This is amazing I’ve learned so much from your power grade and workflow its been so helpful for someone who is trying to get more into color grading and film emulation as of recent
Thanks a lot, Tom, you have literally fixed all the issues I had with V1, both are great but I like the order of operation here and the way you made it easier to get a great starting point.
this is wildly accurate, i built a similar power grade previously but your halation technique is so spot on that i now have to admit defeat and buy yours
I bought this powergrade and I'm impressed by a lot of the compound nodes, specifically the hallation but am wondering why you put the CST at the beginning of the node tree? I'd want to be working in DWG for the majority of the nodes and then output to 709 at the end of the node tree, no?
Amazing! Quick question..would this power grade work well with non log footage? I’m using the GH6 and usually avoid using VLOG and just shoot in the natural profile. Thanks
Hello Tom ! Your work on this emulation is so great and work perfectly, thank you very much ! I wanted to know if you had this problem once : When i apply the power grade, my all playback become very low (30 fps instead of 50). I thought it was the graphic card but i've changed it recetly for the RTX 3080 and i have the same problem. Did you have any idea what part of the emulation can do this and how to fix it ? Thank you very much and see you soon !
The most graphically intensive parts of the node tree are Denoise and Grain. If you’re having slow playback you can disable these. If you need to see them during playback, try lowering your project resolution
I'm Premier user but I really want to play around with this emulation so bad! Anybody know if this emulation will work fine with footage shot in Cine4 PP?

Hey Tom, are you going to have a black Friday sale on the cineprint16 v2, by any chance? I know 54 bucks is a great price but for us Brazilians, with the conversion rate from USD to Brazilian Real, plus, dumb international fees that our credit cards charge, it comes out to a little bit more than 300 Brazil bucks for us.

Hey there really like your work - I wanted to ask, my plan is to make short films but also do photography and I'd like to keep both at the same aesthetic, I'm really keen on buying this but I'd like to know if there's a way I can use these effects and just apply it in Lightroom. Thanks!
I am totally new to filming and want to start doing some color grading. The cineprint16 demos I have seen on youtube makes me want to buy this. What I want to know is when I shoot videos they are in raw format. I guess that means there is no color space done. Does it make it easier to apply this then? Really well done with the setup from the little I know
hey great video but i have a question. i already added the png's of the border to the media pool as matte but when i try using the 4x3 it still doesn't work, only the 16x9 :(
Hey, thanks for the great video. I'm interested in buying your product but my DP is a bit skeptical about using it for East Asian cast due to differences in skin tones. Do you think it's a valid concern? Would it be difficult to work on Asian skin tones?
You can use it on all types of skin tones. Here’s a sample reel of it being used on a variety of projects: ruclips.net/video/prEOWpaIkKk/видео.html If there ever are issues due to the reflectivity of colorful elements in the environment, or the color quality of the lighting, you can always correct for it with something like the color warper
