I can relate with this. Early on my video colors looked so blown out and it’s because I learned when editing you log footage, it first needs to be converted to Rec 709 (color correcting) and THEN you can apply your LUT (color grading). So there’s really two steps and not what every says about just slapping a LUT on your footage. I edit in Davinci resolve so in the nodes section, I add a node for color correcting (add your corrective LUT) then add another node for your LUT. I think I might make a video on this pretty soon as well as you aren’t the only one but there are great videos out there for this. Hope this helps!
I use DR also. My log workflow is something like this: Make 3 Nodes. CST using Fuji Eterna conversion lut on the 2nd node(I use Fuji). Go back to the first node and do Basic adjustments(WB, exposure & Contrast). 3rd node is color grading for a certain look. More nodes added for masks and trackers etc.
@@NunoGomes_ it seems we work similarly. I use three nodes in total right now. I don’t do anything on the first node. On the second one is where I’m converting to rec 709 and making my minor adjustments there with the goal of making it look as real life as possible. On the third one is where I add my LUT and make very minimal adjustments only because most of the adjustments are made on the second one. I never touch the first node. Now I am absolutely no expert because color correcting/grading is new to me and definitely I want to master it in the coming years but that is the simplest way I have found. Regardless of the process I just always strive to make it look as real as possible and this video was also shot right in front of a large window flooding in with natural light. The natural light has been huge for me and I try and record with that as much as possible.
Is the tic-tic-tic from the music or mic? Distracting. Apart from that Great vid dude! Keep up and the subs will grow! Subd. If you ever come to the Azores shoot a DM and lets shoot!
Hey thanks!! That’s actually coming from the music. I’m guessing it was lowered just enough to wear. The high hat sound from the jazz music is coming off as a slight tick. Because if you go to parts of the video where there’s no music, there is none of that. Will definitely throw it out if I end up in that area for a shoot!
That has an RF mount so I personally would recommend either the 35 mm or 50 mm. I am using the 50 mm a whole lot since I recorded this video about a week ago and it’s a fun focal length. 35 mm is a little pricier and gives wider angles but either one of these two gives better results than the kit lens. Depending on what you’re shooting. 24 mm might also be good but 35 is just the perfect focal length right now for me since I do a lot of out door stuff. Also I’m talking about ones with 1.8 aperture and not the L series since those are on another level.
Hello, how can I achieve this natural look, are there any exposure tips, lut, I feel like my videos come out very bright.

For the r7 what lens do I go instead for the kit lens

The 35mm and 24mm are sharper than the 50mm
@@David12212 I agree I was just coming at it from a more budget friendly option
