Bro I’ve just started to try grading and I’ve failed over and over and seeing you do this soo easily gave me hope that maybe one day I could be half as good as you are, love from the UK bro 🇬🇧
With all due respect- there is almost no technical foundation to your corrections and choices. I say almost because there are a few I can see you know what you’re doing. However may I propose that you make another tutorial and slow down a bit. It’s like you rushed through this just to get to the end. I like your node tree workflow Inspired by DVR and I use a similar FCPx work flow. There are hardly any good FCPX technical Colour grade tutorials on RUclips and the few that are great and professional are trying to sell you something. I think you could really carve out a niche here for yourself. You’ve got the skills - just package the Information up in a more technical work flow and use the scopes and explain how important using scopes are 😉
I bought the Classic Teal and Orange LUT and applied it into my clip in FCPX and my colors are neon. Please let me know how to properly upload it or what I am doing wrong. Thank you!
Hey! I just emailed you with the correct luts that I think are probably what you are looking for. Classic Teal n Orange lut is designed for VLOG footage for Lumix Cameras
@@MatthewDangyou Thank you so much for helping me Matthew! I love the LUTS you sent. I am still learning a lot, but you made it really easy to apply these LUTS! Beautiful colors!
This is great. So if I understand correctly, essential with LUTs you need to add Rec 709 first and then the custom LUT, correct? As a newbie I was just adding the custom LuT only and disappointed with the look. But now I know because of your video that I should have added Rec 709 first. I’m also using Final Cut Pro. Does it make a difference if Rec 709 is below or above the custom LUT on an adjustment layer? The other confusing thing is that some LUTs seem to work in place of Rec 709 like the Panasonic Nicest LUT.
Some luts are designed as conversion luts and some luts are designed at just added look luts. And yes it does matter where you put your conversion lut vs where you put your added look lut.

@@MatthewDangyou Thank you! Yes, I’m just now learning to shoot in v-log which is why I’m starting to use LUTs. Is there any trick to know when a LUT is intended as a conversion LUT vs a look LUT?
@JoshPostVlogs it just depends where you use the luts. I have a package of my vlog conversion luts, then I have another package with my added look luts. You can input them into Final Cut Pro and be able to label the folders which do what
Glad this helped! Yeah keep it super simple. My grades don’t go crazy and if I need them too I can with color mask and all that. But to get a clean looking image can be just a few simple steps!
You can use an adjustment layer and color grade on that. Orrrrr do your basic color corrections, then add the adjustment layer at the end for minor color grades and luts to apply to all the clips :)

Dude you will get it down so fast. Honestly I want to start practicing and creating more specific looks myself too. All just practice to make perfect
thank you... I'm ready to take the look of my filmmaking to the next level & this really helps....
Awesome! Stoked to hear it
Great tutorial, but i miss the WB in the color correction…

@lemonislandbynatalie of course! Glad it is working out!!
Hi! What do you think about people switching to DaVinci Resolve? worth it or FCP is still good?
I honestly am a laptop editor by choice, and find FCP to be the fastest software to edit on
where is the link to raw files?
in the bio :)
@@MatthewDangyou Got it, thanks brother..

You are so good at this. This vid is saved for a future deep-dive into a task I've been decent-at-best at for decades.

You said "contrast" quite often. What is a "contrast"?
It is the difference in brightness between light and dark areas of an image
Thanks for this video. Have you any video on how to add the same colour across all clips? I want to have a uniform look on my videos.
You can use an adjustment layer and color grade on that. Orrrrr do your basic color corrections, then add the adjustment layer at the end for minor color grades and luts to apply to all the clips :)
What about white balanc?
Amazing video 🎉
Thank you . Very helpful
Glad it helped you out!
