00:18 🎥 The video discusses the color grading process in DaVinci Resolve for beginners. 01:12 🌈 Setting the color management in DaVinci Resolve to the appropriate color space and output is crucial. 01:54 🖥 Use Mac display color profiles for viewers to ensure consistency between editing and final export colors. 02:21 🎨 Adding nodes and using LUTs can help adjust the initial color space and improve exposure. 03:17 ⚙ Adjusting settings like white balance, contrast, and color tones can enhance the overall image. 05:08 📊 Fine-tuning settings for highlights, mid-tones, and shadows can improve image quality. 07:01 ✨ Adding effects like sharpness and glow can enhance the visual appeal of the video. 08:44 🌅 Adjusting the color balance and highlights can create a unique look for the video. 11:19 🖼 Adding a vignette can focus attention on the subject and balance the lighting. 12:57 🌟 Using noise reduction techniques can help clean up the image while preserving details.
After watching many tutorials on color grading I’ve determined it’s basically just an overpowered Hue/Saturation slider, no matter the LUTs used any adjustment to a wheel will always wash the entire image in one overwhelming color. It’s leagues easier to just film the shot with the proper settings than spend hours on a color slider.
I mean sure, but you're gonna be quite limited on your results. If you're experiencing the fact that it's all giving washed out with one color you might wanna do a little bit of research on color theory. Other than that, yeah, you can shoot. All in camera and just go and raw dog. It like that you're just gonna be creatively limited. To what your camera can produce in camera.
I think you think this because you’re filming in 8 bit 709. Yes, if you’re crushing your dynamic range and colors, or your camera is very basic and can’t even shoot 8 bit log, then, yeah. Color grading is pretty much only for real cameras. Only IPhone JUST started letting you shoot in log
I'm really impressed with the final result, I'm actually using premiere pro, but I decided to learn color grading with davinci resolve so I can elevate my skills to another level, davinci's interface looks kind of alien but I like working with nodes so there's no big problem
Thanks for the vid, this got my foot in the door- got my vid well color corrected now! Now to figure out how to do a quick fade, then the video is ready to export. TY, sub earned!
It’s all in post! My a7siii only shoots 4K uhd 16:9, but then in post I use a 2:1 aspect ratio, so I lose a bit of resolution off the top but that’s ok
Super explanation. How do I get the edits across all my clips now? Edit: Found my answer. Click on the ones I want to match, Right click and Apply grades or Click on the graded one and hold Shift to apply the previous steps to multiple
Haha, it's enjoyable to see ourselves improve the results of our old work. Your node tree would probably be better if you observe color grading channels like Darren Mostyn, Cullen Kelly, etc. But I'm sure everyone has their own time to develop!
Damn i guess i gotta start watching videos to understand this video XD. Wanting to learn how to color grade but I dont even know what nodes or luts are. is it the same process even without log footage? the files are so big and im not a pro so i just use the normal recording mode.
Everything I talk about can apply to any sort of footage, log just gives you more flexibility in pushing your image. You’ll just want to make sure your working in the correct color space
hey! how do you know where to put the node on the chain? like, in the begging of the video you added a node the middle of the two first nodes. Why? And at the end, you decided to put the node for noise reduction before every node you already had created... How do you make those kinds of decisions? Thanks
You can try out and see., like what happens if u add node in between.... What happens if u add denoise before the node ... And what happens if u add denoise after the node .....like.... U may Try n see... It's all layers.
It shouldn’t, the noise is already in the image, color grading may make it slightly more visible. However I show noise at the end because it is more taxing on your computer, and you don’t want to be editing or color grading with it enabled since it slows things down so much
@@MarcTaraz Bro I have already installed a deviancy resolve 17 but when i open deviancy it shows all the things big and also the color tab and fusion i select the project of 1920 by 1080 but when I create it then it show very small preview I have already reset the UI but it does not work
Thank you for this tutorial. It was very helpful. Is it possible to copy over the nodes/color grading to another clip? Let's say the following shot is of the woman crossing the street, but from a different camera angle or shot. How do you carry over the color grading changes to the next clip without having to manually grade all over again? Thank you.
You can! Click on the first click with the color grade you want, then hold shift or command to select the second clip. Right click on the first clip, and hit apply grade. And your grade will now be copied!
