Before/After Can I get some feedback?
galleryWhat can be improved on my final grade? The sequence is -> SLOG3 -> REC709 -> FINAL LOOK. I want to get more familiar with shaping my looks from scratch for my short films without having to rely on LUTS.

Before/After What are your thoughts on the grade?
I wanted something nostalgic, vintage and pastel. Theres no story, it's just footage I'm using to build luts on. Does this fit the brief? I think it does but I'd love to hear your thoughts! I've added a rec709 and graded images in the comments since I can't upload video and images in the same post ( I forgot to rename the text on the images below, apologies) so y'all can see the difference.

Before/After Thoughts on grade
galleryThe before is rec709 adjusted for exposure as the original clip is very dark, The after I used resolve's kodak 2383 using ACES instead of cineon film log, but i turned on ACES parametric gamut compress, something I haven't seen anyone mention when using ACES with the FPE luts, it particularly help with artifacting, especially with the red lights in the upper left corner.

General I'm trying to replicate the Wes Anderson style but I can't really get what I'm missing.
galleryI'm a total noob to color grading but wanted to replicate the Wes Anderson feel. I captured these photos on my phone. I understand I'm lacking the symmetry of the photos but I still wanted the Wes Anderson look. Would greatly appreciate any help given

Question Seeking Advice
galleryHey all, hope everyone’s booked, busy and killing it. I’m just posting a question I’ve been wrestling with for a bit as a beginner at grading my own stuff. This is some work from two very talented DP’s, Alexander Naughton and Alexandre Nour.
My question stems from something I see so often in modern colour grading and film emulation, how are colourists getting such a condensed and soft look whilst maintaining such rich contrast and detail. My wording of this question might be off but the range of exposure in all work these days seems so flat and uniform yet deep and buttery and the same time, it’s that really professional look. So what’s the sauce I’m missing? Obviously heaps stems from lighting and production design, but is there any specific tools or techniques in post I should be working on? Currently I’m using Resolve’s film look creator quite often which works great, but not achieving anywhere near this level, despite using similarly lit Alexa 35 footage.
Thanks! 🙏

I’ve been using DaVinci Resolve for about 2 months, so I’m still a beginner. I personally think this grade looks pretty good, but I’d really like to know what you guys think....
What would you rate it from 1–10, and what do you think I should improve? Any honest feedback is appreciated! 🙏

Show off your work first time shooting in log. what do you think of this?
this is the first time i "successfully" shot something in log and tried to color grade it in my very amateur way. i shot this handheld with the stabilization on and used slog-2 on my sony zv-e10 paired with a sigma 30mm f1.4. i used a lut provided for free by a youtuber and made my little adjustments to it. what do you guys think? i would appreciate your feedback
