Thank you so much for this video. It was easy to follow and use for a beginner and now I just have to practice. :)

After watching many tutorials on color grading I’ve determined it’s basically just an overpowered Hue/Saturation slider, no matter the LUTs used any adjustment to a wheel will always wash the entire image in one overwhelming color. It’s leagues easier to just film the shot with the proper settings than spend hours on a color slider.

Coaching the next generation of video editors! 🎉

I'm really impressed with the final result, I'm actually using premiere pro, but I decided to learn color grading with davinci resolve so I can elevate my skills to another level, davinci's interface looks kind of alien but I like working with nodes so there's no big problem

this is my first time color grading tysm for this fun tutorial

Thanks for the detailed tutorial! And that's HongKong btw!

HE HEARD MY PLEAS😭❤️ Thank you so much for this Marc you’re a life saver fr, I want to get better and this is what I needed

Thanks for the presets 👉👈

I was about to watch that first video till i saw you posted an update (this video) directly under it

That was fantastic. I’m going to use this as a guide to grade my next video!

Haha, it's enjoyable to see ourselves improve the results of our old work. Your node tree would probably be better if you observe color grading channels like Darren Mostyn, Cullen Kelly, etc. But I'm sure everyone has their own time to develop!

00:18 🎥 The video discusses the color grading process in DaVinci Resolve for beginners. 01:12 🌈 Setting the color management in DaVinci Resolve to the appropriate color space and output is crucial. 01:54 🖥 Use Mac display color profiles for viewers to ensure consistency between editing and final export colors. 02:21 🎨 Adding nodes and using LUTs can help adjust the initial color space and improve exposure. 03:17 ⚙ Adjusting settings like white balance, contrast, and color tones can enhance the overall image. 05:08 📊 Fine-tuning settings for highlights, mid-tones, and shadows can improve image quality. 07:01 ✨ Adding effects like sharpness and glow can enhance the visual appeal of the video. 08:44 🌅 Adjusting the color balance and highlights can create a unique look for the video. 11:19 🖼 Adding a vignette can focus attention on the subject and balance the lighting. 12:57 🌟 Using noise reduction techniques can help clean up the image while preserving details.

Greate tutorial - I have tried to color grade in Davinci by following many tutorials, but this one made sense :D.

some of these tutorials are not beginner-friendly, just jumped into a project like we knew how it already works...how do you get the files open?, that's the sequence, if we knew everything already we wouldn't be looking for tutorials

Instantly subsribed. The way you speak is very good. Audio quality is peak.

This was a good tutorial. I’m new to DaVinci Resolve. Thank you for sharing this with us!

It would be better if you show me the scope.

So informative!! Thank you 🥰🥰 you’re so talented

Really loved the content! Although this video is a year old, it is still very useful.

Thank you so much for the video! This was a good tutorial, Taking notes.

That was so cool! thank u! watching the transformation was so enjoyable!

Mark Taraz. The Real Top G

thanks for such a great video, very helpful to start my switch from adobe premiere to davinci

best coloring ever you help me a lot thank you bro

Thanks for the vid, this got my foot in the door- got my vid well color corrected now! Now to figure out how to do a quick fade, then the video is ready to export. TY, sub earned!

You nailed this. Great video.

Thank you for the tutorial! 2 questions: what would have happened, if you put everything in 1 node and how can a beginner fasten the process?

1:47 I don’t see the “external scripting” or “use mac display” options, im using the latest upgrade is this outdated? Or is it cuz im using the free version?

best and easy color grading video. Thank your video.

my doubt is why did you put all the nodes.......i think thats just to show us editing process or does it have any other purpose in the colourgrading process

hey! how do you know where to put the node on the chain? like, in the begging of the video you added a node the middle of the two first nodes. Why? And at the end, you decided to put the node for noise reduction before every node you already had created... How do you make those kinds of decisions? Thanks

Looked amazing.

