    Anyone else stuck between Premiere and Davinci Resolve??

    This workflow is great, however it assumes that the edit entirely consists of clean cuts and no overlays and cross dissolves or what not, where there are blended images. What would be your approach for a more efficient workflow when dealing with those much more complex edits? Should you color grade first ?

    do you grade the little clips individually from here? or do you do one and copy it to everything, tweaking to match?

    • @TimmyLodhi

      I apply an overall grade to the entire video and then go clip by clip making exposure, white balance, and contrast adjustments.

    i feel like thismethod might degrade the quality because youre going compress the footage after the first export in premiere, and once again in davinci; tho I know its a high quality codec so to the common eye you might not notice a difference;
    nice alt method, but what was wrong with the .xml route if you don't mind me asking

    This is a fantastic tutorial. I am still trying to battle if I should use Davinci or Premiere to edit my overall project, but this helps a lot. Quick question though, have you tried going back to Premiere again after you do all your colour correction/grading on Davinci and export your final result through Premiere Pro? If you did, how did you do it without losing quality? Thank you!

    • @TimmyLodhi
      @TimmyLodhi  3 года назад

      I haven't! I imagine if you export from Davinci as a ProRes file you'll be dealing with very little quality loss. I'm still trying to learn Davinci myself so I totally understand where you're coming from. I will say that Davinci has equal if not better export options so it's worth taking a look at it.

    Great video! And it would be a great way to go, if premiere didn't export things with a shift in gamma (or contrast?) It was a problem years ago, I tried the latest version of cc, dropped some R5 footage, cut and edited everything to taste, then exported (ungraded) to prores as per client request. And the gamma was sadly different from original material. So it would be gradable (is it an English word?), but I guess that then corrective luts are not an option, for example. It's just incredible to me: I moved editing to Davinci because once you set color management correctly it's the only way I found I get exactly the same gamma and colors once exported. I guess your experience is different (or you don't use luts as a starting point, so grading a slightly different file is a non-issue(?). Or you don't have the problem. Would you find the time to elaborate your experience/point of view on the issue I'm experiencing? Tnx!

    This is great dude!
    After you finished your grade on Davinci and exporting, is there any quality loss?

    • @TimmyLodhi
      @TimmyLodhi  3 года назад

      None at all. A lot of pro colorists use this method when grading projects remotely for their clients. Seems to work perfectly for this use case!

    And i how to separated if there is cross dissolve effect?

    • @TimmyLodhi
      @TimmyLodhi  3 года назад

      That's a good question. Not sure if that's possible with this method as you would need extra heads and tails on both ends of the clip for a cross dissolve effect.

    This is a quality loss because you are not using the original raw footage but compressed Pro ress...

    • @TimmyLodhi
      @TimmyLodhi  3 года назад +1

      You’re right. There is a slight quality loss. But unless you zoom in to 400% to really analyze it, it’s unnoticeable.

    This makes absolutely no sense to me, why would you edit in an inferior editing program just to color correct in Davinci resolve. As an editing program… Resolve 17 is vastly superior to premiere pro in every possible way. Every single possible way! So why not just cut in Resolve and there you are ready to color correct. I was a premier pro editor for many years… But since resolve 17 there is no going back. After you spend a month or two in Resolve and then if you jump back into premiere Pro it will feel like a toy.

    • @TimmyLodhi
      @TimmyLodhi  2 года назад +1

      If that works for you, that’s awesome! But that’s not everyone’s workflow. I still prefer Premiere over Resolve for cutting.

      @@2424rocket Because I prefer a more simple user-interface, I’ve been editing with it for many years as well and I’m much faster at cutting with Premiere. I’ve tried ditching it and only using Resolve but I really prefer Resolve for the color grading features.
