom LUT for the Rec 709. My results are exactly what I want, I can work very quickly (via a made preset), and most importantly I understand the process and what I'm doing. The Hue/Sat curves are no longer a mystery either.
    I was really frustrated this past year+ trying to learn this stuff because EVERYONE on UA-cam did it differently. Your course is terrific. In a sea of never ending stuff to buy I can say that this was my best purchase last year. PS - Dylan goes and talks much slower on the course than he does on these videos...(and you can skip right over the Color Finale segments if you don't have that).

      I really appreciate you saying that, my friend! So, so glad you loved the course 😊 A lot of people on UA-cam seem to not know exactly what they're doing so I made sure to try and give as definitive answer as possible for students. Thanks so much for leaving a comment about it!

  • @KillianMurphyMedia
    @KillianMurphyMedia 8 місяців тому

    Hey Dylan. Love your tips and tricks videos. Just wondering reflecting back on the part 1 video using the index tab for clips. Is there a way to sort this list alphabetically? I do a lot of wedding editing and shoot everything in slog 3 across 3 different cameras but was wondering if there was a way where i could copy effects applied to clips either with the same name (different ranges used in the same clip) or clips that were shot one after the other in the same environment? Im trying to speed up my grading and if the index list could be sorted alphabetically that would speed things up for me as currently im just looking for similar clips in the timeline and using the cmd+shift V method which isn’t as fast as I would like. Any help or tips to speed this up would be greatly appreciated 👍

    • @dylanjohndickerson
      @dylanjohndickerson  7 місяців тому

      Hey man! Thanks for the kind words. So you could hit copy c on the clip with the effects, search the beginning file name of those clips you want to apply, select them bit hitting Command A, and then hit command shift V.
      Ah just realized that this method isn't fast enough for you. What you're talking about is grouping all those clips and when you change one, you change them all. There is a feature in Color Finale 2 Pro that offers that exact thing if you're interested. geni.us/ColorFinale
      If that sounds like what you're looking for, you can get the plugin 50% off as a student of my FCP/Color Finale Color Grading Masterclass
      www.fcpcolorgradingmasterclass.com
      If not, no worries at all. I'm not sure there's a way to alphabetize without searching in the index.
