Have you ever wondering exactly why your videos don't look the same as a movie production? There are obvious factors, of course, including professional lighting, set design, etc. But what about the actual, technical, in-camera specs that determine the quality of your video footage?
In today's OrmsTV video, professional digital video DaVinci Resolve colourist and our resident video content producer, Jess, breaks down some fundamental digital imaging principles like dynamic range, chroma subsampling, log vs. linear gamma curves and Rec.709 vs other colour spaces, all of which explain why your videos don't look like a movie.

Just wanted to say youve explained so much in an interesting and inviting way! looking forward to more content from you. Perhaps more Bmpcc videos? Thats what I won currently. Cheers!
you still have to learn so much!
The amount of work and detail that was composed into this video is incredible.
"I studied photography, then specialized in colour grading", I subscribed so fast that my phone fell on the floor!
Probably the best combined and out-of-the-box explanation I have enjoyed seeing ever. Much appreciated.
This is the best video on this topic I have ever seen, congratulations!
just got a sony a7iii and ive learned so much from trying to figure it out and this video just basically summarises it all lol. great video, those who know will appreciate it
Sony a7siii says hi. 10 bit 422. :] 13.5stops of dynamic range in Scine.sgamut3. It comes pretty close for only 3K and has the same sensor as a FX6.
Color grading on it is exceptional. Also you got a Hermoine vibe going here lol 😆 😂
Learnt more about color from this one video than 100 other videos on RUclips. Please make more talking about more in-depth about color concepts like color space, dynamic range, gamuts and more
The amount of information in this video is MIND BOGGLING 🤯
I studied electrical engineering so its fascinating to me that you did such a great job of explaining compression. I think this has to be the best explanation of all the things that contribute to the limitations of post production color grading for the prosumer market. Definitely a lot of things I wish I had known/considered before upgrading a year ago - but thats what growing looks like ◡̈
best video.......every beginner colorist must watch this video
This is one of the best tutorials ever
This was one of the most informative video in terms of bit rate and coloring. Long story short understand tools and theory is important. Thanks
Can't believe it took me this long in the youtube rabbithole to find this great video, shame on the google algorithm for not recommending it earlier in my search! The amount of high quality information in this video is fantastic, you've gained a subscriber.
Great quality video! Very underrated channel 👏🏾
After shooting 10bit 4:2:2 in GH5 and noticing how it grades, I felt sorry for DSLR shooters with the 8Bit 4:2:0 limitations. Truly, 10 bit 4:2:2 is a game changer, now imagine what 12Bit 4:4:4 can do.
This is all true ! but wont make a difference if most people don't have the equipment to view or see it anyways ? unless in the pro movie world.This in fact only apply to green screening, or for a colorist for editing.
A7IV changes that… and the BMCC 6k holy shhhh
@@christopherdunn317 Why doesn't it make a difference? It already made a huge difference in the editing process where you have a much harder time getting the results you wanted without destroying details or creating ugly color banding, blotching when you color grade. Most Hollywood movies digitally deliver their final products in 8 bit anyway, but that 8-bit file has a much better quality than your average 8-bit because of those liberties they had in post production (and ofc their original files).
Blackmagic 💪🏽
imagine the 16bit devices Arri, Red, Canon c500 i can only imagine i haven't looked at that canon just yet but i can only imagine it has a full 16bit.
This was fantastic 👏👏👏thanks for making it. I learned a lot
this is a really informative video. incredibly thought out, thank you.
Wow need to watch this again! So much information and so well put by you thank you!
Love this tutorial. I knew most of this but you pulled it all together in a systemic way that makes more sense. Just about best explanation I've seen so far. Congrats!
Fantastic video! Thanks for explaining everything so clearly and structured!
You have explained a heap of info that I've never quite understood, but now have a much better grasp of. Thanks for explaining this all so eloquently.
That was one of the most informational videos I’ve ever seen. Thanks for all the great info.
Amazing video! lot of complicated information presented in an easy to understand way with a smooth delivery/pace. Much appreciated
Mind blown. Not all of this was new to me, but gave me much deeper insight to why colors work the way they work. Also loved the message near the end. Got an A7 III last year and the "Let's get it as right in camera as possible" gave me all I need.
Incredible explanations of complex subjects! Well done!
Watched it til the end and subscribed, this video is pure gold Jess! Such a huge sharing of great knowledge, THANK YOU!
Best video I found on log, color space and gamma as far as understanding the concepts. Thanks so much
I've been looking for a good summarized explanation of color grading and cinema...thank you for this!!!
Wow! what an amazing video! I have researched for the topics you discussed individually, and haven't gotten a clearer view of these subjects before, and that too in one video. Though I am just an amateur filmmaker at the moment but I would love to collaborate with you one day.
Keep on making such amazing videos. This one was really a big help. Thanks a lot!
Thank you for taking the time to make this. Everything counts!! 🙏
This video was incredible.
great useful and pure gold info in this one. Thank you.
Thank you. Great video!
Such an well put together video, its been a while since I could say it with such confidence.
Video is really informative, all points are well described yet made easy to digest too, sound and video quality is brilliant and it all tied together by really charming sounding as well as looking presenter. I would learn a lot in life in all guide videos were made so well!
very informative thx! You also can add color science of the camera: sometime it is good some time it is bad (difficult to correct while grading).
