I’ve seen so many good things on UA-cam, but let me tell you something it’s so far one of the best video I’ve seen since I Color grade . Thank you so much for sharing … this video is a game changer🙌
Adding a Colour Space Transform (with Cineon Film Log as the Output Gamma) node before the - pause - LUT node = 🤯👏👏👏 Brilliant as always - thanks so much Joris 🙏🏻
Perfect timing, I was about to start searching for tutorials on the topic and you just posted. Thank you, it was very helpful!! Can't wait to start making videos
This the colour space on my iPhone footage BT.2020 HLG (9-18-9)..Could you please explain the fist steps to start colour grading this kind of footage please? Do we need colour space transformation for this too? it would be nice if you could explain how to colour grade normal iPhone footages.. thanks
Thanks mate, very helpful! I´m shooting Fuji F-log2 (Prores HQ 10-bit) and since there is no Fuji gamma yet available, someone recommended using REC 2020 gamma. Works fine for now.
Thanks for the cinematic look tutorial, Joris. One obs from my experience with timeline output gamma. REC.709 gamma 2.4 is for broadcast (TV) and REC.709 gamma 2.2 is for internet (YT, etc)
Have found your channel recently as I want to learn to edit on DaVinci Resolve.. have been editing on Premiere Pro for the past 4 years and to color grade in it is literally hell as compared to what I see in Resolve. Your tutorials are great and sense of humour too.. you've gained yourself a new sub as I hope to start editing on DaVinci Resolve.
@@JorisHermans I am switching now. I have several projects under belt with resolve and now am dreading working in premiere. I was just tired of fighting with my timeline and choppy playback. Even with a monster PC. Resolve plays like watching TV even with no proxies.
Damn! I came into this video thinking "I already know what he's gonna say" but then your old way matched my current way. You've just leveled up my grades and I'm so glad I watched!
Or you can drop layer mixer after cineon. Set mixer to color. Drop same print on both nodes. Decreasing key value of upper node will kill the contrast & bottom node to kill color. Or there are plenty of 3rd party plugins that works without converting to cineon.
Is the following correct then: create correction/balance node(s) > Color transform node (slog to Cineon) > 2 serial nodes one on top of the other (both with the same film lut) > layer mixer - right click on this mixer chose composite mode>color. Highlight the top node of the 2 lut nodes. Go down and press the "Key" icon above the color wheels. (Here is where I am having a little trouble) I see no change if I change the "Key input" >gain parameter. I do with "Key output" >gain parameter when the top node is highlighted. And it seems to be getting the proper result. Am I doing it wrong? How do you adjust color with the bottom node? Thank you.
Darren's way that you showed works fine and takes the gamma curve down, but it also lowers the film colors at the same time. If you put the LUT on a layer node with the LUT on top and the same LUT under it , you can change the composite mode of the layer mixer to color. Then when you change the input gain of the top node down and it lowers just the gamma curve down. Adjust to taste. Film stock emulation is a combination of hues and gamma curves - if you do the method you showed the hues are also subdued which is okay if that's what you want, but for most the over doing part is the gamma curve.

@@editor4958 Sorry, yes you are doing it correctly. I typed the instructions above by memory and incorrectly typed the input gain. It is actually the "Key output gain". I have edited it in my comment above to show that correction. Good call
Great video. Totally new to Da Vinci Resolve so perhaps this questions makes no sense however trying anyway....my timeline consists of many clips - do I need to repeat these steps for all the clips separately? Or can I copy these edits to all clips and from there make changes in the node key per clip?
Hey Joris! Nice Video and explanation how to use built-in LUT with Cineon. One quetion to your LUTs: do I need to apply Cineon Film Log node before using your LUTs or they should be applyed without that additional node. Thanks!
Hi Joris, Thank you so much for all videoes. They're really very helpful. Could you please help me with the ColorSpaceTransformation for DJI Mini 3 Pro which uses D-Cinelike. I use two serial nodes and do this. Do you recommend any changes to it please? Input node: Input color space: DJI D-Gamut Input gamma: DJI D-Log Output color space: DaVinci Wide Gamut Output gamma: DaVinci Intermediate Output node: Input color space: DaVinci Wide Gamut Input gamma: DaVinci Intermediate Output color space: Rec.709 Output gamma: Gama 2.4
@@jaysnappsmediallc Log profiles have bigger colour space than rec 709 is. And if you use rec 709 timeline, there is lot of colours that are out of rec709 colour space.
