Great video! I always forced myself to edit in Lightroom because it's the standard way even though I'm way more experienced in Resolve.
Watching this made me realise that I should be more focus on the outcome rather than the methods.
Great point! That’s a good way to think about it.
how wonderfully informative, encouraging, and non-threatening. thank you for this - subscribed :)
You have the most cinematic face-cam shots I've ever seen. I'd love to see a breakdown of how you achieve this look. Equipment, grading etc.. You've got a sub from me 🙂
Thanks! I may break it down sometime but it’s honestly pretty simple
@@cknopikI hope you do that :) Image looks great. And thanks for the tips. Finally a video that actually helped me find how to export multiple pics at oncd.
Yes i agree - the talking head shot is amazing.
Wow, thank you for this amazing video! Exporting as PNG in Lightroom first totally solved my color space issues when converting RAWs to DNG. You're a lifesaver! ❤
Yep. I hate everything program and workflow that involves DNGs. If a program works on a raw file and outputs a dng then it will impart its own bad color science on that image. Ie it’s not really raw anymore. I wish more people would talk about that.
i love this so much, i’ve got a fuji xt2 and do a lot of photography, got into davinci a lot a few months ago and wanted to get cineprint 16, and to know i can use them for both is exactly what i wanted to know, you knocked this out of the park thank you for an amazing video!
U got photos posted on IG?
Great idea. i am gonna give it a try. What timeline setting do you use in the project? Do you just let the image setting auto create the timeline setting?
Just the video I was looking for. Thank you!
What’s your color management setting when editing photos? The reason I ask is because when exporting photos, sometimes it’s quite brighter than my exported videos. I’m using Mac with Asus ProArt set to rec709 gamma 2.2 on the monitor by the way. DWG + Rec709-A on my settings with display for mac color profile settings ON on Resolve as well.
When I upgraded to resolve 18.5, I asked for support of Sony's raw photo files (ARW) as I would like to use the magnific color grading panel from Blackmagic "anywhere" 😘 This would be the perfect workflow with greatest quality for me 🧙♀
Great video! And what a shots!
Great video!
What color transform output do you use? SRGB again probably or!?
This one vieeo changed my mind ❤🎉🎉 i will try this process 🎉🎉
I love it! I was hesitant to pay for a plugin like Dehancer just for a few film effects because it's like $300, but I hadn't considered using Resolve to add those film effects for images. Great vid!!
Love it man! Ever since you told me you were grading your stills this way I started experimenting with new methods… while traveling in Europe I ended up using the Dehancer mobile app which can do halation, bloom, and overall film emulation really nicely. As always, great video bro
I’m gonna have to try Dehancer Mobile. That seems like a great option.
Legend 🙏🏼🔥 exactly what I was looking for
i trusted you before you even speak because your videos is well color graded
Respect though for using the real Lightroom ( classic CC) 👌🏻
❤nice tutorial.i love the way you use for the filmprint node and cineon node at the same time. I will try it,nice job Carter，Ask for more tutorial of the cineprint16 thanks again!
Woohoo 🎉. I’ve been color grading stills on DaVinci for months too
bro I want to watch this in a theater ! How did you make a tutorial look like a movie haha I almost want to cry. Brilliant stuff mate !
Thanks for sharing! Really enjoying this channel.
Great video Carter!
This is awesome! Great idea.
Good stuff. I need to try this, I've never been really satisfied with film emulation in lightroom.
Likewise! I think some people have good luck with it in Lightroom, but the tools in Resolve let me get there much more efficiently and intuitively.
hi..im getting black bars on left and right in 1080p resolution.. can i pls know how to export with qood quality res and no side bars pls
You should do a atart to finish of how you edit...node 1" balance" node 2 Exposure node 3 LUT
Thanks for sharing - for me it seems like sRGB is not the best choice to work in since its a limited colorspace to tweak. It is what we are all looking at mostly on our computer displays but for editing purposes one could work with a bigger color space to have finer details and controls over the image. When exported it still can be converted to sRGB.
what this workflow of the video shows is like shooting raw footage - render it as mp4 and grade the mp4. The outcome is looks very nice - dont get me wrong but technically its self limited which ins unnescessary.