I own a panasonic GH5...700€
DR is low about 12 stops (LOG footage)
you can record 4k 422 10 bit 400Mb/s
Color science can be corrected with some non destructive luts (GHALEX used as an IDT mimicking Arri Alexa Classic), and you can use a simple color management in Davinci Resolve, staying in the Davinci Wide Gamut in the worspace:
Log footage -> GHALEXto LogC->LogC3 to DWG cst -> ......edit..... ->DWG to Rec709 cst.
Every camera and lense has his own limitation, just try do the best with them :)
incredible video, thank you!
Love your video. Very well explained!
I have been researching colour grading for a minute now. You just demystified sooooooo much for me!!!! Thank you
Lekker dag verder ;-)
really nice overview, thanks so much
YOU ARE THE BEST! SO MANY INFO DISTILLED IN 13 MINUTES! THX.
Excellent video, thank you!
Tanks for all this helpful information. Keep going!
Wow!! That was awesome.. thanks!! 👍💐🙏
This was amazing!!
Hello Jess, this is the best explanation I've ever heard on the subject. Helps me a lot. Thank you very much 🙏 Cheers, Dave
What a rich overview!!! Love it!! Thanks for sharing.
Brilliant. Thoroughly enjoyable video...
thank you for sharing, great informations!!
Awesome video Thanks ♥ 🙌🏼
best video explaining those differences between amateur and pro gear and quality, thanks!
Why Your Videos DON'T Look Like A MOVIE? I thought this is going to be a another Resolve/Premiere Video showing some tricks and trying to sell their LUTs/Course. But you revealed the real factors ie., dynamic range and bit depth. Love to see videos of Film Vs Digital comparison with same lens and exact framing....
Thank you, very helpful
Thanks, super informative.
Superb, clear and concise 👍
Love the info and the flow of content. I'd recommend getting some consultation on the lighting setup of talking head shots, back lighting hair, straight on flat key light, etc can be changed and make this video even better
Great job with this video! Similar to others on here, I've researched some of these topics individually as I encountered the terminology, but I've never seen all the relevant topics covered concisely and precisely in one place. I wish I'd found this video when I was starting out.
very well explained, amazing content
Loved the video. Thanks.
Very informative. Thank you!
Very well explained. Great.
Excellent content. Soooio well made, compact, informative. Thanks.
Awesome video!!!
this is the first time I watched you video, Great Video, please keep making such videos, it will help us to create better quality content
Such an amazing thing that you’re a colorist . I really love colour grading . Just feels so good to make a flat picture look beautiful.
Yes, indeed! It is a very satisfying process.
You are simply incredible. That’s a lot of work and priceless info you put into this video. I just subd 👍🏽
very clear!
I've been bought...great video...I'm a follower from now on
Nice content. really very helpfull. Thank You
subscribed after watching this videos, its incredible !!! ...
BTW, thanks for your detailed explanations! It will help me with my decision on deciding between an 8-bit vs 10-bit external monitor for my laptop.
Hello from France. Love this video !!! Very very interesting and well explained !!
I can't wait to see your other videos. Thank you 🙂
Great information!
i have been editing videos and teaching myself with youtube and skillshare for 3 years now. and nobody has ever relayed this information in any of the thousands of videos i have watched.. thank you. and i love your hair. im a ginger too
Great vid!
Great video for a Noob like me! Thanks so much! That explained soooo much!
This was so informative! All around covered everything so well. Would love to see how you handle A7Siii S Log 3 footage. Thanks you!
Incredible, thank you!
THIS VIDEO DESERVES MORE RECOGNITION, YOU HELPED ME A LOT
Wonderful video. Easily the best I’ve seen so far on the film look and color grading. it is an absolute CRIME that it only has 2400 views
Loved this video!
Awesome video. Thank you 🙏
Best video on the topic!
Awesome vid! I’d love to see a ‘da Vinci resolve basics’ type of video
Sure thing! Thanks for your request. We'll add it to the list of upcoming videos.
I also use Resolve. I would like to see a "how to color match all of your clips" video. The clip matching feature is the obvious choice, but I found it did not give me even decent results.
This video is soo useful.. thank you very much
This has to be the most comprehensive explanation of camera color science on RUclips
That was very informative, thank you so much mam
The best video, thanks...
Best ever explanation. I am smarter now, thank you!
Thanks for the Eduction :)
Wow! Thank you!
Tha k you, it is a great video.
This Video deserves more attention!!
this was helpful, thanks.
Wow, very helpful. Thank you so much for this great explanation. Now I want you to color grade all my footage for me. haha
To make footage more ‘film like’ you can use additional correction curves after shooting or sometimes even in camera ( like log ) to taper the highlights and smooth out the low end… film rendered to screen is never fully black and many films have a low-key look keeping most of the image in a more saturated color zone… there are many lighting ratios and techniques that help create this look…and you left out frame rate blurs etc… great video! Do another one where you fill in the next steps !
comprehensive and accessible insights
Girl. You're amazing
Girl. Thanks so much! This made my day!
Amazing video
This is a brilliant video! very well put and so nicely accessible to all Levels of experience. Like and Subscribe was a must.
Girl you are freaking amazing.
This was giving the answer to most of my recent questions on video using DSLR lately. It would be nice to see a video on what we can actually get out of a high end mirrorless camera with 10/12 bit and 4:2:2. How to set it up and what we can do in post to get closer to a movie look. I will anyway watch all videos by Jess as they will appear. Great work, thank you so much :D
Any half decent mirrorless camera can do 10 bit 4:2:2 today. You don't need "high end". Even the DJI Mini 3 Pro does 10 bit 4:2:2.
