- Smooth and flawless skin is essential in various genres such as ad films, fashion films, and music videos. It ensures that individuals on screen look their best while minimising distractions. By utilising skin retouching techniques, filmmakers can enhance the quality and appearance of skin tones, creating a polished and natural look that captures the audience's attention and amplifies the intended message. In this video we introduce the free Skin Refining PowerGrade for DaVinci Resolve-a game-changing tool designed to achieve professional-grade skin refinement effortlessly, even on the free version of DaVinci Resolve.

What is Colorist Factory
► A lot of false advertising in the name of "cinematic look" pushed us to form Colorist Factory to simplify color grading for storytellers.
the disclaimer is quite cute - thank you!
Thank you so much for providing such a powerful tool! Your assistance is greatly appreciated.
Hi, I love your work, I've learned a lot from you Thank You! I have a funny question but I've been trying to figure it out in some form or so, Question: Is it possible to recover highlights using blend modes or so? could we stack the same clip over each other and play around with blend modes to recover highlights in the sky etc. similar to how we do stacking in photography, with different exposures.... is this a technique in film?
Hi. Thanks for so much info in your channel. I downloaded the Skin-refine Power Grade for Resolve but I don´t truly understand where to find it to apply it. How to install it. Could you please help. (Sorry noob here)
We need it for Premiere 😢
Just ditch premiere. Davinci resolve is far better.
Hi I tried dropping your plugin in Da Vinci 17 but the node tree didn't show up like it had in the video
Hmmm...where's the SkinRefine download link? (Update); Nevermind, I had to go to your official website and found it under the "Blog" tab...thanks!
Hi! I downloaded the PowerGrade but in the node tree, the Lut is not included after the CST node. Am I doing something wrong? :( Thank you!
CST is custom I believe... u can do without it too!
common guys! make a tutorial on getting oppenheimer look!
With all due respect that is a really bad tool. Like an amateur's first attempt to retouch skin. You just blur the skin and actually the whole image. Oh and btw, covering freckles is always considered as bad skin retouch.
I would disagree with that. Specifically because it’s created after studying resolve’s skin OFX, which carries out same operations, losing out on ever more skin details overall. The process power-grade follows also - to an extent - replicates one of the most commonly used techniques in photoshop. Apologies for overly simplifying the concept, in the voice over. The grade is sophisticated in its execution, but what it does conceptual still is a pretty simple and commonly used technique.
Ofcourse there are better techniques out there! And maybe even more to videos to come on the same. But even then, the value proposition would be trying to give tools that can run without “Studio” version.
Another point I would like to add is that - if you have some knowledge of power-grades and nodes in resolve, you can repurpose the way detail frequencies are separated. For example, if you were to reset the Color selection node and place the details node opacity to somewhere between 320-330, you’ll end up replicating Davinci’s spatial noise reduction. Another one! if you were to keep the selection limited to skin and increase “details” node opacity, you will end up over sharpening the pore details - mostly over-baking textures on skin and replicating a “Lighthouse” (Eggar’s) like skin texture.
@@ColoristFoundry I for one appreciate you guys making this stuff and giving this information alongside a wealth of others. I think its a bit spoilt for some to expect something thats perfect.
Thank you for the high quality format, information and professionalism you display to the audience, even some of the rude ones in this comments section
This is overly complicated and not that sophisticated, Its lucky it is free Certainly wouldn't pay for it. I might download it and improve on it, which will be easy.
Goodluck🏅
Meh there is a blurry feel on all your "afters", there is reasons why you can't create a good plugin for it, skin retouching is very complex. at 1:10 we can even see a color aberation that your plugin added by adding back the details.
you make a killer product, but you tech support is awful. after multiple emails trying to get a download link still not even one response. these are paid plugins so you think there would be some kind of support.