So what would you reccomend exporting it as? DNG? Or would you still use PNG but just a different color space?
@@burgoyne711 the output for displays in sRGB is totally fine. the input file format should be something like a dng / raw (don't know if davinci can open / handle them). A png or tiff with 16 bit is also better than jpg. But of course dont just resave a jpg as such - it has to come from a data heavy source. i dont have a workflow with davinci yet - thats why i watched your video. all i know is that you do the same with videos. you shoot in log to maintain image data as possible to grade it to convert it in a final step. if you work with an already converted to final output and therefore limited file you limit your possibilities.
In my view serious photography editing (stills) requires a dedicated application. Photoshop is the best known application, but I've used Affinity Photo for years and both apps edit circles around Davinci Resolve.. for video, effects, and sound I use Davinci
That’s a valid opinion. It seems we’re using them for different reasons. I would never tell someone they have to use a specific program, but I don’t think it’s bad to expand your options.
awesome video bro!
Ps. I love the video idea. I wish more people talked about it. Not a fan of the workflow headaches of using yet another program in my chain (current use capture one for raw conversion, then photoshop), but there are some things that I can’t do in photoshop that I can do in resolve. I wish Photoshop had a way to do a quick round trip!
Thanks for sharing love your work too. 🇬🇧
Hey Carter, I"m curious! What's your process for export? TIA!
In resolve I just use “grab still” from the color tab
Great looking video and stills man, :) Any particular tips that you have found when it comes to the metadata side of things? Organizing the final pictures without any metadata can be a little bit of a hassle for most apps like google photos and the like
True - I'm generally using this workflow for specific images rather than batch processing all of my images, so metadata is less of a concern for me. But I can definitely see how that would be a downside. If you figure anything out, definitely drop it in the comments here!
@@cknopik I do the exact same and have been doing for a while, but keeping personal photos in a searchable state for the future is a real issue and I have not yet figured out a way to partially import dates/gps data from the raw into the final output
Hi, I don't know why my files when exported are less saturated e with less contrast. Do you have any suggestion? I am trying to solve this problem. Thanks
Thanks!
was able to get this to work! it’s really cool! only question I have is, when I exported my vertical photos they came out with black bars on the side? I know I can change the timeline resolution BUT does that mean that the timeline has to only be vertical? or can i have horizontal photos too? i’m sure im missing something to small but just wanted to see if anyone else knew. thanks!
Love this! Adobe is such a wqste of money and constantly has issues.
Is that cineprint version 1 or 2
Great video!
Brilliant!!!
16bit PNG? Is that really smaller than a compressed tiff?!
And the problem with this workflow is going out to rec.709(or sRGB) is you’re throwing away a decent amount of your stronger colors that you could print (or view on wide gamut monitors and phones now).
see I thought I was crazy haha! I've been editing stills on davinci resolve with filmconvert nitrate for so long now! glad I'm not alone doing something similar
Glad to hear it! Gotta do what works best for you
Great set of videos! I haven't taken stills in over 5 years of working as a DP/1stAC and I feel it's exactly what I need to get my creativity flowing again. I just got a good offer for a brand new x100v and I'm considering getting it. Do you usually just shoot raw in camera? Or are there any specific settings that give you better results to edit in resolve with a power grade? Thanks in advance!
Love to hear that! It’s been a great creative practice for me. I shoot RAW and use the Astia picture profile, but that doesn’t matter too much for this workflow. I definitely hope you get back into photography and find some joy in it!
@@cknopik Thanks, Carter! Really appreciate all the knowledge, keep up the great videos, will be back for more when there's a new one!
Can we look into how to use DNG curve files that some ppl provide online to extract a curve within resolve? Sorta convert LR presets or curves into Resolve usable LUTs or Stills.
