  • Here's my updated Color Grading Workflow for 2024 in DaVinci Resolve 19. It's very similar to the one I published earlier this year but less masking as a default and now with the new ColorSlice Tool that came with DaVinci Resolve 19.

    Hi Alex
    I started to get deeply involved with color grading around the same time as you did.
    Even though I have already learned almost all the content of your videos, I watch every video you make. and here and there I learn something new or see other approaches. You do this very well.
    Thanks you for making these videos!
    And since i have not updated davinci so far i enjoy this video here a lot!
    Best greetings from Fuerteventura!

    Would like to see if you can recreate most of these steps (as an alternative workflow) using Versioni 19 New Film Look Creator.

    • @AlexBjorstorp
      @AlexBjorstorp  3 місяці тому +2

      The Film Look Creator is meant to make things look like they were shot on film.
      So as a direct alternative you won’t accomplish the same. I will be making more videos with the film look creator but I don’t see it part of my own regular workflow in any way 😊😅

    Hey Alex, am really enjoying your videos they are helping me with color grading a lot great content! I have a question for you though: you shoot in clog 3 as well right? I always over expose my shots by about 2 stops but I still struggle with soooo much noise is my videos but from what I can see you don’t have the same problem. Do you have any advice?

    • @AlexBjorstorp
      @AlexBjorstorp  3 місяці тому

      Thanks a lot Robert! Happy to hear that!
      Usually the noise comes from having too high ISO. So if you're not shooting at your Native ISO, then perhaps that's the issue? Which Canon camera are you shooting with and what's your typical settings? :-)

    • @robertcvsh
      @robertcvsh 3 місяці тому +1

      @@AlexBjorstorp thanks for the reply Alex! I am shooting with the R6 mk ii. I try and keep my iso at 800 and if the Scene is still too dark i will go to 3200 and I usually set my aperture depending on where my exposure is at after that. I have noticed that in 4K there is less noise than in 1080 or maybe that’s just in my head 🤔

    • @AlexBjorstorp
      @AlexBjorstorp  3 місяці тому +1

      I never shoot in 1080, so I wouldn't know but even at 3200 ISO you'll see noise. I usually go to a max of 4000 ISO but then I'll use the Noise Reduction in DaVinci to remove the majority of it.
      However, it's rare that I am not shooting at 800. I try to get more light first and then if I have to I'll shoot above that but no higher than 40000 and then use Noise Reduction :-)

    how did you change the display settings on your macbook pro to see gamma 2.4 instead of 2.2?

      This video I've made shows you exactly how: ua-cam.com/video/GtTVib9FkF4/v-deo.html
      The only thing is that I think I say that sRGB is the same as Rec.709. That's not 100% true, it's almost the same but the minor differences haven't had an impact on my grading and output :-)

      @@AlexBjorstorp can't I just use the Apple Display (P3-500 nits) in the display preset on the MacBook?

    • @AlexBjorstorp
      @AlexBjorstorp  3 місяці тому +1

      If you do and export to Rec.709 you're not seeing the same as you're actually grading - because your MacBook Display is showing you P3 but you're exporting to Rec.709. So doing that will make a disconnect between the two and often result in a difference in color and/or contrast after export.
      There is a "use mac display profile" setting in DaVinci but I haven't seen great results using that compared to being in the sRGB / Rec.709 color profile. And I honestly don't see a big difference when I'm watching a movie either :-)
