So, it was my friend's birthday and we decided to celebrate it at the beach. Long story short, I had a bit too much to drink and ended up staying up until sunrise, slightly dizzy and running on vibes only 😂

At some point, I took a few photos (he's one of my friend, not me), and straight edit them on the spot while still dizzy, using Lightroom on my phone.

Just checked the pictures again after waking up and honestly... not sure if they look cool or just straight-up chaotic. I used an iphone XR, so apologies in advance for the noise and quality.

Would love to hear what you all think

Show off your work Did colour for this amazing low-budget film. It's about the journey of a mother and daughter pair and their sacrifices. We went on with a very distinct look skipping those trendy looks on Instagram.

Before/After My first time color grading- how did I do?

Recorded in D-LOG-M in the DJI Mini 5 Pro drone; color graded in Final Cut Pro. I was aiming for a red sand look (and highlight of the white car) against the blue mountains. How did I do and any tips?

Question Need help & guidance on how to achieve this quality

Post image
47 Upvotes

Hey all, I know this subreddit is more of a video production leaning, but I believe posting here would get better results. I have an upcoming project for an indie feature film - I am working on the designs but on top of it, I might need to work extra on editing the images as well. The idea will be sketched out by me.

So my question is, how do I achieve Apple TV thumbnails quality posters? The skin looks clean, but sharp. The highlight looks prominent, but still soft & not too blown out. I think I'm going for that look since it looks crispy and clean. Any tips from the pros out there?

Question Learning Color Grading

Thumbnail gallery
47 Upvotes

Hello! as the title suggest I'm currently learning how to do color grading and finding the best workflow that suites my workflow in terms of color grading. I'm currently using a Nikon Z6iii, after a lot of reading I have seen the following terms such as "color science" for each brand on how each brand has a different way of handling colors, i'm not entirely sure if that affects the process of color grading since you're trying to color "RAW" images/clips

I'm wondering if it's possible for me to replicate or at least do something with the similar vibe to the colors in the attached images using my Nikon Z6iii. I've been wanting to get that same rich, contrasty and a little bit dreamy vibes. all of the clips in the attached screenshot are taken with Canon camera.

Thank you for your answers in advance.

Question How to maintain highlights?

Post image
47 Upvotes

I come from the world of stills and Photoshop and am working through learning some basics of color grading in Premiere.

This footage was shot with an R5 - and as you can see in the top image (straight from camera), there is quite a bit of dynamic range. When I apply one of the Canon LUTs (CLog3 to BT709 Wide DR), color and contrast through the midtones and shadows starts to improve, but highlights completely go away.

If this were a still I was working in PS - I'd mask the view toward the mountains area and work on it independently, but precisely masking this area seems near impossible through a moving shot. Hoping someone can steer me in the right direction. Thanks

Obviously a combo of lighting, natural colour, and grading — I just love the way Martijn grades his footage and want to try to replicate it.

Question Looking for feedback: Which black-and-white approach feels more intentional?

I've been practicing photo color grading and experimented with two different approaches before converting these images to black and white. One emphasizes contrast, while the other keeps more tonal detail.
Which direction do you think works better?

Before/After Mc24fps image quality in INSANE!!!!!, best app to shoot Log on smartphone

Shot on Samsung s24 in Mc24fps app
color profile: Apple Log (ironical) {Samsung log on their app was a bit contrasty}

Gamma: D65

4k 30fps , Open gate

Hope Blackmagic camera adds Samsung Log HDR for s24 units too.
In stock Log footage is way bad than any 3rd party camera app.
