Thanks a lot for watching Carsten! And sure thing, I’ll write it down. And not using any of the FD lenses but really would like to test them out. Currently only mainly use the canon 24-70mm f2.8L and Sony 35mm f1.8
Daaaaamn it's so insane how much is possible with this program :0 ...very inspirational tutorial! could you tell me wich settings I must Chance in davinci, when I'm filming with the ITU.709 MATRIX ?
Hey Thomas, we’re glad you found it useful! And if you’re using CST your input colour space should be Rec.709 and input gamma should be Slog2 (Thats of course if you’ve shot on slog2). Hope that makes sense
Thanks a lot Miquel! And we use spot metering, and if we want the skin to be well exposed we’ll frame the face in the center until we achieve +2.0 on the exposure meter. Then reframe our shot to the desired composition. We use Zebras just for highlight clipping
@@Elliot12367 we’d usually go and adjust white balance after we fix the contrast, balance, and saturation of the image. Then we can get a better idea of the colours in the frames. After that can we then go back to the white balance node and using the offset wheel shift the colour to the opposite direction that’s mostly showing in the frame. So for the A7iii the image naturally comes out very magenta. So shifting the offset toward the green/blues usually helps to fix this
Always wanted to know how you graded this project. May I ask, did you use the light rays effect for the shot of Mr Rehman running on the treadmill? Thank you
Yes but slog3 on the A7iii comes out too noisy and it’s really hard to grade compared to slog2. From my experience I don’t recommend using slog3 on the A7iii as it’s not the proper form of slog3
@@hirobiikoma of course the A7iii is a great upgrade. But you have to look for what you also need from the camera, what kind of things are you shooting/wanting to shoot? And is it photos or mostly video?:)
@@hirobiikoma before I got the Sony I used canon cameras for a few years so had canon glass left over. Therefore when I switched to Sony instead of buying a new lens which would be more expensive I bought an adapter. And we’ve just been using them here along with the Sony lenses since then
We exposed correctly with slog2 (+2 stops over) hence why the footage isn’t too grainy. If Slog2 isn’t exposed properly usually if underexposed, the footage is usually quite grainy. Alternatively if I tried to creat a “bright look” with this clip, the footage would look grainy as the footage has a lot of shadows and can’t really push A7iii footage that much . Hope that makes

We recommend watching this at 1.5x speed
even though the video is 20 mins really appreaciate that your tutorial is direct to the point with no fuss and gimicks.
I hope you found it useful 🙏🏽
Never disappointed always on top
Thanks a lot for watching Chen!
Really cool like everytime thanks u guys
From France :)
Thanks a lot Marco, really appreciate that!
You guys, rrrrrrrrrrrr awesome 👏!
Thanks a lot for watching man!
You guys are the best! Could u consider doing a review of the Canon 24-70mm f2..8? Are u using Canon FD Lenses as well?

your videos give confidence but better if you up the raw for practice!
Thanks!

Great video guys. I wonder how you expose in slog2 for skin? Zebras at 75%?

Can this method be applyed for different looks as well (of cousrse the actual grade would be different, but more the steps and node tree)
Yes of course! This is just the base node tree and you can create any look you want
please recommend a davnci course on youtube from beginning to advance beside your tutorials i want to switch from premiere pro
Waqas Qazi has a great Davinci resolve free webinar which you can sign up to on his RUclips channel
You said in the beginning you would go back to White Balance but never did. Did I miss something? Great tutorial! Cheers :)
Ah man I just realised I didn’t. Normally I would but I must’ve completely forgotten this time. Thanks for pointing that out Elliot!
@@meliorstudios After which point would you correct the white balance? And how? :)

Well done,, Can you do the same in Adobe Premiere Pro ?pls
Thanks a lot, unfortunately we only work in Davinci Resolve :(

Thank you
Hey Daniel, hope you found this helpful! And you’re correct! We used the light ray FX on the treadmill shot to help supplement the light on his back
@@meliorstudios Awesome. I’m actually doing a Muay Thai project with a friend and your boxing video is acting as a major inspiration, thank you 🙏
At 5:25 mark when I click skin nothing happens. Also can't find the magic wand. Plz help. Using 18.5.1
Press Shift+H and you should be able to see your selection
👍
Thank you!
did you try slog3 in 8bit

is a7iii worth upgrade from a6300?

i just wondering, why ur footage does not look noisy on low light situation.

@@meliorstudios you do already have a7iv, does your camera setting same as a7iii too? slog 3/itu 709? do you mind sharing it with me?
Hey man, we only borrowed the A7iv for one shoot which was just set at the standard PP8 with slog3 and sgamut3
Tutorial with HLG 3?
We'll make one soon