Just like layers in photoshop, you CAN put everything on one node if you so wish, but if you want to change any aspect of your grade after the fact or just 1 specific parameter, its a lot easier and nicer and more organized to do it on separate nodes. If you do everything on 1 node and one to change something, it could possibly change the entire grade and force to you to start from scratch, vs having things on different nodes that you can polar with constantly without making DRASTIC changes that you might regret. If you want a great one node tutorial, check out my most recent film look creator tutorial for the newest DaVinci resolve version!
I’m new to da DaVinci resolve, what is the purpose of adding a new node with each property? Is it for better management or does it affect the look of you change everything in one node?
Much like photoshop layers, it’s so you can work non destructively, as well as organize the grading process. In resolve, the earlier the node, the more its affects your grade. So major changes first, and then smaller incremental changes
Thank you! I’m glad you found it helpful! You can do this to any video footage, I color grade iPhone footage all the time. With LOG footage you just have more room to work with, and your image is less likely to tear apart when pushing a more intense color grade, but you can color grade any footage in any picture profile!
@@MarcTarazoh btw is this what I need to do for every luts that I import and try to my videos? :) Its not like photo where u just copy and paste LUTS? 😅
Select the clip you’ve color graded, and then select the clip you want to copy the color grade to by holding command or shift, and then right click on the color graded clip and select apply grade
Thanks for the video it really helped me to learned some tips. But I have a question since right now I dont have the filter. But how does the Glow Effect work with glow filters such as a ProMist?
I'm completely new to this. So how does the picture end up that grey like it was at the beginning. Because when I took a picture that I want to color grade, it already has some vibrant colors in it so it doesen't look that pale. But as it seems it's better at the beginning, when it's that grey, but how do I achieve this? pls help me
Thanks for this video! Very informative :) I've tried learning Davinci the last few days. Main issue I face is that when I use the selector to choose an area I want to change colors or change luminosity, once I touch it, the image becomes super "glitchy" when playing the video, like the software is not strong enough to compute all the images and doing the job properly. Any idea how to fix that? Thanks :)
Love the video. Quick one, re 11:03 minutes of the video, how do you do that zooming? I have never been able to find a short cut or even know how to zoom it. Please help 😢
Amazing video! How do I copy these settings to the next clip? And you go through eash feature very quickly, do you know any youtube videos that spend alittle more time to teach the newbies to Davinci like me? thanks Rob
Sorry for my lack of knowledge on this, but is there a way to copy this grading to apply it to other clips ? Is this what we call a custom LUT ? I am thinking that once the formula is created, it should be relatively easy to cut and paste it or save it to apply to other clips. It would be great to see how that is done. Thanks, it was very helpful and informative
Hello, great, sorry I don't speak English, I will use the translator,, 1. I would like to know if in preferences when you select "use Mac display color profile for viewers" Do we select it only when you have a Mac monitor?,,,, in my If I use a different monitor that is not a Mac, wouldn't there be a need to select that option?. 2. In the EXPORT tab would we have to select "REC 709 A" somewhere? or is it enough like you did in "Color Management", Thank you!!! 👍👍
My colours are always looking off when I watch it back on a different monitor, but I'm using an ASUS, what would I do to make it look the same? There isn't an option on my divinci that I can see at least 😁
Every monitor is different, the only way to get is the best is to get a color calibrated monitor, or exclusively grade with scopes. Personally I wouldn’t worry too much about minor variations in colors across alllll the different monitors in the world
Can you copy those settings for each little scene that you take ? For example if I took a non stop scene then cut it into my little edits instead of adding nodes to each little scene can I just copy it
Wait... using an A7S III and you're having problems with the noise? What ISO did you shoot at? That camera with the 12 megapixel sensor should have alleviated your worry for noise reduction. Unless you were shooting at an ISO too high.
Noise is present because of lack of available light. When youre running and gunning solo shooting at night with no consistent lighting, there is going to be noise without a light source. The a7siii is absolutely incredible, but also because its only 12 megapixels, noise is a bit more obvious compared to an a7iv for example with its 7k oversample. The noise is absolutely fine, I just want it to be as clean as possible because why not improve your footage to the max? And secondly this is a tutorial. Just because I don’t necessarily need it doesnt mean other people may not. It’s a useful thing to know about when you need it. Hope that helps!
soooooooooo you have to do this for every single clip your using for a video or is there way to apply it to everything and go back into it to micro adjust for certain parts ?