I'm going to have to play around with this. I normally make an adjustment layer before I do any color changes. This looks like a cool way to get color adjustments.
Great video but I'm a bit confused. I have a canon M50 and shoot video in a neutral picture style (low contrast and saturation ) but I'm a bit clueless what to do then in Davinci. It's difficult to see what you're clicking on from the 9 minute mark on. Would you mind letting me know? Thanks Joris :)
Thanks heaps, u r one of the few creators left with teaching reall stuff and inspiring new film makers to improve their skills,, always great to watch 🙏. I wasn't kidding when I said I watch your videos more than Peter Mckn's 😬 these days .....
Hello Joris, What do you think about Color Science : DaVinci YRGB Color Managed for color grading automaticaly all your film without making adjustment for each clips ?
Hi, happy to find your channel. Great content. This film helped me to get good colors on my recent production, so happy. One question - I'm filming at the moment with Xiaomi Mi 11 lite. Have no idea what color space shall I use for it. Could you give me a hint? Or anyone else? Thanks!
Tried this with gopro footage, this is already rec709 so the second easy way is my way to go. I didn't get the expected result but after a while, i realized in my project settings the timeline color space was set to rec709 (scene). I changed it to rec709 gamma 2.4 and this was much better. 😅
Excuse in have questions, my body sony a7 iv & i selected in picture profile gama : cine4 in my camera , but for color transform in davinci I don’t know what select object for gama ?! I didn’t find cine4 , i thinking maybe different name … Thanks for response
Hello, excellent, we don't speak English but graphically we understood your video, we will use a translator. In CST, what is the difference in configuring the OUTPUT COLOR SPACE and the OUTPUT GAMMA between "Use time-line and Rec 709" in the case of not applying the LUTS of film looks? Thank you!!! 👍
So, just to be sure, the REC 709-A makes just sense if working on a Mac? No addional functionality or better color consisteny (as 709 2.4) when using on a PC?
Thanks for The color tutorial. Was this how you color graded your M50 footage? and can I use this method on M50 footage shot in the neutral color profile ?
Thank you for this video, I just have one quick question Why shoot in LOG If you going to change it to rec 709, ? Should you just shoot in rec 709 and skip the whole LOG conversion part ? ☺
Shooting in LOG will give you a ton more dynamic range and room to color grade your footage. You'll be more limited when color grading rec.709 footage...
"These -pause- LUTs..."
Don't forget to make that pause... 🤨😅
too funny
,,,,,, otherwise you'll be talking about "the sluts"... 🙂 I do it all the time when tell my wife about my color grading techniques....
HAHAHAHAHA
UA-cam's captions put "the [ _ ]" once when I guess you didn't pause enough 😅
Lmfaoooo
Does this work on iPhone footage ?
I’ve seen so many good things on UA-cam, but let me tell you something it’s so far one of the best video I’ve seen since I Color grade . Thank you so much for sharing … this video is a game changer🙌
Thanks! Much appreciated! 👊🏻💥
That's right... actually
Joris did you have video how to do that lut/color grading settings will apply to many clips which you have in time line?
Adding a Colour Space Transform (with Cineon Film Log as the Output Gamma) node before the - pause - LUT node = 🤯👏👏👏
Brilliant as always - thanks so much Joris 🙏🏻
for mac?

Thank you very much for your tutorial. It was extremly useful to me. Cheers,
What would be the color management settings for Fuji footage or pictures that are not F-Log?
Just skip that step, your footage is already rec.709
If you want extra stop of dynamic range you have to use davinci vide gamut (or sony slog) colour space in timeline. And output of timeline rec 709.
I ALWAYS want extra DR 😬🙏🏻
I noticed that clog 3 gets about 1/3 - 1/2 extra stops dynamic range if timeline colorspace is clog 3.
Wait, can you explain this in detail Henrikki?
@@jaysnappsmediallc Log profiles have bigger colour space than rec 709 is. And if you use rec 709 timeline, there is lot of colours that are out of rec709 colour space.