Thank you so much for this video its really for beginners

I’m subscribing! You made magic here 💫! Hopefully I can get up to that level one day

Incredible Color grade !!

Nice video Marc! Thanks a lot, finally getting into Dacvichi 😍

Thank you so much!!! Great tutorial!

Hard to color without using waveform.

I'm loving your presentation style! One question though, are your chosen settings geared towards Mac platforms or do they also work for Windows-based setups?

Thanks for this video! Very informative :) I've tried learning Davinci the last few days. Main issue I face is that when I use the selector to choose an area I want to change colors or change luminosity, once I touch it, the image becomes super "glitchy" when playing the video, like the software is not strong enough to compute all the images and doing the job properly. Any idea how to fix that? Thanks :)

Why you don't use first Input CST Node in node tree for Wide Gamut in this case ? (as Waqas Qazi) : Input Color Space - Sony S-Gamut3.Cine Input Gamma - Sony S-Log3 Output Color Space - DaVinci Wide Gamut Output Gamma - DaVinci Intermediate And last node in node tree - Output CST: Input Color Space - DaVinci Wide Gamut Input Gamma - DaVinci Intermediate Output Color Space - Rec.709 Output Gamma - Rec.709-A

Thanks Marc! Fantastic tutorial!!!

Thanks for your explanation and share education about color grading 🙏🙏🙏😎

thanks a lot bro ill learned colour grade from u n im from india bro love u

Thank you so much for this🙌🏾

I'm completely new to this. So how does the picture end up that grey like it was at the beginning. Because when I took a picture that I want to color grade, it already has some vibrant colors in it so it doesen't look that pale. But as it seems it's better at the beginning, when it's that grey, but how do I achieve this? pls help me

WOW! All this info and training for freeeeeeeee😊

Thanks! Great video for beginners. Very helpful!

Hey Marc, I just wanted to say I took a little Screenshot of your video to explain to my viewers what Color Grading is and what it can look like when done right. I hope that's okay? I gave credit in the video itself and in my video description too.

super helpful; thank you!

Love the procedure, can you also share the export settings pf this clip for youtube and instagram

This is true technical information

This video was fantastic. My only hang up was on the masking for the vignetting.. I couldn't get it to invert.

Thanks for the video it really helped me to learned some tips. But I have a question since right now I dont have the filter. But how does the Glow Effect work with glow filters such as a ProMist?

Can you copy those settings for each little scene that you take ? For example if I took a non stop scene then cut it into my little edits instead of adding nodes to each little scene can I just copy it

Thank you! White balance changes everything! How come Colour Space Transform didn't change anything for me?

This Was Amazing!!! Great Work!

this is amazing thanks Marc!

bro you look like pat cummins he is an Australian bowler edit - thanks for the tutorial

Marc! Very nice work man! That is so cool. love that you love to do this, that is great & REALLY made me smile & happy knowing that, thanks for sharing. I would really like to learn how to video edit & become good at that. Besides practice practice practice which for most things people say & I agree with that. Can you help me be more specific with the detail of that. I would like stop my current work (the work is great), I just want to film, edit, I WANT TO CREATE video content, that excites me. I have looked at various on line courses and none have seriously hit the mark from yet. I am hopeful you can assist and or help me out. I would like to thank you for taking the time to read this note & I am hopeful to hear back from you. Thanks again!

thanks dude , can u put the original video so we can practice on it?

I would leave it like IT was after The conversion lut xD

thank you , the motion effect part is a bit hard to understand.

Damn i guess i gotta start watching videos to understand this video XD. Wanting to learn how to color grade but I dont even know what nodes or luts are. is it the same process even without log footage? the files are so big and im not a pro so i just use the normal recording mode.

Life saver thank you for this walkthrough!! Luckily this is the first editing program that I decided to dive into!! And I LOVE IT! Thanks! 😍🙏🏼✨

Wait... using an A7S III and you're having problems with the noise? What ISO did you shoot at? That camera with the 12 megapixel sensor should have alleviated your worry for noise reduction. Unless you were shooting at an ISO too high.

