I'm a complete beginner at both editing in Davinci Resolve and color grading. I just binge watched several of your videos, you're the only one who's helped me understand how to wrap my head around this complicated world of colors, LUT's, nodes, etc. And you've made me feel like I can actually learn all this. THANK YOU!
Holy moly! This channel is underviewed/subbed. I've watched dozens of other videos on grading etc and NONE come close to the professionalism and clarity of those in this channel... and none have the same sort of final result. Thank you!
Her timeline was already Rec.709 so you don’t have to define it since that would be redundant. You can change your timelines color space in the color management settings.

So what colour management space should I be in for the Kodak 2383 workflow? I'm using BRAW files shot in LOG. Do I have to have my timeline in Rec709??
So if you have already graded you footage and apply the LUT at the very end. Are you only adjusting the compound node? Or do you have to go back to the 1st set of nodes to find the balance?
Hi ! I did apply the LUT same as on this tutorial but my footage from Canon R5C filmed in log-2 looks even more horrible. Any advice please on what I’ve been doing wrong ?
So say if you importing S-Log 3 would it be correct to have grades in this order: CST from correct S-Log to Davinci wide gamut - Colour Grade Nodes - CST from Davinci wide gamut to Rec 709 and the gamma to Cineon Film Log - Kodak 2383 Film LUT. Then just deliver in Rec 709, Gamma 2.4?
I have a question 🙋♂️ why is CST (Color Space Transform) placed as the last node and not the first node? Your videos are very amazing and helpful!! (:
Because you want to work in wide color space. It’s like trying to modify and adjust a jpg vs a raw photo file. Once you apply the cst it becomes 709, which is like a finished jpg. So it goes way at the end, for final output like on YT. Only thing after might be something like grain as it’s not effected by color space, and you don’t want a bunch of different grain colors, by grading it earlier in pipeline.
@@jandwstudios9729partly correct. You can add the CST BEFORE and after. Example: N1 NR N2 CST - Camera profile > DaVinci WG N3 Adjustments N4 CST DWG > Cineon Film N5 Filmprint LUT In that way you’re working on the Rec709 clip in a DWG Color Space until the convertion. I normally create the CST in the beginning and end - and the LUT at the very end as described above, and work my way backwards on the node tree (From node 3 (or if you have Node 1-8, I would work from Node 6 and backwards)
Good question! So if you place cst on the first node, you’ll loose a lot the camera information as cst compresses the image to rec.709 so it makes the color space you’re working on also rec709 that is very often smaller than the original footage, I hope this makes sense!
By far the most straight forward and helpful video on the topic across the RUclips ;) Thanks
Thanks so much!

Even though I'm an "experienced" DaVinci user, I think it's great how you explained it! Well done!
Thank you!

Wow, thanks!
totally agree. plus the presentation is clear and paced well.
Most relaxing voice in the Resolve RUclips space! Plus: tons of good tips. 👌
Glad you think so!
finally, a clear demonstration on how to apply luts. Thank you
you are AMAZING. Thank you. All other tutorials tell you just a little while skipping steps to push you to buy workshops. So grateful, Subscribed!
It's really intersting. I never thought that there was additional information in the file for good correction
Thank you so much for your easy explanation.
You are welcome! I hope you’ll get interested in my course: colorgradinginsights.thinkific.com/courses/masteringcolorgrading
It is a pleasure to watch a professional work. Your explanation was informative, and I enjoyed the pacing and style of your video.
Thank you very much!
YOUR THE BEST . BEAUTIFUL AND PRO AT YOUR WORKS .THANK YOU
You are so welcome
Thank you very much. Really appreciated this video as all your others. Thank you.
Thank you Rodolfo!
Hola y feliz año.
La preciosa está de vuelta y es motivo de alegría.
Saludos.
Extraordinarily useful - thank you.
Thank you so much for this demonstration!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you and happy new year
Always good and to the point
This was very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for this! I wonder when you do the REC.709, why is there no output in the colorspace? well I mean why do you not define it?
Her timeline was already Rec.709 so you don’t have to define it since that would be redundant. You can change your timelines color space in the color management settings.
Thanks, much appreciated !
Thanks so much for the visit!
Great explanation, thank you !
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent video thanks
@@youtravel2567 Thanks! I hope you’ll join my course!
i hope this lut tutorial wud help me after watching 100 non working lut tutorials
I am asking for advice on how to do the correct color space transform on the Nikon Z6II
Why did you use 2 CST nodes instead of one? Can't you select the right selections on just one node?
Does the film conversion process involve rec709? Why wouldn't you use and project HLG 2100?
Thank you, you are great!
Thank you too!
Taka fajna kasia na YT co ma wiedzę o koloryzacjii i nie nagrywa po polsku :) tylko jak wszyscy po EN
Ja nawet nie mam tej nomenklatury po Polsku 😅

