Just FYI, if at the beginning you remove the serial node that is there by default, select all clips and middle click the first one-it of course removes all of the default single serial nodes per clip. Then you can just drag the power grade into the node window before working on each clip and you don’t have to manually remove that pesky extra node. Nice video. 👍🏼
Thanks! I've later on also found that you can simply just right-click and choose "Apply Grade" that'll apply it without that annoying for node as well 🙌🏻
I think you can judge the shadow clipping a lot better if you click the three dots on the scope window and change the waveform to data levels - when it is on video levels it clips the lower end to around 94 IRE. I also have never seen anyone use the primary wheels to set exposure - especially the Gamma. Kind of unorthodox an approach. Exposure I find that using the HDR tools exposure slider is more photometric in response where it will retain your black and raise the light ( exposure ) very similar to an onset exposure of doubling the light per stop. interesting approach and choices on some of the steps. I would need to test some of the out of the box steps to verify if the steps work for me. But if it works for you, that's all that really matters. Thanks for the video.
I prefer the video levels to have a bit more room on top and bottom to see when it's clipping but that's all preference in the end. Interesting! All I've seen, especially here on youtube it's been with the primaries, only recently I've seen the HDR tools used and while they are definitely more powerful I often find them a bit too specific as to the area they adjust whereas the primaries gives me a broader application and I feel it blends it better when I'm adjusting the exposure. As you say, it's all down to getting the result you desire so both things can work! Hope you found time to play around with the primaries and see if it worked for you - I'd love to hear your thoughts!
For sure! Can you elaborate a little bit on what you'd like to see with keyframing? Is that mostly for adjusting masks you're thinking or more in general, using keyframes in DaVInci?
Hey Alex, whenever I use Curves ( Hue, Luminance and other) in colour grading, it's appears like( TURN OFF & ON light effect or Glitch) in video (which colour enhance). So please tell how can I solve the problem?
Running into an issue when I try and preview changes made to the parallel nodes. The changes I make to these nodes will not be reflected in the preview window (however they will be reflected in the node tree window). If I make a change to a serial node in the same tree it will be reflected in the preview window. Has anyone had this happen and is there a solution?
bundul of thanks bro for this love from Pakistan and bro please increase your microphone voice its a low I can not listen correctly anyway I respect your work
Cheers mate! Can't increase the volume - RUclips compresses the volume after upload and attempts to balance it out. Sorry if you can't hear it, it works fine on my end though 😊
I have a headphone but the voice is slow 😘😘☺ i respect you sir because a you is a my teacher your video is most precious for me and please make a tutorial on a how works log wheel,Primery wheel,H.D.R Wheel in Davinci resolve and how we can color grade 8Bit Video and sonya6500 sonya6400 log videos in high dynamic range am waiting your reply and waiting your tutorials ❤❤❤
If you set your color management to rec.709 and Gamma 2.4 you're good to go. Make sure to shoot your footage with "HDR" disabled as that makes it more difficult to work with the footage
If you put everything into one node it’s way more difficult to see what does what and change things as you go along without having to try out different things (until you become very familiar with Davinci). But no, you don’t need to do anything 😊 However, my own node trees always has 17-20 nodes and I love working like this, so it’s down to personal preference. There’s no downside to doing more if you know what you’re doing 🙌🏻
In this case because those were the 12 adjustments that we were doing in this Intermediate workflow. It's not about the amount of nodes but the individual adjustments and making it easy to turn nodes on and off to preview what the individual adjustments does for the overall grade and whether they need further adjustment or not :-) Sorry this video wasn't for you. Remember we are all humans behind the screen and I'm simply trying to help people learn color grading. if this video wasn't for you, that's okay - have a great rest of your day 🙌🏻

Thanks a lot for amazing videos.
Hello "Alex Bjorstorp"! Thank you for showing us such a wonderful video! I feel so happy! I'm looking forward to your next work! Have a nice day!
You are welcome! Thank you for watching! A lot more videos coming very soon!
Terrific explanation. Bookmarking this one for the future!
Appreciate it! Glad it helped you out 🙏🏻
Another great vid thanks
this is helpful keep making these types of content . learned a lot
Cheers! Will do!
Hi Alex, Awesome video.
Please explain in your next video about keyframing together with the masking a bit in depth.
Thank you for the great content.
For sure! Can you elaborate a little bit on what you'd like to see with keyframing? Is that mostly for adjusting masks you're thinking or more in general, using keyframes in DaVInci?
really loved this one it helped me a lot to understand it more thank you so much Alex
You are welcome Karim! Super happy to hear it helped you out!
Simple, straight forward, pratical informations. Thanks for the video. Subscribed.
Appreciate it John! Thanks for watching
Hey! As an avid premiere pro user, this has helped me with my transition to Davinci! Thanks for making this video bro!
Happy to hear that man! Glad it helped! 🙌🏻
Great info. Enjoyed your vid mate. Gonna play with this. Cheers😀👍
Thanks mate! Glad it helps you out!
Another great tutorial! Thanks a lot 🙏
Appreciate your support man! 🙌🏻
cool. with lift on individual colours shift we must be careful cuz it brakes on nonlinear fashion on changes!
great tutorial , thanks a lot
You are welcome! Thanks for watching!
Great guide! SO helpful for creators 👏
Thank you! Glad you like it and it helped you out!
this is top quality tutorial 👌
Thanks a lot man! Appreciate it!
thanks for that!!!!
Any tips for a custom cst set up for clips with out camera information?
A video coming out on how I would approach that within the next few days 🙌🏻
how your curves custom have curves and colour wheels open at the same time,I only have curves only
If you work on a larger display, it sometimes will separate it into two, so you can have more open at the same time :)
Ouhh thanks mate love your video ❤
helpful thank you bro
You're welcome mate!

Hey there, I'm not sure what the issue might be from your description - it's not something I recall having happen to myself, sorry
Running into an issue when I try and preview changes made to the parallel nodes. The changes I make to these nodes will not be reflected in the preview window (however they will be reflected in the node tree window). If I make a change to a serial node in the same tree it will be reflected in the preview window. Has anyone had this happen and is there a solution?
I have that issue sometimes and I find that a simple restart of Davinci usually solves it! I hope you found a solution - apologies for the slow reply!
Looks like you were in Vietnam?

Please i want to text you seperate email or whatsap ☺
Am listen first time youtube compress the audio 🤔🤔🤔
what do you mean by intermediate? 🤔
That's it's not necessarily suitable for complete beginner but also not too advanced - so somewhere in the middle :-)
@@AlexBjorstorp ahh yes sorry, my english is bad, got you. Your channel is awesome, great content!
im filming footage using my iphone 11 . what color management what you recommend that i use ?
im filimg content to post on tiktok what color management setting should i use to ensure that the quality is good ?
If you set your color management to rec.709 and Gamma 2.4 you're good to go. Make sure to shoot your footage with "HDR" disabled as that makes it more difficult to work with the footage
bro you don't need that many nodes for this kind of thing
If you put everything into one node it’s way more difficult to see what does what and change things as you go along without having to try out different things (until you become very familiar with Davinci). But no, you don’t need to do anything 😊 However, my own node trees always has 17-20 nodes and I love working like this, so it’s down to personal preference.

12 nodes?! why not 24 or 100? worst explain ever

It's not about the amount of nodes but the individual adjustments and making it easy to turn nodes on and off to preview what the individual adjustments does for the overall grade and whether they need further adjustment or not :-)