Hi Marc thanks for the video tip its amazing i have a question regarding the PC should we use the same settings you mention earlier for mac viewers ?

Excellent video!

In the video when he is deselecting all the corrections to see how much it is changed how do you do that?

bro how do you get the wide aspect ratio? really want to know, my a7siii only gets 16:9

Very nice guide) Thanks😊

Thanks for the video! I really want to know how to color grade just to get true color. I know that's not a thing and very subjective 😅 but I do videos that include swatching nail colors. I'm not necessarily looking for a beautiful, cinematic edit. I just want my colors to look accurate. If you have any tips for that, I would love to hear them! 🙏💜

I don't understand why there is no preview once I click on color grading which makes it impossible for me to edit. Could you please help?

How do I know what input colour space to use? I don't understand what input colour space, input gamma, output colour space and output gamma are, and what I'm supposed to choose for each.

Really helpful! Subscribed 👍

Nice editing thank you for this video

Once you feathered the area around model, are you supposed to track? Seems like your clip has the model pretty much in the center. Great video and simple to follow. I wish you named the nodes so that I can pretty much use it as my workflow.

Thank you for this tutorial. It was very helpful. Is it possible to copy over the nodes/color grading to another clip? Let's say the following shot is of the woman crossing the street, but from a different camera angle or shot. How do you carry over the color grading changes to the next clip without having to manually grade all over again? Thank you.

2:32 my screen doesn’t have the drop down menu 🤔.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

thanks! very valuable video!

Amazing video! How do I copy these settings to the next clip? And you go through eash feature very quickly, do you know any youtube videos that spend alittle more time to teach the newbies to Davinci like me? thanks Rob

Learned a lot. Is there an easier way to do coloring correcting? I'm a person who doesn't have a lot of time just doing correcting. Thank you

Very good tutorial. Could I Complete Cilour Grading with fewer nodes or steps?

@1:37 you should've added this fix for windows 10 as well. i dont have that setting.

Hi, I hope you can answer this question soon. it's kind of time sensitive! when I am in color mode and I add the nodes!! Where it says library and setting top right side. Color space transformation. I can't add anything because it is not highlighted. I deleted my project and the free version hoping it would change! How can I change this? Thanks

what do I need to do with the color space transform I have an action camera and its D-Clike 10bit?????

Now, is there a way to save all that work? So when a new project I create I can use the same settings and just play it instead of redoing it all again?

My colours are always looking off when I watch it back on a different monitor, but I'm using an ASUS, what would I do to make it look the same? There isn't an option on my divinci that I can see at least 😁

What enthusiasm and hardwork for this... amazing. Just to ask, are these features available for hp?

What about color shift settings for windows?

I'm pretty new to Davinci but have been on premiere for 3 years. I like the grade I just made following this but I'm wondering how to replicate it throughout the whole edit without having to do this to every single clip. Is there a quick way most youtubers do it then this would be the more professional way paid gigs do it? I also bought the LUTS, they really do look super good and like ARRI. Glad I purchased them.

Can you apply these same nodes to multiple clips? I’m making KZfaq videos and have a lot of cut up scenes and it would take a year for me to apply all these edits to each one?

And i thought buying luts was enough. Besides noise, everything was in free version of Davinci Resolve. Also the color grading was for one subject in frame. It might be different for multiple object. Especially for vignettes.

Very helpful; thanks!

i dont have mac display colour profile for viewers option why??

Thanks for this. Appreciate the simplicity of you teaching! If you want to carry over these settings on other video clips, is there any shortcuts? Or do you have to do it manually?

I dropped the Color Space Transform in the note box, the Settings button is still disable grayed out. What can I do? Thank you for your time.

Exelente video. Thanks ✌️

Best video. I’m learning so much. Is there a way to apply the same setting (after set) to multiple clips?
