    Hi Brendon! I loved the tutorial but was hoping you can clarify what the order of the changes should be (lut first, then effects, or vice versa). In Tyler Stalman's video "How to Color Grade in Final Cut Pro" he says the video effects are applied in order so should be color changes, and then Lut. At 19:04 youhave your lut applied first, and then your color changes comes after it.
    I'm not an expert, but trying to learn how to color grade and so I'm watching a ton of YT videos. Can you help confirm which is the correct order?

    • @brendonleerogers1794
      @brendonleerogers1794  2 роки тому +1

    Very informative video and it was cool to see your workflow since I also use FCP. I've been just getting into colour grading, LOG and LUTS recently this weekend so I'm watching a ton of videos to see how others do it first. Nice to see you are a big fan of Eterna because I think I am going to focus heavily on mastering Eterna before dabbling with other LUTS. I liked your video and subscribed to your channel!

I've come to a conclusion that although I really like Classic Chrome, I like Eterna more. I'm sure with more tweaking and practice, I can really dial it in. It's nice to learn from people like you who really understand it more than I do.

    the film luts, are they supposed to go to basic correction tab, or to the creative tab below in lumetri premiere? are they de-log luts? or creative? as i understand the arri look luts are de-log luts and go to the basic correction tab. same goes for the film looks? meaning can I Insert the arri neutral first, and then insert the eterna in the creative lumetri tab, on an adjustment layer on top for the whole film , with an adjustable intensity like 10%?

    Hey Brendon, love the video
    just got a quick question. You mention at 3:30 that for when using a monitor (I have a ninja v) one should import the legacy instead of the standard version of the LUT into it. Why is that ?

    Keep up the work, much love

    • @brendonleerogers1794

      No particu reason. Just for monitoring better. I find that flip screen on a7siii with gamma assist on is good enough for standard version. Legacy tends to be a little more contrasty so If that’s look you want in post then monitor with that lut.

    HI BRother I was using an old version of Phantom lut . At first I was happy with that, but later I stopped using it. cuz it limits the black level up to 5 IRE . Is this new pack of luts could bring the dark level up to zero or is there any setting in the grading software which allows phantom lut to go beyond 5 IRE Please advise

      @@brendonleerogers1794 thank you! the reason I ask is because I think the order of LUT and additional color correction in the video effects tab matter?. At least from everything I read and seen in my projects. I Was hoping to replace my current Sony slog3 -> rec709 lut with these phantom luts because they look incredible!
      So my workflow would be as follows
      1) phantom LUT to get me out of slog3 over to rec709(done in info tab)
      2) cc with fcp to make sure exposure/contrast/skin tones/colors are correct across all my shots after edit.
      3) when a project calls for something more special, I'll add adjustment layer for a "grade" (maybe using another phantom Film look at very low opacity)
      Thanks again!

      Correct it’s just an artistic preference. You can expose for skin and background may get blown out but if you’re trying to have subject your focus than it would be ok. But you could also expose for the background protect your highlights but then your subject would be underexposed making a silhouette. There’s really no right or wrong way. Just up to you.

      I have a video talking about exposing slog 3
      ua-cam.com/video/HD7V8rnUgFI/v-deo.html
      That’s unfortunate to hear. Typically outside with no human subject in the shot I have zebras set to 95 and expose just under 95.
      My main piece of advice is to ignore the light meter reading. Depending on what your filming in the frame, can have a huge impact on your light meter reading.
      My first go to is to have the gamma display assist on in the flip screen and get the exposure close to what I am seeing with my eye.
      Then if I’m shooting a subject I turn on zebras to see how the zebras are landing on the face. Making sure I’m not clipping the skin tones. Same concept for landscape shots/ establishing shots.
      Expose based off of your eye and the display monitor and then use zebras to dial it in a little finer.
      Most the time if it’s fast paced filming I’ll only get a chance to expose based on the flip screen. And it gets me to where I want majority of the time.

    I wasted my money on these. There is no way to adjust the effect of these on footage as the all convert to rec709. The looks are all nice but very intense and there is nothing you can do about it. The neutral one is decent if you just want some usuable picture with almost no work. But it will be a very generic look.

      In DaVinci Resolve you must use the "Key Output" tool (and another tool that I forgot the name of) to adjust the intensity of the LUT.
