WOW! YES! Everybody should see this. I was so annoyed as a beginner in Resolve because all the Tutorials used qualifier for skin tone and teal sind orange looks and Like you said that doesnt work in 8bit and over a series of Shots and only if they have certain properties and corrections before. I was so frustrated! Thank you for Putting this Out. My Soul can now grade in peace 🎉
This is the exact reason why I made this video. The amount of bad advice associated with this tool on RUclips is maddening. So I'm so so happy to hear you found this useful, thank you!
Great video Marieta - we need more videos on best practices...for the people reading, you can also do a split tone teal/orange in primaries RGB or log RGB wheels, these broad stoke adjustments are faster and easier to translate across multiple shots (if you've balanced everything first) and work a lot better with stock/8bit than qauli's ever will.
Thank you very much, Jay! Yes, absolutely. The Primaries, Log Wheels, HDR, Custom Curves, RGB Mixer are definitely the tools that should be used for look development. + For any creative hue shifts - HSL Curves, Warper, Color Slice. I'll certainly do videos on good practices for look development in the future when I have my panel back from the UK. I hope you're well. ☺
@@marietafarfarova Likewise! killing it with the videos at the moment! you should also do a video on Y-Lift/Gamma/Gain vs Lift/Gamma/Gain. I think thats a good topic for balancing etc
Thank you! Well, first off I think you should always balance your footage to your skin tones so they somewhat align to the Skin Tone indicator on your Vectorscope (even though this line is arbitrary and depends on the context and environment of the shot). Then, if your skin tones need a boost in saturation, for example, I like to use Color Warper in HSV or Color Slice (Skin Tone zone). If your skin tones need any beauty work, I personally like to use a bit of Midtone Detail, Texture Pop and Face Refinement. For any skin imperfections, I use Patch Replacer or Power Window + manual grading to fix the issue. I hope this helps.
Thank you! Of course - any Hue vs Luminance adjustment, including Color Slice, Hue vs Lum curve or external DCTLs, can create noise if the change is too drastic or the footage doesn't have much dynamic range. What you can do is ensure you denoise your footage at the start of your pipeline. Also, an amazing technique I learned from Marty Webb on Mixing Light is to feed any density changes through a Texture Blend node. You can see the technique here: mixinglight.com/color-grading-tutorials/texture-blend-noisy-secondaries-davinci-resolve/
Ah, I must say, I'm not a huge fan of Film Look Creator and I don't use it in my work. But you should certainly check out one of my friends' review of the tool on his RUclips channel here @thedouglasdutton ruclips.net/video/5IRFwWaPf50/видео.htmlsi=z7DCwgQtGaM7R6Es
@@diegochak7560 Hey Diego, my current reference monitor is BenQ PV270 but by the end of the year, I’m going to get the LG 32EP950. And no, I don’t use Omniscopes. I’ve seen how they look and work but I’m just quite used to Resolve’s internal scopes and feel comfortable with them so I don’t feel the need to switch. Hope this helps!
@@diegochak7560 Oh no! It's still available here that's why I suggested it. Flanders is the dream! Depending on what your budget is, to my knowledge XMP310 is excellent for HDR grading. And I think currently their DM231 is the option for SDR. But, personally, I feel the 23.8" size is a bit small and the resolution is only 1920x1080.
You can use Sat vs Sat, of course. Just a slight downside to consider is that you don't see the exact areas you're affecting. But the Sat vs Sat curve is an excellent tool to tackle highly saturated areas, absolutely.
Ah, The Colour Correction Handbook/Look Book! Would you recommend adding them to my reading list? I always found video trainings to be easier to get a grasp on but I've heard so much good feedback about these books, it definitely makes me want to read them.
Amazing tips! Great insights on what to avoid!
@@StefanRingelschwandtner Stefan, thank you so much, I appreciate it!
@@marietafarfarova @StefanRingelschwandtner you both have taught me so much. I really appreciate you guys!!!!

Complex but Effective
Thank you for your comment! I'd gladly elaborate in case you found something to be too complex to understand.
Learned a lot by this video! Thank you 💯

Thank you Chef.
Ha, that made me chuckle. Thank you!
Great Video. Can you make a video for grading monitors .
Thank you! That would be an interesting topic, certainly. I'll make sure to add it to my list.
Awesome 👍👍👍
Very insightful. Thank you for this video. Also, what tool would you recommend to adjust and get perfect skin tones?

Well, first off I think you should always balance your footage to your skin tones so they somewhat align to the Skin Tone indicator on your Vectorscope (even though this line is arbitrary and depends on the context and environment of the shot).

Hello Marieta!, great video! I wanted to ask you two questions, what is your reference monitor and to know if you use the Nobe Omniscope. Thank you!

Wouldn't the Sat Vs Sat curve be a better option for the high sat reduction?
You can use Sat vs Sat, of course. Just a slight downside to consider is that you don't see the exact areas you're affecting. But the Sat vs Sat curve is an excellent tool to tackle highly saturated areas, absolutely.
Alexis Van hurkman’s book definitely reshape my thinking on this

So much noise on sides
Yep, that's due to RUclips's terrible compression.