Thanks for the video! I really want to know how to color grade just to get true color. I know that's not a thing and very subjective 😅 but I do videos that include swatching nail colors. I'm not necessarily looking for a beautiful, cinematic edit. I just want my colors to look accurate. If you have any tips for that, I would love to hear them! 🙏💜
Can you apply these same nodes to multiple clips? I’m making UA-cam videos and have a lot of cut up scenes and it would take a year for me to apply all these edits to each one?
I'm pretty new to Davinci but have been on premiere for 3 years. I like the grade I just made following this but I'm wondering how to replicate it throughout the whole edit without having to do this to every single clip. Is there a quick way most youtubers do it then this would be the more professional way paid gigs do it? I also bought the LUTS, they really do look super good and like ARRI. Glad I purchased them.
You can copy the grade you did on one clip to all the other clips on your timeline in the color grading tab. If you have your clips viewable, you right click on your color graded clip, select all the clips you want to copy the grade to, and then right click and hit apply grade
@@MarcTaraz I was assuming so and did haha. Just have never graded this "hard" before 😆. Shots that were in a different area I copied and pasted the grade and made little changes on the temp and other sliders in the second node.
Hey Marc, I just wanted to say I took a little Screenshot of your video to explain to my viewers what Color Grading is and what it can look like when done right. I hope that's okay? I gave credit in the video itself and in my video description too.
I'm loving your presentation style! One question though, are your chosen settings geared towards Mac platforms or do they also work for Windows-based setups?
Thanks the video! : 709-A and "Use mac display color profiles for viewers" is only needed when using an Apple monitor, correct? I edit on a mac but don't use an Apple monitor and don't seem to have any issues.
Davinci crashed while rendering, then wouldn't launch, i tried every troubleshooting method on the internet, completely un installed and re installed multiple times but it still wont launch, i dont understand why as i have been using it for months with no issues, please help!
Hi, I hope you can answer this question soon. it's kind of time sensitive! when I am in color mode and I add the nodes!! Where it says library and setting top right side. Color space transformation. I can't add anything because it is not highlighted. I deleted my project and the free version hoping it would change! How can I change this? Thanks
Basic question .When we have video in d-cienema for adding luts and grading do we need always to add another nod? Lets say i have 30 -60 minutes video and i want add same lut to entire video .Lut is 90% colors but still we can add some grading video cant be too dark (low light) too brights overexppsedb ( day time)

I'm loving your presentation style! One question though, are your chosen settings geared towards Mac platforms or do they also work for Windows-based setups?
Thanks the video! : 709-A and "Use mac display color profiles for viewers" is only needed when using an Apple monitor, correct? I edit on a mac but don't use an Apple monitor and don't seem to have any issues.
The moment you hit the reset node grade, it automatically omits the settings on color space transform?
Thanks Marc! Fantastic tutorial!!!
Davinci crashed while rendering, then wouldn't launch, i tried every troubleshooting method on the internet, completely un installed and re installed multiple times but it still wont launch, i dont understand why as i have been using it for months with no issues, please help!
Could be because your hard drive is full or render cache is full, I had this issue in the past. I hope this helps
@@MarcTaraz my hard drive has space, but how do i empty my render cache if i cant open davinci at all?
Very nice guide)
Thanks😊
Really loved the content! Although this video is a year old, it is still very useful.
Hi, I hope you can answer this question soon. it's kind of time sensitive! when I am in color mode and I add the nodes!! Where it says library and setting top right side. Color space transformation. I can't add anything because it is not highlighted. I deleted my project and the free version hoping it would change! How can I change this? Thanks
Thank you ❤😊
2:32 my screen doesn’t have the drop down menu 🤔.
What if I'm on a PC? Can you include those settings also next time?
It will depend on your specific monitor, the reason why it’s simple with mac is because it’s built in.
Basic question .When we have video in d-cienema for adding luts and grading do we need always to add another nod? Lets say i have 30 -60 minutes video and i want add same lut to entire video .Lut is 90% colors but still we can add some grading video cant be too dark (low light) too brights overexppsedb ( day time)
Thanks! Great video for beginners. Very helpful!
Would have been nice to see at 2:30 where you click. For absolute beginner like me essential. Had to switch to another tutorial because of this.