Dont you think that backgroud is a bit overexposed ?
Looking forward to making a LUT tutorial for logC4 of ARRI Alexa 35, thank you
Noted!
wonderful tutorial. Please do a tutorial on fujifilm flog cinematic look video
Where i can find that Kodak LUT´s?
Hi ! I did apply the LUT same as on this tutorial but my footage from Canon R5C filmed in log-2 looks even more horrible. Any advice please on what I’ve been doing wrong ?
Thanks!
Welcome! Please check out my Master Course as well!
nice work
Thanks for the visit!
Q - why you put cineon log and then film lut after red to rec709 convertion ?
Thanks :)
Welcome!
Thank u kasia
Thanks so much!
Darren Mostyn Influence
Thanks
Welcome!
Thanks
Welcome!
thank u 🤟🏼
No problem!!
Is it possible to just drop a cst at the start of the node tree to cineon log and the last would be your film look?
Thanks a lot.
Most welcome!
Can you make a tutorial for advanced recovery highlight with diferent type of cameras , like blackmagic and sony (most comun)
Good one
It would be nice if we could actually see your timeline settings.....
So say if you importing S-Log 3 would it be correct to have grades in this order: CST from correct S-Log to Davinci wide gamut - Colour Grade Nodes - CST from Davinci wide gamut to Rec 709 and the gamma to Cineon Film Log - Kodak 2383 Film LUT. Then just deliver in Rec 709, Gamma 2.4?
Yes!
Thanks for the reply, so would it be necessary to have a final CST to gamma 2.4 or no?
If I downloaded someone else's LUT, how do I know it's specifics? In Text it just says his name, not the specific gamma or input.
Yeah that’s the problem with LUTs purchased somewhere! The only thing you can do is to try it with your footage how it works!
Hello my DaVinci Siren! I knew about the 2383 but wonder about all the other luts I own. Is there some assumption I can make about them?
Hey! I’ve totally missed your comment! I’m using only resolve in build LUTs or the LUTs from the manufacturers, so it’s clear how to use them!
Is this node order correct?
Rec709 > CST(cineon) > Lut
Yes!
I did everything right, but when I apply the LUT it doesnt get warm at all... the red is just opaque. Someone else had this problem?
thanks mam.
TQ

@@jandwstudios9729partly correct. You can add the CST BEFORE and after.
Example:
N1 NR
N2 CST - Camera profile > DaVinci WG
N3 Adjustments
N4 CST DWG > Cineon Film
N5 Filmprint LUT
In that way you’re working on the Rec709 clip in a DWG Color Space until the convertion.
I normally create the CST in the beginning and end - and the LUT at the very end as described above, and work my way backwards on the node tree (From node 3 (or if you have Node 1-8, I would work from Node 6 and backwards)

@@colorgradinginsights wrong - You can easily output DWG on the first CST as described by me above.
@@SondreFormoLindheim Was answering the question why the cst node with an output to rec.709 should be placed at the end. Thanks.
I miss you and your work why are you absent so long
CST do it in one node
