Well done! I followed your video on how to shoot properly for S-Log3, and then this for grading. Ended up with the best looking shot yet on my A7siii. It's a nice confidence boost going into a shoot next month.
Never been able to colour grade an S-Log footage for as long as i could remember. Thankyou for the brilliant guide through! I was surprised that I could finally colour grade the footages!
Im so Lucky that I found your channel matt, your tutorial videos are super awesome and informative as well as your way of explaining is really satisfying to watch, Thanks a million!!
Such a helpful video! Just filmed my first professional video and decided to shoot SLOG instead of Sony’s PP for the first time and was a bit daunted by the colour correction - I normally start with basic correction then move into the other realms but it just wasn’t working for me so went looking for answers and found your video. Thanks for the awesome tips 😊
You don't need to go to the effects panel to copy the Lumetri color. Just right-click on the clip and click copy. Then when you go to paste it you specify that you want to paste Lumetri color (if you've added other effects, you can uncheck those boxes).
Amazing video my friend! You're explained this process perfectly. The one thing I wanted to ask is, what do you think about using the rec. 709 LUT? I see everyone using s-log3 then rec709 and then they do the color correction etc. But after watching this video I was wondering if rec.709 is necessary or not...
Saw this video last year and my grading has really changed all thanks to you Matty. Please which camera did you use for this? I use an 8 bit sony A7RIII and it’s difficult to get back contrast and colors in post
2 years later and this video is still helping people out. Thanks for the useful tips! The curve adjustments were clutch. I never knew that the low end was for shadows and the tip end was for highlights. Super helpful :)
Hi Matt, I have waited for this a long time, because there is nothing quite like it. So, thank you very much. I also do like your word creations, like "Hero-Shot" :-) I have just a few questions, if you would be so kind to answer: - In the intro you display Gamma: S-Log3 and Color Mode: S-Gamut3.cine. I do know that this is your preferred Picture-Profile when it comes to 8bit video. Since it can not be stretched too far, befor you are loosing out. So here is the question: Was this made in 8bit, or does it only apply to 10bit? - I was surprised to see that you are working the clips directly. Was this for demonstration purposes? Why not make use of the adjustment layers? Or do you see an advantage in applying the process directly to the clips. Thanx again - you are my Post-Production Hero!
Hey Matt! At 18:04 when the groom was using his hand to hold his coat, his hand looks very green (probably from the grass you mentioned out of the window). Is this something which was overlooked, or is this not possible to fix? Love your tutorials so far, thanks for the time you put into this to help us all! Much love!
Do you usually color grade your footage without a conversion lut ? Just got the a7siii and I'm starting to experiment more with slog3. Thanks for the tips. Help me not be as intermediated.
First off, great tutorial. Thank you Matt, always a fan, even though I use Final Cut. But question: What are the advantages of shooting in S-log in low light scenarios? My understanding of the advantages of log profiles in general is that it can capture more dynamic range between the highlights and the shadows, so I totally understand using S-log outdoors during the day. But what about in low light, like the reception scene in your tutorial? There's obviously no bright sky in the background, and I personally feel like all the information can be captured sufficiently enough in Cine4. Cine4 has more range than the default PP, doesn't require a higher ISO to overexpose, and doesn't require as much time to color grade. So... am I missing something here?
That’s a good option as well. For my filming style where I’m filming run and gun very quickly, I don’t necessarily want to add having to change the picture profile as well (and remember what I am in). :)
I usually use the curves first because it makes it easier to see the effects of shifting the colors. There are lots of other scopes but I was trying to keep this as easy as possible :)
Hi Matt, I have been trying to shoot in picture profiles and your videos given me the confidence to do so more often. But I am struggling with a setting while shooting in manual exposure to be able to use all of my settings manually my Sony a7iii doesn’t let me change my metering to +0.7 like yous suggested in your other video from the dial. Please help I have been trying to change few settings but still not working
Love this tutorial Matt! I would be interested in how you would properly white balance and shoot during the reception/church, which usually has mixed lighting, which I struggle with shooting properly.
I feel like I always struggled grasping color grading, I always found it VERY difficult to understand. Your one video had me understand it better than all the videos I've watched prior combined. Love the content man, definitely gained a new subscriber with this one!
Can someone please write me y we cant see a blue sky and clouds , is it due dynamic range ? Im sony shooter but now i have an R5 for testing , on my sony a7iii witout a log i guess i had a better dynamic range... thnx for response
Well he increased the brightness of the highlights. But based on the scopes, they were not blown. I'm not sure why he did this, but I guess he wanted to sort of wash out the sky. Had he turned highlights down a bit, some color would've come back in the sky.
Hello, I have a sony a7siii, I want to purchase your LUT package. If I use your LUT package for my video recordings, should I record in SLOG3 of Cinetone?

❗ Save time color grading with my presets for SLOG3: whoismatt.com/luts
@Mohsin Alvi He isn't saying that they are free...

I need those luts
I need this luts

DUDE your my new teacher , defff very impactful in your teaching
I really appreciate your videos man! I always pick up something that speeds up my workflow. If you're ever in Chicago I owe you some cocktails!
this is the best explanation of color grading i've ever watch
the most recommended video for the explanation, I am very grateful for explaining in this detail. please keep it up.