3:30 when I export a RAW photo to .png (16 bit) in LR, it weighs, for example: 120 MB and when I export the same photo to .dng, it weighs 26 MB :D Am I doing something wrong? By the way, you're doing a great job. Thank you for sharing this with other people :)
No, that’s the normal thing actually, RAW files aren’t even photos, they are data! That’s why they are bigger because they have much information, you extracted from them what is important to have a photo with either JPEG JPG PNG extensions, if you want, choose DNG or keep the original, but I am not sure if you are going to use blackmagic da vinci resolve/studio accepts raw files, you can try if it doesn’t work so keep with DNG and final results will be jpeg/jpg/png as you like so that you save space
Thank you, Carter.
Do you know how to get rid of the purple or overly red lips that cine print 16 keeps giving me in my footage? 😭
I generally turn on the Neon Suppression and Vintage nodes which helps tone down the saturation a bit. You could also play around with some hue vs adjustments. Best of luck!
Great video. If I have DNG files, what color space should I choose? Thanks
Do you have trouble with the quality of the images? My files being brought into davinci are very sharp, but when I grab stills from DaVinci, the quality drop is pretty substantial. Is there a certain way your exporting out of Davinci?
I would make sure your timeline resolution settings in DaVinci match your image resolution. It defaults to 1920x1080 which is likely lower than your source image resolution.
Hi great tutorial, I loved it. Just one thing I wanted to ask by grabbing still my pictures look all washed out (desaturated and contrast less). How to solve this? Does this also happen to you?
This is a pretty common issue and there are several ways to address it, but it largely depends on your specific situation and setup. I would start by looking into color managed workflows.
Try changing your color space and timeline to Rec 709-A. That should help so what you see in your viewer is what’s exported.
how do we open pics in resolve? i am a ps user and feel stupid but i cant open my raws or jpegs..
awesomee! how did you add border?
Thank you! The borders are a feature in CinePrint16. In includes a few mattes to choose from. There are several options elsewhere online as well.
Can I use presets in this software?
can u edit in RAW photo in this Software?
Is there a way to specify resolution, say if I had a 6000x4000 Jpeg going into Davinci and wanted to export that same specification out?
Just make your timeline that resolution
Hi Carter, thank you for this video. Did I understand correctly, you manipulating PNG images in DR? Not raw? For some reason I thought DR and its colour tab is all about raw footage (picture).
That’s correct! Resolve won’t read the RAW files from Fuji, so that’s why I take it through Lightroom first.
@@cknopik you could convert to DNG, that's what I did with my sony raws
@@danteuss88 that’s true! I find that PNG is a good balance of quality and file size for my uses, but DNG is a great option as well.
@@danteuss88what color space are you using when using DNG?
Whenever I export my photos look flat. How can I fix this?
Please cineprint 16 in lightroom ❤
How do u export high quality stills? My still comes out as low quality than the original photo
if you are using cineprint then maybe turn off the blur node! you just made me realize that on my edit and once i turned it off it came out as crisp as the original
If Davinci had support for Sony Raw Images, I would literally do everything media related in Davinci.
cool guy!
Wow! The only tool that is missing from Resolve is the healing brush from Photoshop I think. THEN it could be better than Photoshop for image editing. And it's FREE!
True! If you follow this workflow you could handle that step in Lightroom before exporting into Resolve.
@@cknopik Cool.
❤
how can I get the cineprint16??
The link is in the description of this video
The drawback of exporting still in DR is losing the original metadata including the GPS.
Tutor 👍
But lets talk about the quality after exporting?
Sadly this is it, the export file size even if you bump up the project settings just isn’t high enough res to be of any use apart from online purposes
I WANTED TO HEAR WHAT YOU HAD TO SAY BUT THE MUSIC DROVE ME AWAY.
first
Man honestly, this music just annoys and does not helps to listen ^_^
This is definitely not for beginners..
interesting idea., thanks.
had to stop watching because music was too annoying. ;/
Thanks for the feedback!
The music is the same level as your voice. It made it hard to hear what you’re saying. IMO the music is unnecessary. Look at other photo tutorials on RUclips. No music.
is it possible to edit with cineprint with my Canon EOS 6D Mark IIfor filming not photos ??
I’ve not used that camera but if you’re able to shoot LOG it should in theory be possible. Although I highly recommend a robust codec and bit rate for any footage going through CinePrint.
@@cknopik the camera doesnt have log thats why im a bit worried
