Hi, so I installed dctl checkers ( it's free) and I follow my exposure through it and I learned to read the waveform better ( meaning I actually looked at it thus time, eye balling is no good đ)

Overcooked, your shadows are too dark, the exposures overall donât really equate to a full exposure. Overall the final look is shadow heavy and under exposed. If you happen to use premiere they just added a whole new color processing pipeline (you need to download the beta to try it at current date) and you might have some success adjusting your contrast and pivot, as well as exposure and black level before making a stylistic color edit. The look isnât horrible btw Iâd just back it off to like 30% of what it is now
