I'm amazed by how much confusion there is on this topic. Darren explains it all succinctly and gets to the point very fast. Well-done!

I'm a beginner and I'm trying to understand what is going on here. Could you point me to a good theoretical explanation of what is the point of color space transform, ACES transform and so on? Someone explained it to me as if you are trying to get a wider color space while you are editing, but I need to understand much more than that. The gentleman in the video uses settings for Arri, but I use Fujifilm cameras, so what should I choose? Does color space transform make sense only if you shot it in LOG or also rec709 8 bit video? As you can see I am a complete beginner in terms of color grading. :)

@petermccabe7182 10 күн бұрын

@@matango1979 CST can be used on any footage. What color space are you shooting Fuji in? Log or Rec709? You would do a CST from one of those to Davince Wide Gamut

Great tutorials! Learning a lot! And NOW I understand why using a larger colour space for the timeline is advantageous, even when then "funneling" down to a smaller one i.e. Rec.709. Kudos!

this just blew my mind. Ive been using the ASECcct transform for my sony SLOG3 for my FX3 and FX30 and at first in your video im like "oh crap, im doing this alllllllll wrong!" but then when you showed the color space transform in the first node and then what you did in the last node to bring it back from Davinci wide gamut to R.709, i realized im doing the same exact thing....just with ASECcct vs davinci wide color gamut. You gained a sub im loving your content

Thank you Darren, I learned something new again:) I have always used Color Transform first. I've played around with it a bit and it's definitely a good prevention against clipping, but higlihts get flat and I lose DeFacto detail before the image would even start to clip. It also makes the image much more sensitive to work. Your other method seems better, but it also makes the work too sensitive.
