    About:
    I am a professional colorist and have worked with brands such as Prime Video, Adidas, Toyota, Vizio, etc. Outside client work, I run a color academy with over 6000 students. My channel mostly focuses on the taste-making (subjective) aspect of color grading. With the rise of AI, I truly believe that most of the grunt, technical (how-to) tasks will be handled by the software, and the job of a colorist will be purely driven by their art and imagination.

    Qazi, what I appreciate about your tutorials is the fact that each time you show different ways to achieve the same thing- it's not a paint by numbers play-along. Just your free content alone can push a person into professional grading, I can't imagine what your paid stuff is like. As soon as I can afford the course I'm diving in!

      Please tell me, I can't find the function, the shift of clips when transferring, taking it with the mouse, so that it doesn't cut off the clips when you want to insert a clip between clips on the timeline?

  • @Photogabi
    @Photogabi 4 роки тому +51

    Ok, besides the fact that this is a much-awaited lesson, for low light, dark looks, I learned another golden trick - the zooming out to compare the grade with the reference. Sometimes I get too lost in the details and lose the big picture. Priceless! Thanks Qazi!

    The other thing I have found that is absolutely brilliant about using this exact technique: you REALLY take control over the color space of your image. You can crank your saturation all the way, crush your darks and everything looks SO VIBRANT. There's SO MUCH DETAIL. It's fucking sexy as fuck. Thank you for making this, Waqas.

Side by side, that was the only thing for me man....& I gotta say, I don't comment on stuff much, but learning what Im leaning is helping me find my "voice" in taste, confidence to talk about color, etc. So thank you for helping us become educated producers and less cynical consumers. Peace and Love dude!

    Ive watched probably half of Qazis videos and never really understood how to get the look I was wanting... (Also being new to resolve and not really understanding how nodes work and being a little overwhelmed with the tools work) Then 10 minutes into the video with some playing around I had a major breakthrough and finally f*cking get it..