Brother you are a great teacher 🇮🇳❤️
I just started filming videos with my camera. This explanation is insane. Eventhough i use davinci resolve, this helped my basic understanding a ton.
Awesome! Glad to help Alexander!
I just got an A7SIII and your videos have been a blessing. I’m coming from a Canon 80D, so editing in LOG is totally new to me.
Thank you. First good color correct tutorial for my first time try of sLOG on my new #sonyA7iv - worked out in Adobe Prem!
Love this. Reassured me on a lot of things and taught me some new things about curves. Really enjoyed watching it
Thanks Dalton!
Your way of explaining is funny. Entertains me. I like yoi 😆😎

this video is good but unable to know which is the metric to decide if its perfect.. can you make a video how to use your LUTS or any other luts.
as far as i remember most of the youtubers start with basic correction..and then curves and then hue vs hue etc etc :)
3:45 felts exactly like that when tried to fix slog3 first time XD which is now XD
Who is Matt? Um YOU are Matt. Thanks Matt
I love you dude
thanks for making it simple.
it took me until JUST before you said it to notice that there were smol donkeys - I must be tired 😂

Hey! Overlooked that due to not wanting to get too nitpicky with the tutorial :) this could be fixed
Thanks sir love from Pakistan..
Isn't the curve tool just a different interface to adjust the aspects shown in basic correction?
this is a really good youtube video
Do you film your slow mo footage in s&q or do you slow the speed down in premiere ?
You’re the best
you are amazing
thx for the help, also editing bit faster help b/c need it
bro you rock
Hey, great content... Do you have anything related in Davinci....?
Really good video
I'm shooting Apple Log footage. It's the same right?
Thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos! Been a huge help with me getting started. Can’t thank you enough! 👏
Thanks Mike!
Phenomenal
Do you usually color grade your footage without a conversion lut ? Just got the a7siii and I'm starting to experiment more with slog3. Thanks for the tips. Help me not be as intermediated.
HI Matt, how are you? Do you have any offer for SLOG3 color present. If so , let me know - wish to purchase , USD97 is out of my budget. Thank you
This is the video I have been searching for. Thank you so freaking much for spelling out slog for me. I feel like my filming just got upgraded!
content is very funny and so much things to learn this humorous guy heads up!
I'm here since you remind me of Alan from The Hangover lol
Hello , do you have a new export settings for a7sIII in premiere pro for weddings ?
Thanks for this! Starting with the black and white points on the Curves is such a big first step in the right direction.

You are an amazing teacher. Thank you for making this tutorial
hi Matt, thanks for this! Question: what do you think of setting Exposure Compensation to +1.7 on the Sony A7siii when shooting SLOG3?
Thanks for sharing! So you think it's best to do SCurve, then color then saturation? Do you use scopes as well or just the waveform?
I usually use the curves first because it makes it easier to see the effects of shifting the colors. There are lots of other scopes but I was trying to keep this as easy as possible :)
@@whoismatt Got it thank you for the help!
Do you have any luts optimised for Rec 2020 ?
Hi Matt, I have been trying to shoot in picture profiles and your videos given me the confidence to do so more often.

Mooooood 🐮
What are your exact camera settings here? S-Log3 und S-Camut3.Cine? Have you changed anything on saturation or details? I'm shooting with a A7IV
Thanks so much for this Matt! I really need it. Greetings from Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Faster way: copy clip, select another clip and shortcut: option+command+V (paste attributes) and voilà you pasted Lumetri color.
good
Please make video how to color grading SLO3 S Gammut on Davinci Resolve Matt.
If my job knew how much I rely on your videos they would die LOL (ps if they are reading this I'm mostly joking)
You are the best, Man thank you all the best 👏🏼👏🏼
Nowadays I am trying to take a shot with slog3.
Your video is really helpful.
Thank you.🥰
I wish my lecturer explained things like you do
✌
i always add a adjusment layer and do my correction in there along with my money shot. great video man than you.
bro i like your rection ...love from Bangladesh
Great video Matt!! Can you use this luts in the real estate field??
But me I am using Sony a3000 and nikon d7100 how do I get there.
Amazing video Matt, thanks for sharing your tips. Can any camera shoot in SLOG3?
"Its all connected" brings me to the serie Manifest! Have u seen it?
You're doing gods work here my man! thank you so much
have you tried color grading insta360 one r 1 inch log?
Love this tutorial Matt! I would be interested in how you would properly white balance and shoot during the reception/church, which usually has mixed lighting, which I struggle with shooting properly.
Hey thanks! Watch my white balance explained video on my channel. That should provide a bit of insight :)
@@whoismatt Awesome will do!
I feel like I always struggled grasping color grading, I always found it VERY difficult to understand. Your one video had me understand it better than all the videos I've watched prior combined. Love the content man, definitely gained a new subscriber with this one!
Love you
It's the best tutorial I have ever seen this year
Thank you for sharing this great video. Incredibly helpful.
Such a great video! Love how you explain everything so easy, so even beginners understand all the things you are saying. Thank you so much!
I wish I had more like buttons.
Matt do these pre made luts work for clog 3 footage off a canon r6 ?
Yes use the standard luts and they should work great for clog3
Can someone please write me y we cant see a blue sky and clouds , is it due dynamic range ? Im sony shooter but now i have an R5 for testing , on my sony a7iii witout a log i guess i had a better dynamic range... thnx for response
Well he increased the brightness of the highlights. But based on the scopes, they were not blown. I'm not sure why he did this, but I guess he wanted to sort of wash out the sky. Had he turned highlights down a bit, some color would've come back in the sky.
Hello, I have a sony a7siii, I want to purchase your LUT package. If I use your LUT package for my video recordings, should I record in SLOG3 of Cinetone?
They work with both!
Thank you! I purchased the LUT package yesterday.
Hello Matt, very nice presentation. You are very good teacher. Do you have luts available that can be used with the IPhone Pro 13?
Awesome Awesome & Aweosme
