This is phenomenal. I only shoot stills, but a lot of this can be applied to editing photographs. Thank you for all of the effort you put into every aspect of this video.
This is all way over my pointy head, as I am still looking for the Go button my my camera and DaVinci, but I want to share my thoughts for other filmmakers who are in my spot and level of knowledge: I find advanced methods and theory will float in my head as I work and bits that I saw you cover here Jimmy comes down and touches my brain at the moment I need it. I have trained adults for years, and we think differently as adults. We are most interested in finding things we know and applying new information for adults to digest. It's Why adults always pester instructors with "Why?" They aren't like kids when you could say, "I told you so, that's why" and get away with it.😂 Great stuff, Jimmy, you rock!
My 10 minutes not wasted with bs vlogging about editing. You went straight to the point! I've been editing for years and still wanted to learn everyday. Saw a lot of video editing channels that are full of crappy intros and dialogue. Youre in the right track! Hope my comment made your day man! Keep it up!
thank you for your help, this is super educational even for someone that doesn't film or create video to better understand how film achieves such looks in cinema.
once your channel is going to boom, you are the underdog right now.... i am currently making my first non-feature for film festival this year. In my mind i will always be thankful to people like you who helps people like with no cost literary.. i have great respect for you guys i hope god will return you the same favor that your doing for us brother. Keep it up Take care brother
Your Work is amazing, not only it is but your ability to share is the perfect balance between vulgarisation and technical still. Love your work man keep going and thank you !
This is a super helpful and informative video! I haven’t seen bigger RUclips channels covering color grading go this in depth with color science and creating a film look, especially with dtcl. Thank you! 🙏🏽
This video is amazing! The way you explained something so complex and made it simple for everyone to understand is awesome. There are no video about look development on youtube. Thank you so much for putting the effort and uploading this is gold in terms of color grading videos of youtube. PD: Let us by the kodak 50d lut alone plss
Really appreciate your thought process behind these videos! You're pov is definitely a unique one in this space. Learning a lot from each video watched. Subscribed!!
Great tutorial. As far as I know in the HSL saturation node the gamma affects the lower saturated areas and the gain affects the higher saturated areas and not the midtones and highlights.
Really really good video that WAY MORE people need to watch. I can't stand the "how to create *insert popular movie* look" videos where they onky grade one single shot using color correction tools and heavy qualitiers. Not only the result is never very good, the "look" falls apart as soon as you try to apply it on other shots. It's just misinformation and onky confuses beginners.
I really love your approach to color grading (well...look development!). I've been working with Resolve for years now and you are one of the few on RUclips that understand well the "film look". By the way, which DTCL are you using? Is it the Hue Bezier Split-Tone DCTL? I would like to try it :) Thanks for your work and for sharing your knowledge.
Great stuff personally I'm quite a bit beyond this simple grade but great stuff for people getting into color grading behind a film lut, I think this will help a lot of burgeoning colorists to help them understand the different rooms between the luts they use. Great work buddy!
Yeah absolutely, you can easily export LUTs from Resolve to load them on a monitor. Normally for grading you would want to use 65 point LUTs but for on set monitoring 33 point LUTs are preferred as most monitors don’t support 65
@@jimmyonfilm the LUTs should be in 3d right? Should i dev look using tetra tool in fusion or normal node should be fine? Also can the LUTs contain CST and color choice together?
@@ahappyreindeer3383 yes, they should be 3D. Starting from Resolve 18 you can export LUTs even when using dctls so it’s super handy and I would use the color page cause it’s way more neat than fusion. Yes the LUT would include CST. I don’t understand what you mean with color choices could you expand? :)
@@ahappyreindeer3383 yes, you can. You can pretty much create the look that you want, and if it’s emulating film and that’s the look you want than you can save it as a LUT. For example with tetra you can get pretty close at emulating film negative. If you’re talking about using film emulation plug ins in a node and then export a LUT, I’m not sure every plug in would allow that, but I might be wrong, maybe they all do hahah. As in term of color grading; I would consider a look LUT as broad strokes and I would go for keys or crazy adjustments cause it would limit the flexibility of the LUT
Could you use the color warper + qualifier limited to highlight and do another node for shadows instead of the paid dctl? I understand the curves could do it too, but I always find those to be too sensitive and inaccurate
Yes, you just need to decode the Braw file into ArriWideGamut (color space) and ArriLogC (gamma) from the camera raw tab. Or use a color space transform. Overall it works very nicely with black magic footage
Yess, but the tools to create a look could be more sophisticated then the color grading ones. For example in the look dev process one could use Tetra DCtL to define the rendition of skin tones (any color really) which is a way more sophisticated and less prone to breakage compared to using the HSL curves in Resolve. While in color grading process you would use simpler or more “sharp” tools to tweak the footage to make it fit the look the best possible way
The color gradient is a 2D representation of a 3D cube it doesn’t have a color space. Just like a grey scale ramp. So Basically what I’m doing is comparing the smoothness of 2 transformations
every film youtuber yaps and yaps about the same tips, thank you for something useful

Thanks! I’m glad you found some value on a video on this topic!
I mainly only do photography too, are you another still shooter that is interested in film emulation? Would love to chat if so!
@@JGphotoyt I am. I use a cool app called Dehancer.
@@JGphotoyt yeah lot of times i grade my photos in Da Vinci Resolve also. it turns out great! i use it a lot as cover for my video.
Is there anywhere we can talk more about this? Trying to learn this process myself@@ChonchonChristian

Complimentoni, sei uno dei più interessanti e precisi.
Your knowledge & skill are AMAZING. So glad I found your channel!
Thankyou for making this video! On what monitor are you grading here?
Your videos are incredible, so much knowledge and value presented in a way that’s easy for me to understand. Thanks for the work you put into these!!
yep, Kaur Hendrickson is really nice young guy - has a great attiude and extremely smart. Great tool to help with grading looks.

thank you, this is so helpful! also love the lighting in your intro shot!
Where yo can find the ARRI still that you use as sample? Everyone seem like using that still, but I don't know where to download it
Excellent work. I’m really impressed with your videos. Subbed.

amazing tutorial! very helpful! Thank you Jimmy!
Is there a way to do something similar for still photography? Regardless really interesting stuff, I subscribed right away!
Thank you for this video! Does this apply to showluts for camera use?
This is awesome brother, well explained!

absolute gem!!!

Does your kodak 50d lut works with braw?
Yes, you just need to decode the Braw file into ArriWideGamut (color space) and ArriLogC (gamma) from the camera raw tab. Or use a color space transform. Overall it works very nicely with black magic footage
So look development is creating a grade that applies well over all your shots, and coloring is tweaking it afterwards?
Yess, but the tools to create a look could be more sophisticated then the color grading ones.

If you made some luts for dji d-log, i'd totally buy them off you in a flash
why applying CST from LogC to Cineon on a 4-color gradient that is in rec709?
The color gradient is a 2D representation of a 3D cube it doesn’t have a color space. Just like a grey scale ramp. So Basically what I’m doing is comparing the smoothness of 2 transformations
Why is your gamma 2.2 and not standard 2.4
Cause my monitor has a gamma of 2.2
My jaw dropped when you paused yourself 😮
This is just another DCTL
dude i can barely hear you, whats wrong with your sound level?
