I’ve purposefully avoided the colour tab in DaVinci Resolve as too complicated to even begin to understand so this was actually a welcome introduction. Granted some of the stuff zipped way over my head but still helped get me out of the wilful ignorance phase. Thanks.

Happy to hear that Martin! I think Nodes and the Color Grading tab is both the best part of Davinci but probably also the most scary part! Luckily, it's actually not that bad to understand when you dive into it, so I'm glad this video helped 🙏🏻 When you get the hang of it, a whole new world opens up! So it's worth investing a bit of time into. Good luck!

i've always been told that the transform node goes at the beginning and then you do your grade. i.e. correction "log to rec 709" first, then light, detail and color changes. just goes to show, everybody's got their own way to do this. you'll go nuts trying to sort it all out. i know, i've watched 1000 videos on this topic for the past few years! lol from ChatGPT: When using the Color tab in DaVinci Resolve, the Color Space Transform node should generally be placed at the beginning of the node tree, before any other color correction or grading nodes. The reason for this is that the Color Space Transform node is used to convert the input color space of the footage to the working color space of the project. This ensures that all subsequent color grading and correction nodes are working with a consistent color space. If you were to place the Color Space Transform node at the end of the node tree, after other color grading nodes, it could potentially cause issues with the color accuracy and consistency of your final output. So, to ensure the best possible results, it's recommended to place the Color Space Transform node at the beginning of your node tree in DaVinci Resolve.

@AlexBjorstorp Жыл бұрын

There is no truly right or wrong but it's up to workflow, however you are losing out if you do it as the first thing. The reason being that Rec.709 is a small color space, meaning less nuance in hue, luminance and saturation. The camera however, capturing the footage in LOG will have captured a lot more information since it's a larger color space. So by doing it as the last step you will be grading in a larger color space and have a lot more nuance available for it to then at last be converted properly into Rec.709. Completely up to you how you do it but personally I get a lot more out of my footage by grading in a larger color space - and you will see the professional colourists here on KZfaq do the same, the likes of Cullen Kelly and Waqas Qazi :)

I know there’s a million and one different ways to color grade in general but I’m learning nodes in resolve since I’ve been stuck with Pr for a while and every video I watched do bodes different but in a way the outcome is completely different for the way things are done, specially the color transformation

@AlexBjorstorp Жыл бұрын

There's no one way to set up a node tree and depending on workflow different things might make sense. To me the essentials are: Color Conversion into Rec.709, making sure it's the last node in the tree that converts to rec.709. Then color correction is the first thing that happens, making sure the image is as close to "real life" as can be. Then for the subjective color grade in which there are a million different ways to go about it. I get that it's confusing sometimes but it's all about understanding the basics and building your own workflow from there 🙏🏻

@vionaelbe 3 ай бұрын

Learned a lot from this video, thanks! :) I do have one question.. When you click on your first couple of nodes (before the conversion one at the end), the color management that I did in the conversion node disappears, and in your video it doesn't. How do I fix that?

I haven't tested it but I would think putting the grain on an adjustment clip on top of your original clip and then using the blur in the next node will do the trick.

Layer vs Serial Nodes? If with Layer nodes, you do have a bottom and a top layer (basically hierarchical)… Isn’t that basically the same as two serial notes? Especially if you do it with a mask like you did? Also as a noob to video but with a lot of experience in photo editing. I understand the corrections very well what I still need to understand is in video you would probably have to make a correction for each scene, so how to like link it with your timeline and stuff and have multiple different ones…. But I guess that’s in another video or I will figure it out.

@AlexBjorstorp 11 ай бұрын

The difference between a layer and serial node is that a serial node always takes from the previous node and continues in the tree, whereas the layer node allows you to have multiple nodes that take the standpoint from a different or the same node in the tree. Example: A serial node will work this way; Node 2 inherits from Node 1, Node 3 from Node 2 and so on. For layer nodes it could like this; Node 2, 3 and 4 all takes the starting point from Node 1, allowing you to mask out and change individual things on each of the nodes 2, 3 and 4 to stack your edits before they are blended together. Without showing you a practical example I'm not sure if it makes sense and I use parallel nodes way more than layer nodes but there are some instances where a layer node can be super powerful. I'll look into making a video on that very soon as I think it's a great topic, thanks for bringing it up! In DaVinci Resolve you grade each individual clip but there are ways to copy grades and group clips to make the overall process really fast and efficient even with large projects with a lot of clips! I have some videos showing some of these workflows, shoot me a DM on Instagram and I'll be happy to direct you to a few of them if you'd like! 😊

Hi thanks for creating this tutorial - what if I've received footage and don't know what camera it's been shot on. What do I set up the input color space and gamma to?

@AlexBjorstorp Жыл бұрын

You are welcome! What I would do in your scenario is try to see what gives some great or at least decent results. There's no way really to identify what profile has been used if you don't have a file on it. So, if it's shot in LOG I would start with the popular brands, Canon, Sony and Fuji. Try their LOG profiles and see what works best. In the end it's not important that it's the perfect conversion if you don't know what it was shot in but that you are satisfied with the outcome and most log profile conversions in Davinci will get you a step forward. So I would go trial and error, starting with sony s-log3, then canon log 3 or 2 and then fuji and see what I like most and then grade from there.

That’s what I normally do but this tutorial was meant to be very basic and simple and I’m actually not sure I started doing that at the time of making this video (as it’s more than a year ago) - but definitely the way I do it now and recommend to do it 🙌🏻

hey! 07:00 why does the fourth node affect the previous ones?

@AlexBjorstorp 5 ай бұрын

It doesn't affect the previous Node but the 4th node in this case is the Color Space Transform which takes the footage from LOG to Rec.709. What you're seeing in the source monitor is what's outputted at the end of the node tree and since the Node was turned off and then is turned on around the 7 minute mark, it becomes visible what happened in that node as well :-) But the 4th node is affected by what happened before, not the other way around :-)

Hey can i ask you a question? Lot of videographers in my area use sony 10 Bit cam for shooting and they dont use pictureprofile instead they use light inside creative style. So my question is what will be the input CST for these kind of footage?

@AlexBjorstorp Жыл бұрын

I'm not sure I understand the question fully but if by Picture Profile you mean LOG and Creative Style you mean the 'Sony Presets' then I would assume they are shooting in Rec.709 and in that case you shouldn't use a CST. Having 10-bit and shooting in Rec.709 can be just fine if you want to get to an end result fast but even with 10-bit you'll have less room to work with than if you shoot in LOG, say PP8 (S-log3). So the shorter version: If you use a creative style I don't think you need a CST as you won't need to convert the footage :) Hope it makes sense and if I misunderstood let me know and I'll try to answer the actual question!
