In this video I explain what kind of Node Tree you can use for every project in Davinci Resolve
Before you start a project it's super important getting a good node tree in place to give your project structure.

I just wanted to let you know, I've been using this colour grading tutorial for everything for the last 4 months, and it's absolutely been a godsend for me. Thank you so much!
Great to hear!
Ok. How do i do color space transform if i am recording on gopro12 5k with flat colors profile, it should be already in rec709@@runhaar1
*Finally, someone from the industry that shows us how it's done correctly. Thanks. Subscribed!*
Appreciate it 👏
I click this video，and then I saw the two fingers glove, I put down the snacks with humble heart.
IMPORTANT - You can create your look inside of the CST's (add a serial node before the last CST). It will give you more flexibility as you are working in the DWG colorspace. If you do it after the second CST (rec 709), you can only make minor adjustments as you'll be working in a smaller colorspace.
Also - Best to put the "Texture Node" in a serial and not in a parallel.
Can you post a link to download this powergrade for everyone? Thx!
Working post CST also would also yields a higher potential to push things out of gamut. The CST helps keep everything inside the delivery gamut.
you gotta change to Cineon Film Log though before the LUT, right? regulating the gain of the LUT is weird though because with or with the compound node, it behaves overly strange...
@@hannestell If you use the davinci LUTS yeah. You should check out Cullen Kelly's channel. I think he made a Kodak 2838 LUT that has a DWG input and output. (free download). So you just chuck it on a node in between your cst's
yea it was weird why you added the look after clipping down to 709. Might as well do the 709 LUT only once so you don't accidentally throw away data that could have been useful (e.g. highlights)
From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much for this tutorial! I have been really trying to learn color grading well for past 2 years. This is THE ONE tutorial that finally helped me lots!
Love to hear it!
I've been. Learning to colour grade on and off for over year now - subscribed to all the big colour channels but I randomly found your video today and it is like magic. The footage I had previously graded looks MILES better using this technique - this actual knowledge i can build on to get better. God bless you man!!!
Fantastic! Happy I could help 😊 Let the grading begin!
@@runhaar1 dude 100% agree with this. i found you yesterday and have been up all night playing around with film looks!! amazing
Same here!
Took you way less words than other channels to explain this workflow, without losing any key information. Very clear video! Thanks
Glad to hear it! I try to get the info across and quickly as I can and not waste anyones time :)
One of the best I've found, everything you need to know and includes project settings and node structure - excellent! Thanks very much. 🙏
One of the best and most useful color grading tutorials I have found and I've watched at least one hundred! Thank you very much!
Your CST explanation and workflow are the best I’ve seen from any YT video. Thanks, subscribed!
This and Juan Melara's ;-)
Runhaar this has saved me HOURS! and is the only node structure I use. Your a great teacher that SHOWS and explains everything well. From day 1 of using this node structure my clients have been WOWED. I hope to book a one on one with you in the future. Defiently WORTH IT!
I tried this today on one of my projects and made my footage look so fire! I can't thank you enough for making this video my man!
Great to hear!
finally someone who is actually showing us how to do it properly!!! thank you
I just created a step by step note on my phone from this video. I kept coming back to yours because it's so helpful. ive made two videos with color grades all thanks to you. You rock!!
You have the most similar approach to the workflow I've been thinking about for over 3 years. It is a very good lecture. So cool! Dope.
Great video mate! You explained everything very well. Only note I have is to be cautious of putting texture/spatial fx in a parallel node. You can get some funky effects from time to time. They’re better off left in a serial node.
Finally, there is a clear and straightforward explanation/ tutorial on how to set up node tree. This video really saves me. Thanks very much.
Thank you for taking the time to teach us your knowledge in this area, this is the best video I've come across on color grading!
Appreciate the kind words 🙏
This is the most insightful video I have ever seen on an industry standard workflow. This answered all the questions I have with understanding colour space transform. Absolute legend!
Happy to Help!
Love the video! Thanks for posting
Thank you for this tutorial and not wasting anyones time with superfluous drivel, this was informative and straight to the point. Very glad to have stumbled onto your channel!
I am a total newbie to Davinci, making films, etc. I don't really know what is going on here, I sort of have an idea, but I feel that I can learn from your channel as this has already given me an idea of node trees. Simple. Straightforward, straight to the point. Thank you. Subbed.
THX Runhaar - you're simply the best!! Short & simple, straight to the point and excellent explanation of the critical points! Your node tree is the killer!!
I've just tried this on a test project. Thanks so much! This really makes sense.
One of the most helpful tutorials that I've ever come across. Thank you!
You just changed my colorgrading life! Thank you so much!!
Runhaar, thank you so much for sharing a real meat! I'm quite an experienced videographer just getting into the color grading. I got experience from photo editing, the fundamental principles are the same, but this workflow is something based on experience and practice, which is priceless.
Happy I could help!
One of the best Davinci workflow videos I have seen so far. Thanks for sharing.
You're a life saver man!! This rules so much, thank you!
This has been the best video I’ve seen so far about setting up DaVinci node trees
this was by far the most helpful tutorial on node structures. thank you
At first I thought this tutorial was going to be impossible, now I realize that it’s not only impossible to learn but, beyond what I thought I could do. Thanks for giving me the MacGyver version.
Love how you’ve completely changed the way I work with davinci. Now I can actually work on footage the correct way so I don’t have to be ashamed when I have to send it to a colorist after I’ve worked on things first 😂😂
Haha, Happy to help! You might even teach them a thing or two :)
Very useful and well explained. I immediately tried that on the project I was working on. And that's very effective.
THIS IS SO SO GOOD! Thank you for making this 😄👊
Brilliant - I've had to lecture people with who don't know the difference between correction and grading and its as fundimental as framing a shot or lighting!
