DUDE! So glad to watch a new video, and one again, you blew my mind, remote grades!!!!! Great explainer for the general "order of operations", I've always wondered about that.
Thank you so much, Nathan! This is a very important topic that can easily be overlooked. Please keep making deep dives into the fundamentals of Resolve! It's so hard to find practical non-beginner content for Resolve so thank you so much for making this!
Good one Nathan. I see a lot of questions in the forum on pre and post groups and timeline nodes. Good that you explained it thoroughly. I often put film grain on the Timeline node level as well. A real film grain would be over everything including titles and probably wouldn't change throughout a film. But the adjustment layer could be dragged across the whole timeline as well and suffice. I also use Timeline nodes for temporary OFX that I don't want to keep adding and turning on and off, mostly the false color plugin. I find it faster when I need to see the false color plugin to have a node on the timeline and just quickly turn it on, on any clip I am parked on, And because it is in the final level it actually gives me the output exposure. Tip - when you are in the project settings - you can hold down the alt key when you click save and the menu saves and changes your settings, but remains open. Good tip if you are changing things and making a choice without going through the whole open and search through the settings to go back and forth to get the settings you want. Good job on this video. I have said it before, I respect that you explain everything well. People tend to learn better if they know "Why" they are doing things as opposed to just following a recipe.
Bro thank you so much. I didn't even know there were adjustment layers similar to premiere. I've been using resolve for a few weeks now and never going back to premiere. This was very helpful
Hi all, I'm currently working with just one camera, EOS R, paired with Ninja V. The footage is CLOG, 10bit, Rec2020 colour space. I'm using Colour Space Transform OFX to convert the footage to Rec709. I'm also using DaVinci Wide Colour Gamut as it seems to lead to better grading and correction results. Would it be wrong placing the Colour Space Transform in a Timeline node instead per clip? I find it a little bit repetitive and inefficient creating the same node over and over per each clip, as I'm working with a single camera. Some advices would be truly appreciated! A beginner DaVinci's user here :) Thanks!
I'm not sure I follow. Are you talking about reducing the saturation of an image ( by tonal balancing, slider, some mix of the two)? Do you have a reference?
@@NathanCarterVids thank you sir .. yes i have .. i saw the movie James Bond Spectre.. the scene were they voting in a hall.. the ambiance that i saw it was like grayish.. i can see the colors but like grayish.. maybe i am wrong 🤔
@@ikbalaydin80 okay great question. Now this could be a number of things, from the production design, to the lighting, however what it sounds like to me is that you're looking to reduce saturation of a specific region. I'd say your best bet if there's a tonal difference between your subject and background is to balance the desired tonal ranges to reduce saturation. The HDR control is great for that. I also go over the general principles in this video: ruclips.net/video/9Jk5__FOioY/видео.html
Honestly I'm holding off from Fusion for a bit. Most of what I know and do professionally is grounded in color correction. The other reason is fusion kinda kills my computer and with GPUs and CPUs at their crazy inflated prices, I'm gonna wait until I can get something close to MSRP before upgrading, hopefully that's within the next year haha.
All great! Thanks for the effort. Many valuable tips. But omg what a rush .... I would really like to see this ez pz, step by step, no hurry, we have time ... maybe do a few videos separating all these topics. From your point of view all of this is clear but hey ... man! I have to watch this a few times at 0,5 speed ... lol!
That's great feedback. I find it difficult to ride that line of explaining everything clearly while still remaining engaging, and tying that into a topic people are searching. Is there anything I can help clear up and better explain in the comments?
i am feeling so stupid now hahaha :D thanks so much for this video, verry informative and helpfull, ill defenetly save it for the next years i love the feeling of not understanding a word, it tells me there is a lot to learn, and i love that
@@NathanCarterVids nono, the video was verry good to understand, I think I just need some time and practical implementation to slowly understand everything, thanks alot ❤️
I'm back! Thanks for all your support and kind messages. Lots of stuff planned for the coming months.
Really looking forward to it 😍🔥❤️

Glad you liked it!
Well explained thank you! Best full explanation so far of this pipeline!
This is so freaking informative. Glad you're back
Thanks!
great video I now understand pre clip clip and post clip and timeline... thanks

Absolutely. That's the reason I started the channel. Not many other folks making it, so I figured I'd give it a try myself.
U Always see everything in unique way ....thank u
Welcome back !!!
Thank you. I really appreciate it.
Great video, good to know the order of operations. The intro was pretty amazing...
Thanks. I had way too much fun with that. I personally love when a video gets me excited to learn, so that's what I was aiming for.
Great info and learning

Great points Jim, I hadn't considered that workflow. I really value your insight in the comments on my videos. Thanks for the support.

Awesome. Really happy you were able to get some use out of it.

i am glad you are back Nathan :-) Can you please a tutorial with a Energy Ball to shoot like Street Fighter Hadouken or Dragon Ball Z :-) PLEASE
Thanks! I'll see what I can do about that. I'm kinda leaning away from VFX, but who knows
Where is colorchecker in this pipeline? Between RAW and Color Management Project settings?
hi .. i have a question.. how to make color grading a landscape into grayish color? Can you make a video about that please

Hello Nathan, when can we expect a new VFX Tutorial in Fusion ? Best Regards
