Thanks for this advice! Never used HDR wheels because thought they are for HDR content, but now I see how useful they are.
You're welcome
i have been learning from u more than 3 year...this kind of beginners tutorial very useful to revise once again...Thank u so much♥
I couldn’t agree more. And I always appreciate the love brother.
Really helpful as always and now I will use HDR pallette. Thank you Qazi. Happy Ramadan❤
Happy to help brother. Happy Ramadan
It's an absolutely clear information. Dope!
Thank you.
I've had a Eureka moment this week while grading two commercials, when it comes to maximizing the dynamic range (especially in the highlights) without sacrificing the pop on the talent. I already knew about highlights and shadows sliders in the primary tab but it's really after pushing them on these projects that I really started seeing the power of it ! I also like to introduce, prior to my primaries node, a dedicated HL node with a luma qualifier whenever needed, and play with highlights slider (down) + highlights or specular HDR wheel up, to really do the push & pull and start getting more detail in the very bright highlights :D Also, I found out that when creating a grad in the sky to pull it down, the Light wheel in HDR works really nicely !
That's the thing about knowing too many tools. Sometimes you forget which one to use in a specific situation. 😂
@@theqazman Yeah right ? xD
Working on 8 bit videos every. This video is very helpful to me. Thanks brother.
Happy to help.
Happy that I found myself to be in the ‘less pro’ category - time to move to real pro! Thanks for breaking down these tools Qazi!
Nice tutorial.. am a new colorist pls I will love you to also drop the videos u re using to teach so we can work with it too.
Thank YOU, Qazi! With your toturials I improve my grading skills from absolute zero in video coloring to some kind of midlle in one month!!! And it's just with your youtube videos! When I have a problem with some aspects, I'm trying and thinking, how to fix it, spending hours, but in next day you just dropping down video that explain everithing in right way! Looks like the Universe helping me with your hands! Thank you so much!!!
Ha ha. That’s perfect. Happy to help brother.
@@theqazman Thank you again) and have a great time, god bless)
Love the new edit style....
Thank you. It's a lot of work but it's definitely worth it.
Adams Zone System, I literally clapped out loud when you explained it. As a beginner, that information really helped me understand what the wheels were actually doing! Thank you Qazi, I am enjoying your Masterclass and am learning tons!
Haha. FCM fam. ✊🏾
This is exactly my biggest problem I've ever had when it comes to color grading, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS TUTORIAL❤❤
Let's go! 💪🏾
Your video never disappoints
Always appreciate the love, brother. 💪🏾
Thank you for teaching me how
Of course bro
perfect!
Thanks
With access to such capbilities with HDR panel, why/when would I choose to use the Primary LGG anymore? I feel like I have wildly more control with HDR but I still see so many colorist on YT still using Primaries primarily - am I missing something?
Time and place for every tool.
What is the input color space for black magic pocket 4k and 6k?? This video was very helpful
Can u do a "how to get the look of john wick chapter 4" in the near future? I feel like they specifically stepped up their game on that one and their style feels a little bit different to previous installments. I‘d love to recreate that specific movie grade for future shots 😊
if this is for a beginner, then I 'm a ... baby?
😂 it's all good.
@@theqazman One day I'll learn. one step at the time
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hey Qazi, have a question you may have answered already but here it is.
I am grading C-Log Footage and want to use the Kodak 2383 LUT like you do in some of your tutorials. I go through the process of using CST to convert from Clog to Davinci Wide Gamut and then DWG to Cineon then apply the LUT after that CST. The greens and blues in my image are insanely saturated and looks way off. I can repair and balance by removing saturation in HDR or Curves but sometimes I just can’t get it to look correctly. Is there a reason why this could be occurring? Thank you in advance
Explorer today. I like it. You have an impressive collection brewing.
😀
Do the HDR wheels in "CLIPS" read Color Space Transform nodes that are on that said clip's "GROUP"?
Appreciate these tutorials as we're in the early stages of migrating from Premiere to DaVinci. Sorry if this is slightly off topic, but part of integrating this into our workflow is going from ProRes RAW which is natively read in Premiere, to dealing with a transcoded ProRes 4444 file that I can begin coloring in DaVinci. Many of your tutorials recommend using the CST to kick off and ultimately end your grade. Is this still relevant after laundering the source so much, or would you approach another way? (on a Mac Studio using DR 18) Thanks!
as long as the clip stays in log, yes it is applicable.
Is HDR palette good for 8 bit footage ?
Qazi i'm 5 fingers away to buy your master classe. This video is dope still emphasizing how as we begginer should not do much
Make it happen. 😀
⚡After reopening the project with a similar node structure (translation to Wide Gamut and output to REC 709), bright destructive glare appeared in the image in light areas. Why did this happen and how to deal with it?
Great tutorial !! Just one doubt, What Color Management settings did you use? Thanks in advance
DWG
That was usefull
Happy to help brother.
I have a strange question, I really hope you see this. I'm trying to recreate the look of a movie called Split Second from 1992. It's a Cyberpunk film. Whatever I try though it just looks like a crisp image that I'm trying to distort, as opposed to the way that film actually looked. Is it really just about me having to film it with one of those old cameras to match the exact look with proper lighting? Or can I do it in post?
Great content as always 😍.
What I'm always wondering, if I set up my project to be in Davinci wide gamut/intermediate...
I don't have to do the CST on every clip right? It's basically the same, whenever I tell Davinci what footage these clips where shot on by right clicking on the clips?
Because you almost always use the node CST and not the project one. I'm just a bit confused. Because this seems more simple
project wide might be simpler, but it has more limitations and if you want to know more about that watch, my free training link is in the description of my videos
what transition pack are you using? Love them!
Don’t remember the exact name but it’s from motion VFX
just watching your free training and it says it's about DVR 17. I have version 18. Has the course been updated? Thanks so much!
Partly but most of the rules apply regardless.
8:44 is that a radiohead reference ? 👀
Do these HDR wheels replace the technique you use with the Glow effect to boost the mids and bring out color in the skin and environment? Like in the video you graded of the red haired girl on a bike.
No they don't.
When I buy Davinci studio 18 … do I have to buy 19 when it is released?
Yes
Does this HDR tool work as good for 8 bit footages?
Try it for yourself.
When I am watching a film, I am more for the contents then beginners mistakes.
Such a good day when my beginner ass realises that I am doing all the "pro" ways while I used to have minus 100 confidence on my colourist techniques.
Happy Ramadan......
Happy Ramadan, brother.
❤❤🎉🎉
"Because beginners push everything" xD hahaha
😂
dude.... wth.
I agree totally that this is NOT a beginner video. Sorry, but you need to go back to the drawing board to do an actual beginner video.
1st
love hoe brother
Happy that I found myself to be in the ‘less pro’ category - time to move to real pro! Thanks for breaking down these tools Qazi!
Great attitude keep pushing brother.