Great vid! I just finished watching Darren Mostyn's node structure tutorial, and both are almost identical. Its great to see two pros on the same page, gives us newbie's confidence.
Yeah, is this an industry standard because Darrens video is literally IDENTICAL to this
I learned a lot from the UA-cam channel which discusses davinci resolve, courses, and discussions with friends, and it took me a long time to understand, and now I understand better thanks to you. In the end you explained very well the basic and fast usage of this node. Thank You
Great to hear!
So subtle and quick! Loved it!
This is by far the best video on color grading I have seen. Much respect 🙏
Thanks Emmanuel
THANK YOU for finaly cutting it down to essentials.
Thank you so much! You got a new subscriber.
Thank you so much for this … node structure is pretty confusing and this makes it really clear and easy to implement.
This is incredibly helpful. Even though I'm new, this added a big leap in understanding how to think about workflow. Thank you!
Love to hear it!
Thank you very much! That is really a great starting point for beginners, at least for me!
New to Da Vinci and this just made sense! Dankie meneer!
Thx! I'm a bit giddy, this is the tree I have been learning on, minus the parallels, even tried the kodak 2383 look but like doing the curves more. Now I can see it more clearly and I hope get better more consistent results.
The best. Thanks a lot! This is exactly what I needed.
Wow! Great tutorial. I'm currently grading a short-film and this has really elevated my work. Thanks!
Goodluck with your short! Happy it helped you.
Dude, you are an amazing teacher, don't stop making videos please. I watch all of your videos now and have learned so much more now than months with other guys
Appreciate you!
It's difficult to find true teachers on youtube. Your video is clear, concise and gives me confidence in moving forward. Thank you very much.
You're very welcome!
Thankyou so much, this is the only video I need to understand nodes as a new editor
Very helpful, man. Thanks a lot! Cheers from Italy
Wow. I need to rewatch this and follow along to fully understand. Mind blowing
I watched this when you dropped it and thought it was too much for me and yt, then I saw dunna mention Davinci intermediate and came back to follow this step by step.
GAME CHANGER!!
Thanks for sharing this. I’m colorblind and color has been an absolute nightmare.
Happy to help!
As a new DaVinci user looking to integrate this into my premiere workflow, I found this super helpful and straightforward. Especially the point about most of the data being in the DaVinci Wide Gamut space as well. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you very much. I have now got this structure locked. Amazing work man..!
i'm so beginner to using davinci resolve for my color grading process. finally i understand how to use node correctly. Thank you sir ❤️
Thanks. Always looking to improve my process and this was helpful ✌🏾
Keep coming back to this after months, best tutorial
Thanks a lot Sir 🎉
I come from the audio mixing world and we call this approach top down mixing. Making our broad and big strokes of eq change and compression at the end of our chain and tailoring each instrument to that. I’ve just started playing with Davinci resolve since the new iPhone and shooting everything in log. 2024 my goal is to have higher quality instagram reels and your channel has been a great resource of inspiration and information
This is such a good video man. Thank you.
thank you for your tutorials.
keep going.
Best direction on how the Nodes work. Glad I found this video. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for sharing your workflow! This is extremely helpful 👏
Really great video. I've learned so much from this.
Thx a lot , you helped me so much u dont even know.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Really well explained and straight to the point. Subbed! :D Thanks man!
You are very straight forward and stick to within DaVinci.. I loved it.. because the other creators only use their own/other's paid film look lut, which is not suitable for learners.. i found 10-12 video concept within one video by you only... very very thanks mate.. ❤❤.. it's time as well as money saving....
amazing video, clear and so helpful.
muchas gracias mi amigo tu estructura me ha ayudado full

I NEVER comment on anything, but this video is the only one that REALLY worked, Thanks
Saw many tutorials on this, but they just teach you to copy paste, I am so glad to find this video to really get to know why we took any step. Thank you so much, Subbed !!!!!
Glad you got some value out of it!
What an absolute legend you are! Thank you for this video mate, a game changer for me ! All the best :)
You're welcome!
Very Helpful ! Thank you!
I watch a crapload of UA-cam vids on color grading. This was by far the best I’ve encountered. Thank you :)
Glad it was helpful!
@@runhaar1 Could you make a video on how to create a good "look"? That's the only thing that's soooo hard to find. I can't find anything anywhere, really.
Needed this! Thank you 🙏🏽
Awesome !
thank you! this brought a lot of insight 🙌
best video to explain how to apply 2383 color lut i have ever seen before
Nicely explained. lods of information in a single video.
Well done 👌❤
Brilliant Video. Thank you 🙏
Thank you so much! After going through all these guys who are sponsored or selling their own grades its so exhausting when i just wanted to know the ins and outs and this is the one that helps me most! Epic. ❤ subscribed..
Happy to help!
That Glove told me I have come to the right place. Thanks a million for this Master Tutorial.
😂
Well explained - easy to understand 👍
Dudeeeeeee love this!!!! You simplified the process!!!! I am going to save this tree as a template to use on my projects! I hate it when some ppl go nuts creating complicated trees! (of course I know some projects need such a crazy node trees... but not all projects! ) Thank you! cheers! (subbed!)
Fantastic, love to hear it!
@@runhaar1 no problem! I'd love to see (if you can ...) an explanation of when & why use different wheels: primary/Log/HDR... I am asking "cause you used the HDR wheels to do the basic primary corrections... I thought HDR wheels were not supposed to be used for that..🤔 (obviously I was wrong! 😂 ). One last thing: correct me if I am wrong... you suggest to do first he conversions beginning & end: with CST's, then manipulate the cineon/LUT combo and finally work in between...? Or the compound (lut/cineon) is the last thing we do...? (hope my question is not too confusing! hers! :)
excellent tutorial ... very well explained
